We are the 2005 EFRA Champion!!!

The rain has stopped, the puddles have finally gone away and we have had the chance to reflect on winning the 2005 European Championship with the Mi2 and Teemu Leino. With the weather challenging to say the least, this was Schumacher's first Euro title for some time, but was fully deserved. After qualifying second behind current World Champion Marc Rheinard Teemu won the first two legs of the A final with some fantastic drives particularly in the second leg. Nose to tail for 4 minutes with Teemu always looking for a way past before he capitalised on a very small mistake from Marc - what an exciting and nerve racking race! One of the most loyal (and unluckyest?) drivers in the industry Teemu has worked so hard to bring this home for all his sponsors for which we say 'Thank You' and congratulations. Schumacher would also like to thank all of Teemu's others sponsors because of cause it is a team effort...you know who you are...thank you for your support. The celebrations lasted well into the night (sorry morning!) and this time we were not drowning our sorrows....congratulations to you again!!!
