Michael Schumacher: "My only fatherland is Switzerland"
Michael Schumacher is one of the most admired athletes in Germany. One of their myths and pride for the country that has vibrated years and years with victories in Formula 1. Now drive for purely Germanic training as Mercedes. However, the seven times it takes time living abroad and think that he has strayed from its origins.
This emerges from a controversial Federer told the newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Zurich: "My only fatherland is Switzerland," he said of the country where he has lived for 15 years.
'Schumi' is not afraid to show their admiration for his current residence. "Switzerland is pure harmony. Here I am more than a hundred percent happy. There is nothing more beautiful. The home is where you feel happy, and that is in the sea of Geneva," he said referring to Lake Geneva, close to where you his house.
His words have caused great unrest in Germany. "How should we understand this, 'Schumi'?" Asks the newspaper Bild, the most widely read of that country. "Erase Germany of its heart one of our major sports idols?" He asked after the tabloid. The weekly Focus found that the best champion in F1 history "has already been fired from Germany." Other critics who lives in Switzerland only to save on taxes, though he says it does for other reasons.
