Michael Schumacher shot back at Championship rival Fernando Alonso after the Spaniard blamed Ferrari for the 2005 Indy Fiasco. Alonso says that Ferrari wanted to race by themselves and therefore did not allow any concessions to be made to assist Michelin in competing in the event. This is what Alonso had to say about last year's event:

"They wanted to race alone and they did it."

Schumacher shot back at the Spaniard stating that:

"In life, if something goes wrong, it's sometimes hard to think it's your own fault. You'd rather pin it on somebody else because that is the easier option."

It seems that even a year later this farcical event will still not go away. Schumacher seems to have put it behind him, but Alonso apparently still wants to bicker about it.
