Tiger

Ferocious, relentless, and utterly dominant on his own terms.

Michael Schumacher pursued Formula 1 victory with a ferocious single-mindedness that defined his seven world championships, often training obsessively and pushing both man and machine to their absolute limits. He was intensely territorial on the track — his controversial defensive moves and willingness to bend rules to protect his position are legendary — and he alternated between long, disciplined preparation and explosive, decisive action in races. Off the track he guarded his private life fiercely, rarely letting the world see beneath the surface, giving him that magnetic but unknowable quality the tiger embodies.
