Basically, Michael Schumacher equalled this major record of Ayrton's. Then he bursts out crying at the conference (you really have to see it to believe it -_-).
The interviewer began by asking MS how he felt, to which he replied as happy and exhausted. Then...
Interviewer: "I'm not sure if you are aware but this is your 41st victory, which puts you equal 2nd all time with Aryton Senna, do those records mean a lot to you?"
MS: (sigh) "yes... it does mean a lot to me" At this point he looks down and is breathing heavily. "Sorry."
Then he began sobbing. Got worse. The interviewer had to go interview other people instead of him, the champion. After a couple of minutes MS appeared to regain enough composure, and the interviewer said: "You are obviously very emotional about this. Why does this mean so much to you?"
....to which MS answered: "Ask me another question, please."
My mouth literally formed an O when I saw that part. Seriously, this is like straight out from a RPS fic! (My fics, anyway.)
