'''Max Schnell''' (known as '''Sebastian Schnell''' in the German version) is a well-known German race car. Initially appearing among the [[World Grand Prix]] competitors in ''[[Cars 2]]'', Max Schnell has made subsequent appearances in games such as ''[[Cars 2: The Video Game]]'' and ''[[Cars: Fast as Lightning]]''.


==Bio==
==History==
Max Schnell started as a humble production sedan from Stuttgart, Germany. An avid amateur racer, Max would practice alone in the back roads of the dense Black Forest—a trek that eventually caught the eye of a racing team owner. Soon Max was on a professional circuit, bearing the #4, and as his horsepower increased, he converted himself to carbon fiber, dropping his weight and getting into prime racing shape. He’s won more races at Motorheimring than any other World Torque Champion League car in history. A naturally brilliant engineer, he used logic and analytics to refine his build, and plans to approach the [[World Grand Prix]] in the same perfectly calculated manner.

[[File:Cars 2 - szenenbild 03.jpg|thumb|left|220px|Max Schnell, Lewis Hamilton, and McQueen in the German version of ''Cars 2''.|alt=]]
Like all World Grand Prix racers, Max Schnell participated in all three races of the competition as well as the [[Radiator Springs Grand Prix]]. In [[Cars 2]], he was first seen at the party in [[Tokyo]] with the other racers. Max's performance in the W.G.P. was really good. Max went up to the third position on the dirt section followed by [[Nigel Gearsley]] in Tokyo, but started falling behind afterwards. And at the beginning of the [[Tokyo Circuit|Tokyo race]], he at first took the 1st position. But after time, he was passed by [[Francesco Bernoulli]], [[Lightning McQueen]], [[Carla Veloso]], [[Shu Todoroki]] and [[Jeff Gorvette]]. He was the third race car to be nearly destroyed by the [[:Category:Lemons|Lemons]]' [[WGP Camera|camera]], as his engine was blown by the machine near the end of the race. In the [[Porto Corsa]] and [[London]] races, he was seen both times following [[Miguel Camino]] from the 5th to 4th position. During the huge crash in Porto Corsa, he tries to brake before the pile-up. However, he fails and violently collides into Miguel Camino and Shu Todoroki. Soon afterwards, [[Raoul ÇaRoule]] and [[Rip Clutchgoneski]] crash into them. He apparently got fixed and raced in London, and then appeared at the [[Radiator Springs]] Grand Prix.
In ''[[Cars 2]]'', Max Schnell is one of the eleven world's famous race cars that compete in the [[World Grand Prix]], a three-race competition between racing superstars from all over the world, with Schnell representing [[Germany]]. Max is present at the welcoming party at the [[Tokyo National Art Center]], and in the German version of the film, he and [[Lewis Hamilton]] greet [[Lightning McQueen]] when he arrives. However, Max's role is given to different characters in different versions of the film. When Mater interrupts [[Miles Axlerod]]'s interview with Lightning McQueen, Max and the other World Grand Prix participants watch embarrassingly at him, embarrassing McQueen.

Max is present at the welcoming party at the Tokyo National Art Center, and in the German version of the film, he and Lewis Hamilton greet Lightning McQueen when he arrives. However, Max's role is given to different characters in different versions of the film. When Mater interrupts Miles Axlerod's interview with Lightning McQueen, Max and the other World Grand Prix participants watch embarrassingly at him, embarrassing McQueen.

At the first race in Tokyo, Max performs well, leading the pack at the beginning, but falls short soon after, and spends most of his time in the center positions. Towards the end of the race, however, Schnell falls victim to an engine blowout, which was the result of the electromagnetic pulse from the lemons' camera.

Max Schnell attempts to brake to avoid the Casino Bridge crash.

Max later competes in the second event in Porto Corsa, Italy, only to get involved in a large accident on top of the Casino Bridge, which is again caused by the lemons' electromagnetic pulse camera.
