Barrichello accuses his team for putting different tyre pressures on his first stop.

That's funny. I speculated about that during the race as his times dropped so dramatically. Deliberate or not, I believe it was the tyres and bad strategy that cost him the podium finish.

Always the team that's at fault with him.

Someone ask Irvine what the punishment is for blocking on that straight at Interlagos.

Still appreciating the irony of the head of the GPDA chopping people up like a WVM on the M25.


Irvine didn't do that move to block but to lap another car (Bernard)
The reason I always felt the Irvine 3-race ban was a bit unfair was because the thing that ultimately caused the accident was that Martin Brundle had started to slow on the straght & unfortunately for all 4 of them Bernard pulled out to pass Brundle at the same time Irvine pulled out to lap Bernard & at the same time Verstappen also tried to pass Irvine.

Had Brundle not had whatever problem he had Bernard, Irvine & Verstappen would have perhaps gone 3-wide but there would have been enough space to make it down to turn 4 without flying over the top of one another.


After his crash in qualifying Liuzzi apparently had to chase a marshall who stole the Force india's steering wheel :o

The incident with the bandit was in full view of the cameras. I remember seeing it but there wasn't a chase as the article makes out.

Yeah he just asked him to give it back, he was a couple meters away.

The marshall probably did it on purpose, you can see him watching the wheel in his hands then starting to walk away.

It also happened sometimes with Button this season. It happened with Schumacher a lot of times. I think it could happen, and I will not believe the team have spoiled Barrichello chances.

FIA = Ferrari International Assistance

Schumacher understeered into Montoya at Malaysia and Brazil he moved twice, but the stewards were never going to penalise Ferrari.


I've always felt the opposite and every possible rulechange to hit Ferrari.
Like when they got penalty for unsporting behavior when they did team orders (which were allowed). Don't se anyone in FIA WTCC call team orders unsporting although it ruins the fun.
