2) Whitmarsh is being a hypocrite. When his engine got a performance break on the grounds of 'reliability' (aka bollocks), he didn't mind. Then when Renault got their performance break for the same load of bollocks he was up in arms. Look how smug he was this afternoon on the BBC after Renault's engine was pegged back again. He deserves everything that's coming to him.


Yeah well, Hypocracy is the name of the game in F1, and if I held a team boss' arrogance against the team they ran I think there'd only be Sauber left to be a fan of in the whole sport :p

Well, that's more or less the situation I find myself in currently.

It's not bad.

I think Ferrari was right to complain about the European Grand Prix last year. I don't think you can't compare it with the situation these GP.

jerome seems to be slipping more and more away from his teammate. He'd probably have a bunch of excuses as to why, but still it does not do good to him I'm afraid. If he wants to have a shot for next year he needs to outshine Timo Glock.


He made a mistake in his first run and in his second run it started to rain.

Yes, you complain once, and to the proper authorities.

You do not spend the next 3 days after the race crying to the media about it and bringing the sport into disrepute.

Ferrari and Sauber were the ones who rejected going back to the old regulations.

You're not wrong.

Re: diffuers.

Good.

The FIA, Mercedes and Renault have all made their bed and now they have to lie in it. Neither Ferrari nor Sauber offered any opinion on this farce until the FIA asked them for one last night, where of course they are going to want to keep a set of regulations that benefits them.
