And it's done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The server is busy, so do not be surprised if you can't open the link :p :
What?
I have to say that I have surprised myself, because... I'm happy! :bounce: Probably the old Ferrari-love has come out again and I'm biased!
I feel sorry for two things though:
Hamilton - superb racing on his debut season, he has given everything from him to prove his worth and... everything ruined in such way... what a harsh experience for a rookie.
What will happen to Prodrive? :mark:
Waiting to hear wheter it relates to drivers or constructers championship or both.Quote:

I don't know how can they dissociate them? Drivers points, as Constructors points, were won with the same knowledge being used.Quote:

Only way for Ferrari to win I guess.
Now, if they don't manage it next year also, they really are useless.......
Kimi WDC
Ok, be nice, no provocations and don't get provocated. :)
Edit:
And don't mind my bad spelling. :D
WOW!
Still no word on whether its driver's, constructor's or both.
Don't get provocated?!
Well, there goes FGP for 2007! Only thing I can say since I already said wow somewhere else! :)
Silly. Cheating should be punished and unless there's been a miscarriage of justice it just has been punished.Quote:

Wow, so I've seen my last f1 race. It feels strange.
Breaking news. All F1 websites stop working...
One of the most interesting questions is the future of Hamilton. If Alonso has been associated with Renault, Toyota and etc teams, then Lewis has been associated only with Ferrari. The big question is: Would Ferrari really sack one of their current drivers in order to hire Lewis???
Maybe Coughlan's - I scanned all of the pages onto two CDs and got my wife to shred all of the evidence so it would be easier to return the dossier... excuse may have swayed things against McLaren. Plausible yes, likely no, but not necassarily incriminating.
Bye bye pit passing, bring on meeting room passing.
Well that sncks. Ferrari are handed yet another championship.
That being said if Mclaren did do wrong they should be punished, and this alleged ruling certainly doesn't seem too far fetched given the potential severity of Mclaren's actions.
It wasn't the spelling, but the idea! If someone provokes me, I'm by definition provoked, so what can I do?! ;)Quote:

I'm very interested about the evidence.
Don't write anything which might get you banned the next day. :p :Quote:

Maybe this is the moment for a change in F1, a change for the better, better rules, better ruling, and better racing.
I heard that the news are no longer at autosport? A joke?
yes! Bye bye Massa.Quote:

I couldn't care less, what's that exciting about winning cheaters?Quote:

Because Lewis is better. I'm not convinced that Massa or Raikonnen is any good when the face a uphill task, seems like they lose motivation. Fighting your way up from the back of the field. I rate Lewis very high, making the best out of a bad situation.Quote:

We got way too excited:

Clarification: WMSC yet to decide on verdict
By Steve Cooper Thursday, September 13th 2007, 15:09 GMT
The World Motor Sport Council has yet to agree on a final verdict, despite our earlier newsflash suggesting otherwise.
Sources have told autosport.com one of the options currently reviewed is to exclude McLaren from both the 2007 and 2008 championship - in line with the World Motor Sport Council's decision in July.
However the FIA said no decision has yet been made, although a verdict is expected imminently.
I'm yet to see Lewis fighting his way from the back to the front in a F1 race, on the other hand Kimi and Felipe already did that!Quote:
