Lol, you cant be serious to belive that a bunch of tossers writing in facebook makes any different for some team who they sign, better would be to make sure meeke has the cash needed.Quote:

better than crying, would be to try to collect a budget instead of sending mails.Quote:

Ofcourse it wasn't totally based on that, but Ford seems to put weight on social media, new Fiesta colour scheme will include Facebook and Twitter logos...Quote:

A combination of the 3, or another reason.
But with the finacial crisis in the world, money of this size is hard to get by!
History will tell!!
Ok, somebody other will drive, not Meeke and that's it. Nothing special.
I think it's probably a combination of all 3.Quote:

You would have to ask where is the whole project going. The business plan is flawed, they will never compete with VW or Citroen, the manufacturer isn't interested, there is no money, DR Has lost his Midas touch, no testing and a driver who plateau'd years ago
The one thing Meeke has is potential.
The UK media is already running articles on bad image of this decision of BMW.
