So are you saying it was a heads up for FA and his enthusiastic followers that the Anglo-Mob is looking to shove a cap up someones ^<< :p :

No, Mr Tazio, what I relate it as that I would be wary of Ferrari.com forums after such a English-media led witch-hunt against the Scuderia as witnessed post Hockenheim.

After all, when we get somebody here claiming Alonso is over-rated after Spa, a complete knee-jerk reaction fuelled by dislike, and those people have strangely been subdued since Monza, you have to question the motives of certain posters in every forum.

A correct sentence, but what a shame this man will not actually spend any time in prison.

The thread entitled WMSC Decision shows no dissent.

We can presume the infiltration by lovers of the Anglo-Mafia masquerading as Tifosi was short-lived once the reality dawned.

Typical trolling, and not worth any sensible consideration. Certainly not worth claiming 70% support of your anti Scuderia view.

But, when you have no other stick to beat with, a weak twig is better than a leaf.

Prego.

Tazio, here is a gem of a link from Ferrari.com -

http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2008...ne.motorsports

"According to Dennis, Kovalainen was simply told that Hamilton was much quicker and he took the decision himself to allow his team-mate by. "The only thing we advise drivers is the respective pace of the other driver and they ultimately call it," the team principal said. "Lewis was nearly a second quicker than Heikki through the race and when he was told Lewis was quicker he just let him past. "He knew that was the only way because the longer he would have held up Lewis the more difficult it would have been for him to have regained the lead. It was a tremendous sporting gesture and it's what being in a racing team is about. True team-mates do these things because that's the way they are."
There is unlikely to be any follow-up from the officials, with Dennis explaining: "Heikki was troubled by oversteer and wasn't able to match Lewis's pace today. But it is a mark of both his professionalism and his sportsmanship that, aware of his situation relative to Lewis's, he made it relatively straightforward for Lewis to pass him. It's a joy to have two drivers who are not only super-competitive but also super-cooperative."


As expected, any criticism of Ferrari by Mclaren fans is weak and unprincipled. Much like Mr Dennis and Mr Hamilton, both of whom are proven liars and hypocrites.

It is no wonder, perhaps, that their supporters follow suit?

Forza Ferrari.

The difference between the two scenario's, as was pointed out just a couple of months ago was the fact that Mclaren carefully briefed their drivers before the race and there was no need for careless radio transmission's, and upset drivers who had instructions sprung on them.

Some teams are just better at executing team orders than others and do not make the viewing public aware of just how they do it. Ferrari unfortunately scored a massive own goal and brought something to the attention of the FIA which many of the teams probably didn't want disclosed..OWN GOAL!! ;)

I actually don't care about the drama. That is why I stay away from the tabloids.
There are too many Italians that are overly concerned with image. (is that the "own goal" that you are concerned about?)
And if the real difference is that Heike doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve like Massa or that Ferrari should have been more profoundly in collusion, than I don't see any substantive difference.
At the end of the day Ferrari made a decision in real time (to ignore the rule) as opposed to it being premeditated.
They got a fine and paid it
:s ailor: I hold these truths to be self evident
This whole thing reeks of one of Italy's greatest contributions to the English language.

Vendetta

Hypocrisy is in the eye of the beholder on this one!

This is what amazes me. When someone deems "not Tifosi" makes such a statement, they are simply called haters, biased, blinded by Mclaren, etc, etc, etc.

You can easily support Ferrari and what they bring to F1 in terms of history and tradition, yet choose not to ignore when they cheat. The same applies to any other team.

I thought the fine for teams orders was rather stiff though. Would have been much cheaper to simply send someone to the copy shop and give Mclaren a full set of plans for the F10. :laugh:
