Today it is illegal and what Ferrari did is a slap in the face of all of us followed by lots of lies.
You support this? Fine, I don't.

There is a significant difference, it is not a normal situation - Alonso before the world press with I reckon most of the British journalists there generally hostile to him, having to answer questions without accidentally saying anything that can be used to attack Ferrari?

And you think it is so easy in a language that is not his own?

Honestly it was unpleasant. I understand why Ferrari did it and I am against punishment other than the fine, but it was very ugly and bad for Felipe. Also I missed PR opportunity - Felipe wins a year after his horrendous crash. But maybe they felt that Vettel is threatening the 1-2 and Fernando was, IMO, faster.
Still, what happened is not great for the sport.

Did Alonso whine about Fisichella being faster or what?

I do use a language that is not my own for 99% of the time, big deal we all get used to it and after a few months it becomes a reflex.
Language is not an excuse anymore, not in this day of globalization.

After the courts decision the result will be nullified for the reds. I see it as a Seb win today.

we have to wait and see, I think that they may nullify their WCC points. I personally think that the fine is enough. It's their team, after all.

Agreed, they will nullifie all their points, afterall, it was the most blatant team orders in the whole decade. F1 is in disarepute.

And then it´s the legal side of the biznizz, all thoose who betted on felipe, they got a case now.

In a civil court this can go on for some time.

If fearri fix races, why watch?
