actually, it states that the hypothesis arrived at using the fewest assumptions is almost always the correct one...


small, but important, difference.

It's called common sense, some people have it some don't! I leave it to you to guess which group you fit in. :rolleyes:

Exactly. Formula one is a team sport, as such teams should be permitted to make decisions that optimise their chosen team strategy.
Team orders have been part of F1 for decades now. To think that there is not a team on the gird today that does not apply them is naive.

Luca Di Montezemolo is to discuss team orders with Max, presumably before the Brazillian GP.

So expect Charlie Whiting to inform teams that it's legal, Ferrari will order Kimi to let Massa by, the stewards in their ignorance will penalise them, Ferrari will protest, McLaren will object to their protest, and we won't know who's Champion until the last week in November :rolleyes: :p

Or the team orders won't be banned, but...
Kimi lets Felipe pass for P1 and no problems.
Moments later McLaren uses the same opportunity with Heikki allowing Lewis to take P5, but... amazingly they'll become the first victims of "no team orders" rule and... Stewards add 25 seconds to LH's and HK's final times, which drop them to 7th and 8th and Massa becomes a WDC!

With this scenario, however, Ferrari has a guaranteed WDC, because drive throughs can't be appealed, no matter how mad the public is. That's why 25-sec will be given, not a disqualification, which can be protested. :p :

I can't beleive you are bringing this up. What, you suffer of hypocritical sindrome? You know that's incurable, right?

After you defended Kovi letting Lewis getting by, now you are against it?
I am speechless.
