Think it like this, i can taste the bitternes coming from your initial post, your point in this was to accuse other members of hating your your guy.
I someone else, let's say Objectiveposter44 had put up the same link with a neutral commentary, it would be seen as objective and quite nice.
It's all about source credibility. :
JV may have been honest in his opinions, but they are somewhat clouded by his past, Mr Ramirez doesn't have the same baggage.C'est la vie ja taksi tuo.

All this stuff about JV, lets look at the facts....
Challenges for the title in his rookie season in F1, clinches the title the following year.
Has a mediocre season, in a mediocre car with an undeveloped engine in '98.
Joins BAR with his friend and manager, Craig Pollock. Has many mediocre years in an abysmal car, run by an abysmal team. JV still sticks with it....
It's not until David Richards comes on the scene that BAR finally have direction, but JV/CP & DR don't get on, and JV eventually leaves, presumably under duress......
Has three starts in the Renault, but does not have time to adjust....
Joins Sauber, starts to settle in, and shows promise. Despite BMW's best efforts to oust him, he races under BMW Sauber, and continues to improve.
Leaves as BMW replaces him with Kubica late in the season, just as the car comes good.
Personally, I think he still had lots to offer F1, but most teams found it hard to adapt to his radical style of car setup.Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

"I'll always try to back it up" gets a bit transparent when you don't .
Look up irony in your dictionary .
"I don't believe that the teams didn't like the set-up style of his car..."
Ask Patrick Head . He ran Jacques and won .
In this case , JV won in the battle with the ego of the engineer .
And , he won the title the same year .
