Re: Jean Todt on Team Orders
Vitaly Petrov has suggested a typically Russian solution to this issue, in an interview after Abu Dabi:- Q. Sebastian Vettel gave a big thanks to you to keep Fernando Alonso behind. Did you rather a Red Bull won than a Ferrari? VP: I just want to be champion myself. I don't think he needs to say tha...

Re: "Vitaly, Alonso is faster than you;.... "
All I'm saying is that I get cross when someone is slow at traffic lights in front of me. I can't imagine how Alonso felt. Yes it was a bit spoiled brattish and unsporting, but maybe understandable. I'm not sure about the comparison with Schumi. Schumi never seemed to get Latin red mist, it was just...

Re: "Vitaly, Alonso is faster than you;.... "
To be fair, Alonso was a bit upset. If I'd been cruising around comfortably set up for my third WDC, and my team had decided to pit me so I was in the traffic, I'd be peeved. Then even more peeved when I realised it was impossible to pass on the track. And then staring at the back of Petrov's Renaul...

Unsurprisingly graceless. Alonso's sense of entitlement could fill that f-ing Ferrari theme park all on its own. Which indeed might be why Ferrari lost. Did you notice that at the beginning of the race Fernando's car was buried on the grid under two hundred reporters, the King of Spain, fifty hange...

But Kubica deserves a mention. The TV footage of his 'go kart' racing part of the race was some of the best I have ever seen.
