and people like Jamie and Enoch, that cost Luca his job.

Great job guys!

Is this guy taking media relations hints from Nelsinho?

Who should be worked on next?

Please explain. Luca was never going to keep his job, but Jamie and Enock were his two biggest supporters on the internet.

I think being a sec slower than 19th is what actually cost Luca his job. 400 millons dollars budgets are not stoping to read F1rejects nor any other site in order to make his decisions.

I, now, wonder how Ferrari managed in the past their drivers without internet.

I don't even know why did I took time to answer this.

Get a life mate, no one who's 80+ seconds behind his teammate at the end of the Spa race will keep his job for long.

Still, you could hardly blame this site and it's glorious leaders for him losing his seat.

I think the first post was sarcastic though.

Yes, the first post was absolutely hilarious!

It's been well established that sarcasm doesn't work in print.

I'm going to agree with the first post. I, like Ferrari, hadn't realized how embarrassingly poor Luca's performance was until I read about it, thanks media! :lol:

Actually, yeah, I read Bert's original post as being sarcastic, so it's all good. :)

Although thanks to those who immediately leapt to our defence! :D Stay tuned for our ramblings on the outrageous and tragic Luca dismissal in the next podcast.

Fair point, but too obvious a target. May I suggest Trulli?
