"will you stop him playing tennis then?", referring to Montoya's famous shoulder injury, to which Whitmarsh replied "well, it's very difficult to play tennis on a motorbike"

Bunch of sore losers!
They could explain also why they are being beaten also by Red Bull, who did not have also in the beginning a double decker diffuser!

It's just sour grapes. Adrian Newey built Red Bull a car without a double diffuser and if it weren't for Brawn, they'd be the class act of 2009.

I read that quote a few days ago, the grapes De Montezemelo has been eating must be so sour they're almost poisonous. Never mind the mechanical faliures/qualifying cock-ups/poor strategy/no fuel read-out/the no.1 driver having ice-cream waiting for a restart and not being bothered/everything else

Yes, Ferrari is indeed a strong campaigner in this season's battle for the ROTY award.
The sport will find a way out of this mess.
"I don't think we should be used to finance (the manufacturers') R&D because they will produce that engine anyway" said Monisha Kaltenborn.

Ease off of Räikkönen, he had a faulty KERS.
And would YOU sit in an open-cockpit car, with faulty electrical motor known to electrifying the chassis and giving out shocks, in pouring rain?
I got Pointed Opinions and I ain't afraid to use em!

BTW, thats Räikkönen with two K's and two N's. Not Raikonnen (Raikkonen is fine if you have no umlauts though)

Somebody forgot to to warn Felipe-Baby of all that. And the rest of the KERS-running guys.
Stay home, Colin Kolles!

You do realise that Kimi had already retired from the race when he was seen with the ice cream? He wasn't waiting for the restart, he was out.

Yes, I do. The argument on possible KERS-induced risks, does not apply to Raikkonen, only to those that were to restart. Therefore, the main pilot having an icecream does not hold as an argument. That was my point.

According to Ferrari's press officer he hadn't actually retired, the team were hoping to fix his car, so there was evidently a case of conflicting reports coming out of Ferrari.
Anyway, back in topic, Ferrari's hypocrisy in view of the secret veto they have had all this time, and the special financial bonuses they have received means that this team has sunk even lower in my eyes that I thought was possible. If Di Montezemelo thinks he is going to be a driving force behind a FOTA break away series in the light of all of these sour grapes and dodgy deals, then I am truly appalled at his hyprocrisy and total lack of personal integrity.
My favourite teams: Minardi, Forti, Osella

I realise that that was what Ferrari said afterwards. Quite a different thing
"Other than the car behind and the driver who might get a bit startled with the sudden explosion in front, it really isn't a major safety issue from that point of view,"
