Reject quote of the year?

Post by noisebox »

A Toyota spokesman on the decision not to sell the team:

"We stopped working on the 2009 excuses in about July and had developed some really good excuses for not winning in 2010," said a team spokesman, "there are no plans to sell the 2010 excuses to a new entrant."
"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"

How can you call that a Reject quote? It was full of epic win. About time more drivers slagged off their teams.

Piquet's soapbox speech on inexperience? That was Piquet, no? I don't recall
"Grosjean has a great desire to turn around and look at the corner he's just gone through, too many times per lap or per session, he's always spinning that Renault"

It was Piquet, at Monaco after Buemi crashed in to him, he said something along the lines of 'All these inexperienced drivers'. Hilarious, and it wasn't the first time. Noda-gate anyone?

I think Max's grand farewell must rank high here-------

Speaking after the hearing in relation to the penalty, FIA president Max Mosley said: "I think it's the right decision.

"I think the blame has been placed where the blame should be placed.

"The penalty we have imposed is the harshest one we can inflict, which is disqualification, and it is complete expulsion from the sport.

"However, because Renault have demonstrated they had absolutely no moral responsibility for what took place - that's to say Renault F1 the team didn't know, and still less of course the company - it would be wrong in the circumstances to impose an immediate penalty."

As for Briatore, Mosley added: "It's sad because he's been in motor sport for 20 years, more actually.

"It's sad to see a career end like that, but what else could we do?" :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :twisted:

-------

Moselian logic at its best. Anyone would think that he is a lawyer.
"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,"

Felipe Massa: "Alonso was fully involved with crashgate." Excellent, throwing sh*t to the fan before the season begins...

Talking about the high-kerbs at Monza to prevent chicane cutting:

Legard: "I suppose with your draconian ways, you'd like it if they had 30cm kerbs"
Brundle (deadpan): "I'd prefer it they had 30cm spikes to take the drivers straight out of the race"

I rather liked that. Ferrari 2010 is going to be a cracker, I'm stacking up on popcorn already.

Any of Sebastien Bourdais's post-race excuses for not performing as well.

Especially since I think it was actually Piquet who braked too early. :P
