Formula 1 Chat / Ferrari drop the ball again
« on: Saturday, July 26, 2014 »
So Kimi sits there for 10 minutes and watches himself get knocked out in Q1. WTF are Ferrari doing?

Well, you have a point. It's quite rare these days that there's a race on you can watch, or any news worth reading. The sport is just dead. Most of the forums are gone now too.

Nobody gives a damn anymore.

Have a great time! Also, if possible, post a few pics! Always love that track side stuff of yours.

Once again it's the FIA trying to keep the championship going to the end of the year. F1 has suffered it's lowest turnout and ratings this year for a long, long time. Not since 1986 has it been so bad.

Frankly, the V6 was a very, very bad idea. Add to that the fact that most races take place when the VAST majority of F1 fans are asleep, and you just can't sell the sport anymore. Sure, Bernie gets his fee from all the communist/dictator/oil sheiks, but they in turn don't get a thing out of it other than their own yes men patting them on the back.

That's the biggest problem right there. I used to never miss a race. Now, it's actually quite rare that I see one.

I was on vacation and didn't see it. I saw the highlight of Massa and Perez acting like idiots, but that was it. Funny how they blame each other when both of them jinked towards each other...a completely stupid thing to do since BOTH of them had half a damn acre to either side of the track they could have used.

Punks will be punks.

I really don't know that Jenson has to work too hard to "save" anything. At this point, no top driver in his right mind would drive for McLaren. They'll want to move to a winning team.

Yea...Rubens has always sort of played the victim. If it was at one team, that would be something. Two? Not very likely. Three? No way.

In fairness, Hammer, Brawn GP didn't have the development during the year that everybody else did. Sure, they started with a car 1.5 seconds faster, but by the 4th race the jig was up. Everybody else was introducing their own blown diffusers and negated that advantage. That's why Jenson almost lost it: He finished the year in the same car he stated with while everybody else got better and better cars.

38
In Jenson's defense, he hasn't had a car he could push the limit with in 3 years. That's no fault of his. I still think he has a few good years left in him.

I've never thought that Jenson was "real" championship material, but he is a good, solid driver. I think he'll get one more extension with McLaren...at least until McLaren get their act together somewhat and start challenging for wins. At that point, they'll shop around for a go getter driver I'm sure.

Pedro was just a stool pigeon for Alonso. He didn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. He just hitched his wagon to Alonso and road as far as he  could.

Which turned out to be nowhere.

Although it never came out, I am STILL of the opinion that the whole mess was put into play by Alonso. I mean, why else would anybody do it? Think about it:

- Alonso starts getting his ass handed to him by a rookie (Hamilton)

- Desperate, Alonso and his money people tell Mike, "Whatever it takes, here's a blank check".

- Mike calls Nigel, offers him double his salary if he can help out.

- Nigel steals the setup data they were using and sells it to Mike.

- Alonso suddenly, as if by magic, improves. Literally, overnight.

- Nigel hits Mike up with the idea of getting new and higher paying jobs at Honda using their recent "success".

- The interview takes place, but Honda smell a rat. (And rightly so)

- The rest is history. I mean think about it. There is only one man in the last 10 or 12 years that has been involved in EVERY CHEATING SCANDAL THERE IS. Alonso. He was in every single one of them.

That can NOT be a coincidence.

Again, why would they copy anything? It was all digital data. The both of them went everywhere with laptops, not cases of paperwork.

That's what happens when you let idiots wiki.

Think about it a second. How in hell would Mike's wife be able to copy anything? She never worked at either place and didn't have access to get past the receptionist, let alone anyplace even remotely secretive.

Secondly, can you just imagine being at the McLaren center or at the Ferrari factory and there being banks of servers along side rows of computers...

and a Xerox machine?

LMAO! Yes. Sure. Right.

I've heard that tall tale too, but point in fact it was Honda that turned him in. He and Coughlin went to Honda for a job interview with a CD that contained all kinds of data. Stepney had said that it was his body of work along with Coughlin's. Honda was very suspicious about the whole affair and blew the whistle.

It of course turned out to be data from not only Ferrari but McLaren as well. Although McLaren was the only team punished for it when only Coughlin knew anything about it.

He didn't photocopy a damn thing. He just downloaded it all to a CD and walked out the door with it.

Not true. He did that all by himself by stealing all that data to begin with. He did that all by his lonesome.
