They didn't single out Ferrari, instead Ferrari singled out themselves with that rediculous radio traffic :rolleyes:

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

all Ferrari were guilty of was making it too obvious. They still did the same as all the other teams have been doing and so the right result came out of the hearing.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Nope, they were guilty of the offence, perhaps like many other teams, unlike the other teams they were just stupid enough to get caught by their own public actions

If Button lost speed because of Alonso then isn't it unfair that Alonso takes over?

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Didn't get a chance to watch much of the Monza race.. I did though see Lewis go out (nice to see a driver hold up his hands and say "Yep, my fault")

News for next year is that Lotus has ended their contract with Cosworth and will run Renault engines next year, will be interesting to see how competitive they become after the switch especially if they keep Jano and Hieki as drivers

Not sure what you are talking about there. When did Button lose speed because of Alonso ?

Also Lotus will be called Team Lotus next year using the old name they entered under F1 before. This season they are Lotus Racing

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Iirc, Button and Alonso had a minor touching at the first corner at which Button lost part of his diffuser (?), resulting in a loss of downforce.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Was suprised to see Vettel lasting so long on the option tires...

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Alsonso lost part of his nose as well. Seeing as Button stayed in the lead until the first round of pit stops and both seemed to be evenly matched I don't think it was much of an issue.

I think Button just went too far on the downforce setup and should have taken a bit of rear wing out just not as much as the others

Not seen this posted anywhere yet:

Formula 1 sponsors form alliance

Unsurprisingly, Bernie thinks they're "silly"...

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Is it me, or is it increasingly obvious that the main thing holding F1 back is Bernie Ecclestone?

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Most say there's two people holding back F1.. One of them is Bernie, the other used to be Max Mosely but is now Jean Todt

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Bernie should have retired ages ago.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

Well, I think I agree with Bernie of this one. They are sponsors, if they don't agree with the strategy then they don't sponsor the sport. The sport does not need more super-corporate influence on it, it needs less.

Re: Formula 1 2010 Season [may contain real time spoilers]
 

But without sponsorship would the sport exist in it's popular format ;)

It's like TV, how long do you think that ITV/C4/C5 could survive without adverts... so surely the advertisment companies should have some say in the sport.. What is needed is a happy compromise
