F1 » Angry Davidson tells rivals to 'shut up'

It is about time that Honda stops funding and keeping this team going simply to please the backers of Takuma Sato.
As Anthony Davidson said the Super Aguri cars are a botched up job, and there facilities are not up to the standard required to build F1 cars. Therefore this makes the cars unsafe and a danger to others when racing.

This team should be sold to a works team to make it successful.
It would be nice to see an American, European or Far East car builder entering the fray in F1 with a solid budget and real expertise.

Bernie Ecclestone would do well to attract such a group to F1 instead of SAF1, they are not race worthy at the moment.

It doesn't sound like they have anything to sell besides their name and place on the grid. One has to wonder if it would be less expensive for someone to enter as a new team without taking on SA's baggage.

NO U!

Is he any worse than DC? Crashed someone again last race...

I have nothing but sympathy for SA, and would like them to stay on the grid, but Davidson is completely out of line. If SA can't meet a certain standard of performance, then they shouldn't be in F1. This means that if they're being lapped, both the car and the driver need to be capable enough to get out of the way and not impede someone coming around to lap them. Davidson held up Kimi TWICE. Claiming that the car is vibrating too much to look in the mirrors is inexcusable and sets a bad precedent.

His hard luck story may be true, but that doesn't change the facts. They need to get their act together or get out.

Personally, I hope they stay but they need to improve their racecraft.

Even with the old 107% rule they would easily make it into the races. As long as they are not being shown the blue flag they have every right to stay on the racing line. DC is just trying to take the attention off of his terrible season. He really should shut up. DC better be careful who he offends with his name calling as next year he could be lucky to get any ride, even a SA.

Maybe next year Davidson will get DC's seat. That would be rich.

Davidson is right to defend himself against a driver who is past his sell by date in F1. It is time Coulthard gave his Monaco hotel more of his time and allowed a quicker driver into the Red Bull.

As a rookie Davidson had the measure of Webber when they were both in MInardi's, so it would be reasonable to assume that not only would Davidson regularly make the top ten, as Webber currently does, but that he would also be ahead of the Australian driver too.

As for holding Raikkonen up..? Pardon?

exactly my thoughts. And appologies for the brash comment by me the other day.

No worries bounceback. I watched the race very early Sunday morning so my retention was not at its best. I left the door open for that one.

Mike... my mistake. Ive got the flu, so Ive got this antibiotic-induced fog around my synapses.

I might have been thinking about Bahrain, where I remember Kimi being held up by one of the Force India's (Sutil) or one of the SAs (Davidson)... could be wrong about this as well. It's all a little hazy right now. ..
