I think the Red Boss is correct, yes it was worth seeing once, but the track is crap and F1 should be racing on decent width tracks where passing is possible, the follow syndrome strikes again............

Luca's an idiot and Bernie has it right...if Felipe doesnt win the WDC then Ferrari have no one to blame but themselves....It would be a shame that the WDC has to come done to the team that makes the least mistakes rather than simply the best driver in the field.

These comments by Bernie seemed to indicate that his falling out with Max is serious. In the past, Bernie had been careful not to criticize Ferrari due to its close relationship with Max & the FIA. This is an interesting development.

I think that the final straw for me & F1 was the Singapore night race. If anyone is a clown it is Bernie Eccleston who is only looking to leave as much money as he can when he eventually "pops his clogs" & I don''t think he has any interest in the actual racing anymore.

It is a poor spectacle for viewers. I watched MotoGP earlier in the season & felt almost the same way though as an ex racing motorcyclist I shall keep watching that, hopefully they will scrap it?

ps I spent 10 years + as a comp secretary of a Kart Club & handled entries for Jensen & Louis, they are what has extended my interest until now

As a postscript to my earlier comment, by MotoGP I meant the night race from Qatar

1. Good for Bernie, firstly for coming up with such a witty retort (wish I'd thought of it) and secondly for actually being a mult-billionaire (seriously), hats of to you pal. 2. When has post-1950 F1 NOT been about Ferrari and the FIA v. The best British Team? 3. All the controversy these days is about marketing, and we on Crash.net are feeding the machine just like everyone else. Controversy sells. When did any of you last post a comment about a redesigned William wishbone?
