F1 » Button breached contract, says 'disappointed' Brawn

A pathetic attempt by Fry to save face while actually revealing what two-faced liars Brawn management are. This after he was quoted as saying they offered Button what they thought was a "reasonable salary", which they were not going to budge on! Small Fry indeed! These people have no shame. Lord I hope Mr. Heidfeld escapes their clutches.

F1 » Alguersuari: F1 without testing like 'a slaughterhouse'

Two points. 1. F1 engineers have often stated that these vehicles have more in common with jet aircraft than road cars. These projectiles are very hard to drive as has been stated by the majority of current drivers. To think that an driver for the lower tiers of the sport can jump into an F1 car and set about breaking lap records and winning races is naive. Shame on the FIA for not permitting tests for new drivers and requiring more experience before granting a superlicense. 2. The management at STR has developed a reputation for bad managemnt of drivers. This practice of training a new driver and then cutting him loose to chase after the next flavor of the moment is damaging to the sport.

F1 » Ecclestone tells Silverstone: Sign now or lose British GP!

I agree with BRITFAN, call the bluff. And if it isn't a bluff Silverstone still wins by not becoming bernie's b*tch.

F1 » Ecclestone: I want more F1 races

Hilarious! " Testing costs money and racing brings money." Bernie should have added, "to me" to that statement. He's wrong about nobody needing testing. The teams and drivers need testing as has been demonstrated by the uneven development of cars and substandard driving during races this year, some of the worst ever and dangerous to boot. With the Japanese fleeing F1 there will probably be a date open soon where the Suzuka race used to be.

F1 » Bridgestone to quit F1

richard, Yes you did and I agree that Conti's brand should be on the sidewall. Scottspt, Kumho is ambitious but it is doubtful they have the wherewithal to service a F1 sole tire provider deal.

F1 » Bridgestone to quit F1

Infidel, With the announcement last week of a joint venture between Continental and Hoosier to develope competition and hi-performance road tires you might be right on target with the idea of Hoosier getting into F1.

F1 » Bridgestone to quit F1

This decision by Bridgestone is a testament to the failure of a competition-free single supplier system as an effective marketing tool for tire manufacturers. Whatever advantage such a system provides for the regulators and owners of Formula 1 it is an ineffective way to market tires despite what Bridgestone may officially say, actions speaking louder than words. It must gall Bridgestone to think that Michelin had it right when they left Formula 1, pushed out by another Mosley vendetta. Probably the best thing Mosley could have done for Michelin in retrospect!
