Tillman,
Interesting theory, but the only reason I doubt it is because I would bet that Ferrari would have liked to have MS secure it in front of his home crowd!

It's simple.

For MS to win, both JPM and RB had to finish poorly. What better way to encourage that result than keeping RB from starting the race?

It's team orders, just more subtle -- this time they didn't tell RB :-)

Apparently he was on his plane ready to take off when schumi won - he came back to the track to celebrate

F1.com says it was electrical and they couldnt sort it out before the start. The car ran fine on the warm up though

Did anyone ever say what happened to Ruben's car at the start of the race? I haven't seen it in any of the online F1 magazines.
