    Your post is rather insulting and I have notified the moderators of this forum.

    Some of us actually have connections to the teams. Some of us have connections with journalists who cover F1. And some of us care enough about the sport to gather facts.

    You make it sound like what Alonso did was a good thing. Its like for instance, you have been just hired for some high level position at a company. At the same time your CEO brings is someone who is also good, but making less than you. You work on a project together and find out your co worker did a great job if not better and he is rewarded for it.

    In the mean time you find out your head of design is trading confidential info to one of your competitors. Your CEO has no idea whats going on, same with your co-worker and instead of letting your CEO know whats going on, you call the SEC. You tell the SEC that all upper management including your CEO is part of this scandal. Why would you do it? because your a jealous, disgruntle employee that cant stand your co-worker. For me that goes against any business ethics. Its just wrong, you have an issue with your teamate or co-worker, thats between the both of you. No reason to punish the whole organization because of your misery.

    Alonso did a good thing by blowing the whistle. It was the right thing to do.

    Where he went wrong was by not doing it earlier and by actively using the Ferrari data.

    This was a case of industrial espionage and attempted sabotage and the penalties were way too lenient.

    Personally, I have reliable sources involved in F1 and I am not the only one on this forum who has them.

    Same here.

    I know some FIA, F1 team members and journalists personally (with their email addresses). I also get the occasional insider email from folks who don't want their names posted here.

    But none of that was even necessary to follow certain cases like e.g. the demise of USF1. Folks like Carol or SRTMike figured that out just by using public sources long before others chimed in.

    Maybe you can give Aircorn their email address, so he can look over their contracts.

    you're the worst of all of them! you make statements as fact which turn out to be completely fictional, as i've pointed out in the past, and you berate anyone who disagrees with you.

    Some make comments based on their enthusiasm as exuberant fans, but I consider what you do 'big noting' and 'bullying'.

    Calling my post insulting and reporting it is just one example of that. My post happens to be 100% correct.

    really? you really think FA was hired as an 'equal'? Ron Dennis has ALWAYS publicly stated that there is no #1, but the past shows that it's just drivel... next topic...

    Come on Aircon, lets tone it down a little. Your tone does nothing for your argument or karma of the community if you are right or not.

    It wasn't insulting.

    yeah...sure.

    OK...so THEY'RE wrong! maybe you should stop quoting your UNreliable sources then.


    They'd say "pardon? you got my email address from WHO?? Sorry, never heard of him"

    Say what you like, but it's an accurate assessment of some individuals' posts.

    Sadly, not enough of us take the trouble to go back and look at the 'factual' posts, the put downs to anyone who disagrees, once the claims of fact are shown to be wrong.

    I'm also at a loss as to why some on here are so happy to cut down and ridicule drivers so much, but that's another story.

    Thanks, much appreciated.

    I have been wrong many times (as have my sources occasionally), but I don't make them or their stories up.

    Didn't use the word liar, but basically told us we are all full of ****, which IMO is the same as being called a liar.

    Tifosi12 has said the following about me in differing posts:’

    ‘You sound like a very biased person who has a very distorted view of F1 and Alonso’

    ‘I thought your "letter to Ferrari" was stupid’

    Please excuse not having links...after being treated like this by a moderator; I lost all interest in FerrariChat

    Tifosi12 also stated that

    ‘Folks of different opinions are what starts a discussion. A chat site without discussion is a dead site.’

    Seems to me that discussion is OK as long as it is in line with Tifosi12’s viewpoint. I had a number of private messages of support over Tifosi12’s comments to me … it’s a shame however that others felt they couldn’t publish their thoughts…maybe fearful of also being bullied?

    Ohh...am I going to be banned now too for expression an opinion???
