Crashgate allegations continue to pursue Alonso Friday 16th October 2009 - PlanetF1.com Fernando Alonso just cannot shake off the allegation that he knew of the Renault conspiracy to fix last year's Singapore GP. Any hope that the FIA World Council's verdict that Alonso was not privy to the plan would have put an end to the matter has proved forlorn. Not only has Felipe Massa, Alonso's team-mate at Ferrari next season, declared that "of course he knew" and refused to categorically withdraw the accusation despite Ferrari seeking to play down the inevitable furore but Nelson Piquet Sr has once again repeated his suspicions against the Spaniard. "They all knew about it," Piquet told Gazzetta dello Sport this week. "Do you think Alonso would conceive a race where he starts 15th and makes a pit stop almost straight away? It was a perfect plan." Of perhaps more concern to the Alonso camp will be the claim of James Allen, made in his personal blog, that 'Many of the drivers say the same thing privately, but have not wanted to say it publicly.' In an interesting aside, Allen suggests that Massa's incendiary remarks have been motivated by a refusal to be cowed by the imminent arrival of the two-times World Champion. 'What's intriguing about Massa's comments here is that he wants to show Alonso from the outset that he is no pushover and he has no qualms about probing Alonso's weak points, such as the doubt over his involvement in the crash scandal and thus, by extension, his reputation,' says Allen. The impression that Massa is seeking to unsettle Alonso has been endorsed by the Brazilian also warning his future team-mate that he will have to adapt to Ferrari rather than vice versa. "It will have to be Fernando who adapts himself to the Ferrari style and not the other way around," said Massa. "I know how Ferrari works, he has to learn. If I was going to Renault it would be up to me to adapt to them."
There is no doubt that Alonso is a scumsucking -----. Its not a matter of if he will drag Ferrari into the mud but when. That is if he even makes it into a Ferrari. There is still a chance that Ferrari may throw him and his contract out the window before the season even starts. Its a small chance but still there. There is an even bigger chance that he will be turfed during the 2010 season. But almost certain in my mind is that this spoiled brat will not be around in 2011.
Massa is an idiot. Instead of throwing mud, he should set Alonso straight on the track. Oh, that's right, he is painfully aware of the fact that Alonso will most likely drive in circles around him. So he will play the dirty game instead. Sack him already Ferrari!!!!
And when you wake up you can look back at all the posts that said Kimi would kill Massa. You can talk now and cry next season as Massa will be back with more drive than ever before. PS: is Alonso going to paint his pram red now?
I have a feeling that for Ferrari, this seasons "silliness" will pale in comparison to next year with these two as teammates.
Well after last and this years seasons and reading many posts here on F-chat and on the web, I can finally say that the 1980's Ferrari F1 team is back in full force. Ah yes the glories 80's when Ferrari shined the most Q&A Q. What has been the worst season in Ferrari's history? A. 1980 will probably be remembered as the worst season for Ferrari, finishing the season in 10th place with a total of 8 points, although in 1969 they scored just seven points which remains the lowest total of points scored by the team in any single season.
