Ferrari appears to have violated the team oder rule today, would you

  1. Penalize Ferrari for "team orders"

  2. No penalty

    Does anybody know when the FIA will make a decision (if at all) about the team order violation?

    For some reason I thought I heard/read (?) somewhere that this won't happen until September. If that's the case, the whole thing becomes pretty pathetic in the sense that the FIA then can play God about potentially throwing out a WDC or WCC candidate or come down with a points reduction that is meaningless.

    Anytime after Sunday's race will be too late.

    Yes, during today's broadcast the annoucers said that the earliest the matter could be dealt with is the WMSC meeting in September but that it had not yet been put on the calendar.

    I think this plays in Ferrari's favor to have the final decision delayed as that will give time for some of the stronger feelings to settle.

    They're hoping that their decision won't effect the title fight. Otherwise known as ducking out.

    Anyone who didn't think Alonso had Massa's measure doesn't know F1.
    Anyone who did not see the potential for a wreck if a legitimate pass was attempted doesn't know F1.

    Yep.

    Massa is #2. Always has been, always will be.

    Ironic:

    When Ferrari is called onto the carpet for this use of team orders, ...
    sitting at the head of the table will be Jean Todt ...

    ... Who made the team order call between Schumi and Rubins in Austria '02 ...
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yHPQSOziDw

    ... which is what caused the team order rule in the first place.
