    Firstly, thanks to Tillman for the edit.

    It's 'dodgy' enough in here without going all P&R. ;)

    You do know he's flagged in Montreal many times, right?

    If anyone here's good to comment, he is.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    You can surely explain to us WHY the overtake wasn't legal and the FIA and everyone else is dead wrong in their judgement...?

    Sigh.

    The GREEN FLAG was being shown after the first yellow light. Because of the distance between the lights (~350m), a flag trumps a light. When lights where introduced 5 years ago, Charlie Whiting made this clear to the teams and they all fully know the rights.

    Another one to cross off the Ferrari supporter list...

    ***** and moan, ***** and moan.

    You know what's obvious about your posts? Two words: SOUR GRAPES. You're bitter that Alonso has absolutely, utterly destroyed Massa for 3 years. Too bad!

    They simply asked for a clarification and now it's over...I have to wonder if so many people would have jumped on them if this was McLaren doing so? Doubt it.

    Ferrari is always the team that catches the flak and people are eager to criticize them.

    Not surprising, people "love to hate the best."

    The media wouldn't be the media if they didn't take an upswing/downswing to its highest high and it's lowest low. Drama, controversy, scandals sell and they will always skew facts to maximize that agenda, this is just the next on the list.

    That would matter if Red Bull had been at it since 1950.

    This year they competed head to head and one was the best.

    Agree. Nicely summed up by autosport:

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/104655

    Ferrari wanted a clarification, and according to the FIA so did several thousand F1 fans, which the FIA provided. IMHO any of the top F1 teams would have done the same, and they would have been negligent not to request a clarification.

    Bernie's comments are funny, hope he has a sense of humor in front of a German court.....

    Ferrari was soundly beaten this year, I can't argue that. Their car has paled in comparison to Red Bull for the last 4 years. My point is, Ferrari, due to being the most successful racing team of them all, catches more flak for things than anyone else.

    Imagine if Ferrari employed all the "rule bending" tactics Red Bull has the past few years. The press would have a field day.

    One could also argue that Ferrari may have won the Constructor's title if Massa had actually shown up before Monza :)
