    I double checked the rules and yeah they are allowed to give a driver any number of grid position drops.

    Still the fact it happened in Q1 should be a bigger drop than someone impeding in Q3 but we all know the FIA aren't know to enforcing the rules consistently :eek:

    Kobi's Sauber has a Ferrari engine. Please explain why he is in 2nd place qualifying and Fred is in 6th* behind him?

    *Unadjusted for penalties.

    Thanks.

    I know Fred has never won at Spa...perhaps the track does not suit him?

    Bummer - Even knowing what went on, it's still a good one - I'm gonna watch (F/F ?) thru the Speed version later......

    Cheers,

    I hope. That my DVR caught it but it has a bad habit of switching my preset from SPEED to the TV listing channel. Three hours of TV listings when you're expecting a GP can be crushing..

    :eek:

    No doubt. :(

    [hijack alert]

    There must be a better model, surely?..... Some have VPN's (basically breaking the TOS), some run TOR (almost definitely breaking the TOS). Others simply stream "dodgy" feeds.

    Yet more accept what their local guys give 'em.

    It's all good.

    The $MM question (IMHO) is how does Bernie make money from it?...... "National" broadcasters are (should be?) done - Where do we go now?....
