Would the only thing worse than losing the F1 WDC title have been winning it? Would every story about Alonso's championship needed to include a paragraph about the German GP and the contrast to how RBR ran their campaign? Would it be safe to park a Ferrari on the street?
Would have been no problem parking in HB considering how few F1 fans there are around here I doubt it would have been that big of a deal really.
if you are looking for a silver lining that is it...but at least we could debate tainted v. legit to kill time til Bahrain 2011....
Does that mean it will be OK for Flavio Briatore to come in and lead Ferrari to a title next season? CH
I think "moral" and "F1" don't belong in the same sentence with each other. Anyway, why would there be a problem with Flavio? If he lost some weight and dyed his hair he would be no different than LDM.
You catch my drift. Having a known scoundrel would at least lower the prevailing level of hypocrisy by one.
I prefer my snakes to have loud rattles It might be different if the concept of "shame" still existed in F1 (or any part of public life) but until then pin a big red S on him and get back to work
To be honest, I got jeered at and told to sell my car the day after it happened, I took it in jest, but there was some real dislike of things Ferrari. I asked one guy if it would put him off buying a Ferrari..a resounding yes was my reply. I doubt it would though. I don't think it would have mattered to the casual watcher of F1 and in the bigger scheme of things avid watchers of F1 cannot deny Ferrari road cars are a thing of beauty, so I'd say its safe.
We've got a Jiffy-Lube right around the corner so no problem. They even check the air in your tires when they change the oil. First cabin all the way.
