That's the one!
Quite cynical, not like last year's race where the Brit ( not in a red car )was penalised for a far lesser ' offence '.

It's a dirty line which takes you miles off the race-track, and with all that, 3 or 4 other cars did it aswell. Doubt you'd get a penalty for doing that.

hah

I'm not Mr Ferrari but i dun like to stay on that theory that they can get away with everything. Head of the FIA slagged them off for 3 months solid, and you can bet yer bottom dollar there's nothing singling them out in the new concorde agreement. Barrichello also went wide at that turn on the first corner and overtook loads of people all mucking about IIRC and nobody's mentioned that O.O

Edit, after lookin' at it, i'm a total liar, it was Button.

Bugger me it's an all out war on Renault isn't it... get this feeling that the FIA and Flav don't get along with eachother so much nowadays.

Ye thas what i thought, but he's gonna get a ban from the FIA though if they're all guilty so it won't do him any good. Guess they wanted to keep Alonso for another year though didn't they so it kinda adds up.

Me neither, sounds like there's been some cheating going on. Pretty poor really. I read the transcript though and it didnt seem damning at all, but then they would have to be pretty stupid to order it over teh radio knowing that its all recorded and traceable.

The fact that they wont contest the allegations though is an admission of guilt in my opinion.

Is it just me or does it seem like Alonso never seems to be too far away when there's a little sly cheating going on? Remember his involvement when driving for McClaren in the Ferrari cheating thing?

Pretty big news.

Be interesting to find out what Alonso says on the matter as well.

I think they should have seen it coming though, with the, supposed, way they treated Piquet he was bound to want to get at them, especially when he had nothing to loose.
