Nice article mini, but personally i could'nt give a @#$%& about ferrari, i used to admire and respect the scuderia until the Todt,Brawn,Schumacher era, their arrogance and disregard for fairplay has forever tainted my way of how i look at Ferrari

ESSENTIAL OILS aren't essential unless you're an engine, a gearbox or a twat

Couldn't agree more mate.

Me too.

That´s just the new era., it paid off.....

nice guys finish last

well it may seem arrogant to you guys from the outside but i didnt find it particularly arrogant. Anyone would become that confident after all the success they had. Also if you dont like their methods. Tough luck. This is F1. A sport AND a business. Not Sunday club Racing.
Nice article Mini

Couldn't agree more, no one got to be champion by being nice and when that time comes it will be the time I stop watching F1.

Hakkinen was pretty nice

Due to the voting system in Germany, Governments are always made up of coalitions of different parties. At the last election, an almost unprecidented result saw the CDU/CSU (rough equivilant of the Conservatives) go into Government with the SPD (rough equivilant of Labour)

so was Damon Hill

Tony

"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

thanks for the comments yeh ferrari have been @#$%& lately but i would rather still see them in the sport rather than a GPWC as long as they arent winning

Felipe can't even drive a Sauber yet. The last thing he needs is to be put into the Ferrari!

anyone that has watched F1 for more than 5 minutes can dismis the "nice" argument off hand straight away. Many teams and many drivers have won constructers and drivers titles without displaying the characteristics shown by ferrari

24 Heures Du Mans 18-19 June 2005

The only thing i would like to add is that for some reason they don't seem to work the press to their advantage as well as others.

yes senna was nice but also ruthless but done alot outside the sport as well for brazil.

One of my mates is brazilian and he was saying every time there was a gp on a sunday the whole country would stop to whatch senna thats the presure the guy had on him.

Also in brazil rb has a name that means " u can not fill anyones shoes" and they also refer to him as a sell out and massa has more respect than him

i always thought rubens was very popular amongst the brazilian crowd. but i guess its understandable why they call him a sellout and dont respect him anymore. since he basically settled to be a #2 at ferrari for all the money.

I don't like Rubens attitude towards Michael at the moment, it's like all the years of frustration of being a number 2 are starting to show.

i dont see the problem with his attitude. For 5 years he has been told that after the final round of stops that the team hold station, or he has taken orders to move. Monaco showed that all that counts for nothing.
