Bernie Ecclestone has nothing to do with how F1 is run. He owns the commercial rights and so deals with stuff like getting GPs on the calendar, sorting out TV deals, the official DVDs and games.

You're 100% wrong, i'm afraid. He was there on the saturday at the very least, because ITV interviewed him about Lewis's accident. I'm reasonably sure they did on the sunday as well, because they like to squeeze the most out of any Hamilton story. In any case, i just wanted to know what your theory was, because you didn't make it very clear.

Ugh, for some reason i can't help taking the bait from you...

if you go to [www.sutton-images.com] and search for Anthony Hamilton, there are at least two pictures on the top half of the page of him on the grid at the Nürburgring.

Honestly, all of this faff simply because i wanted to understand what you were trying to say...

Quit your complaining, Lewis would have won this if Alonso had been P1 on the grid i feel as he has been mighty quick all weekend, we had an exciting GP last time at the Nurburgring, you don't get two consecutive exciting races is F1 ;)

Two things i've learnt this weekend:

1) Last years Honda was excellent around the Hungaroring, even if no where else.
2) Winklehock should not have been replaced, Yamamoto is complete dog doodie.

About the first thing: what have you learned from this year then (you can say that it has proven to be not true, or this year is an exception maybe ;))

About the second thing, that's right, but neither they should have replaced Albers by Winkelhock ;)

Hamilton's father was definitely at Nurburgring on the saturday, because Louise Goodman (ITV pit reporter) spoke to him after the accident, and we saw him going into the medical centre.

and like Senninho, i'm pretty sure he was there on the sunday too, i seem to remember them asking him how Lewis was feeling.

Yup thats true, Peter Windsor on the Speed broadcast spoke to him on his gridwalk and I distinctly remember Hamilton Sr. mentioning that Lewis' only care after the accident was what gridspot he'd end up on.

yes Karan you're right, i remember that now. Anthony talked to someone from ITV too and commented that Lewis would start 10th and that's all that was on his mind now.

Is it now FIA policy to intervene whenever 2 Championship rivals are in the midst of a passionate battle?

I didn't say in charge. I said he works with the organisers of the circuit to help them get on the calendar.

And brnco, n00b ;)

Some interesting BS from the British press:


Fernando Alonso is reportedly on the verge of quitting McLaren after a traumatic weekend at the Hungarian GP.


Alonso's already fractious relationship with his new employers and team-mate Lewis Hamilton plumbed new depths at Budapest, with the Englishman revealing that the pair were no longer on speaking terms after stewards ruled that the World Champion had deliberately impeded the rookie.


According to The Guardian, 'McLaren insiders expect Fernando Alonso to leave the team at the end of this season.


'Alonso, who was signed by McLaren at the end of 2005 at a cost of $25m a year, 16 months before he first raced for the team, has confided to friends and advisers that he has not received the priority treatment he expected as a double World Champion.


'Unless these problems are addressed he could negotiate a release from his contract, which runs until 2008, at the end of the year and possibly return to Renault or even take a sabbatical.'


"Ron isn't about to change the way he runs his team after 25 years just to accommodate Alonso," a team colleague told the newspaper. "If he's going to win, then he'll have to beat whoever is his team-mate first."


Alonso himself did nothing to dampen down the speculation by refusing to deny that he is contemplating leaving the team. "We'll see" was the extent of his response.


Although the top end of the 2008 driver market was considered to be settled, events at Budapest have put the F1 rumour mill in full swing. The Daily Telegraph claims that Renault 'have suspended negotiations with Giancarlo Fisichella' to facilitate Alonso's return.


Team boss Flavio Briatore, though, has denied that he's about to make an approach for Alonso.


"I know nothing about that. We have never had any discussions about that," he insisted. "This is a McLaren problem, not mine."
