    That didn't happen and the third time he did the same thing he only got stripped of all his points.

    If Schumacher would have been driving for another team then he would probably have been stripped of his F1 driving license a long time ago.
    They definately favour the Big Teams.

    I think a threat by McLaren or Mercedes to withdraw would make them **** themselves. Truth is they wont as winning the championship is great for marketing. Mercedes/McLaren will earn far more than a $100 million for winning it this year.

      Car racing is unbelievably boring....the only good bit is the start


      Bike racing is much better. The Vuelta, Tour of Britain and Tour of Poland today.

      Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



      May the Lord bless this post.

        F1 would be very boring without McLaren for a year or two. Ferrari would get a one, two in more or less every race and that means less TV viewers and that means less money for FIA.
        Just believe and you never know what will happen.

        According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

          which is also why the drivers didnt get punished. best season in years and viewers/fans flocking back.

          Re the fine, was having a read about it and saw that Network rail were only fined 3mill for the paddington rail crash. Puts the fine into perspective, no one died, it's just a book,

            I wonder who will get all that money? Ferrari or FIA? I doubt that they will give it to charity.

              £25m fine to motorsport around the world, esp Africa and the other £25m (approx.) is what they will loose from the constructors championship this year as they will win nothing, this will be spread amongst the other constructors.

              This was all according to Max Mossley today on 5 live.
