Spygate was the most harmful on this list. Paying a huge fine and hurting the sport in this fashion was the worst. I thought and this is my opinion that the reason why Martin W. took over was a direct result of spy gate.

To the original question I say yes they do. They manufactured a great engine, with some very powerful mapping software that helped RB win. The beauty of a MB or Ferrari is that they have no fear in a partner or customer trying to take more credit over wins or losses. F1 is great and I love being a p...

Alonso is the most pathetic two faced person I have seen..All this time he kept saying he would have no qualms and would invite Vettel to be his teammate while belittling his achievements while he was quietly plotting to keep him away. Calm down!! It's obvious you wouldn't invite a strong competito...

apologies for the error but indeed he did have bad luck Some. And he had good luck too. :) I understand your reasoning, but I don't think it's valid to take just one moment of bad luck and say without it he would have been champion, when all in all without the good luck he had he would never have b...

And even then, others have lost points too where the fault wasn't theirs.[/quote] Yes thats true but that wasn't the point you made originally. You argued that the reason why Alonso was there at all for the WDC was because of unusual circumstances so just trying to show where you may be a little off...

Individual components and assemblies are analyzed and tested. For instance, some engine manufacturer has a 2014 spec engine, transmission,and related drivetrain components on a dyno and are replicating racing not just one circuit, but the entire season. 2014 spec suspension components are on a 7 po...

The thing is, if Vettel was better in an average car, or if McLaren hadn't been so incompetent, or if Ferrari had suffered a 'normal' amount of failure and misfortune, all Alonso's perceived brilliance last year wouldn't have got him into the running. Even if we say Alonso was sublime, it still too...

Let teams test as much as they want but with no test team. so that will limit testing on track during the season just by staff alone. Do you mean that teams can test only on race weekends, at the track designated for the competition? They already do, in all the practice sessions. In fact, every lap...

The testing ban is the most screwed up rule in F1. so you can spend hundreds of millions of dollars on super computers/software have hundreds of developers running these systems which cost more than a mechanic for sure. Then have unlimited simulation testing on these computers but you cant go out on...

Honestly I'd hire Rory Byrne over Newey. Byrne matched speed with reliability years before Newey did in the early 00s. Every fast car Newey built between the early 90s and 2009 was weak with reliability bar the 92 Williams and the 98 McLaren, Byrne had consistent reliability and speed for years wit...

i agree thats why Windsor is in my opinion to blame, he oversold the whole idea

AstoriaisBACK

^^^ Excellent point! all excellent points however one can not discount what Windsor was selling. He had all the connections and was the one most to gain, he was a reporter and had minor/mid level positions in F1. Owning an F1 team would have put him with Luca, Bernie that was in my opinion what he ...

The Speed TV "progress report" from early 2010, in which it was revealed that Ken Anderson's barely-cohate son Jason was working in the design team in a barely-lit office, were a very clear sign that something wasn't quite right. Indeed, the video in question was uploaded on Jan 12th. According to ...

F1 needs an american entry in F1 . A series that touts itself as a world championship needs one of the biggest countries involved in it. From an American F1 fan's perspective this may be true, and F1 would certainly benefit from US involvement - however F1 knows that it will never displace Nascar o...

First of all, looking at murders is different than looking at gun related crime. Or do you only care about people murdered? Cause I care about the accidental deaths, the gun injuries, the armed robberies, armed rape, etc. READ: NUMBER OF PEOPLE KILLED BY FIREARMS IN 2010 1. Brazil - 34,678 2. Colom...

Banning guns is a bit extreme I agree with that much, hunting is a huge sport in America, they have whole TV shows on it, the issue is CONTROL. The US can no longer look at its constitution for the right to bare arms, it's severly outdated going back to their war of independence and to stop, any mo...

Luca has every right to voice his opinion just like Bernie does. What is wrong with this? LUCA WAS RIGHT there are too many rules changes that doesnt make sense. why is it that you can spend every second on wind tunnel but you cant test on the track? Has anyone did a cost based analysis of the diffe...

AstoriaisBACK

This whole thread is a joke. The rules allow a team to ask for clarification, which Ferrari did or even protest the outcome of the race, which Ferrari didnt do. Any other team with this much evidence would have done the same thing and to say they wouldnt would be a lie. Too many monday morning quart...

No i am saying that the marshall was a pit lane marshall, I am not at the track but was at Monza, Austin and Korea all 3 had marshalls at the exit of pit lane that was right past the automated lights.

Red Bull, SB did in fact pass under yellow Twice. Now on the Sauber with Kob. going into the pits you cant give back the place he took, however he could have been assessed a drive through or a time penatlty. Just goes to show the FIA is not on Ferrari payroll.

Ferrari is a team, they never waver from what they are. The drivers work for the team and Massa has no chance of winning the championship so of course they use all available resources to win the championship. They dont hide behind any what if, they are a team and I like that. If Massa was faster he...

It all goes back to what Stefano D said. He was upfront about what they did. All other teams would have done exactly that and if they say something different they are lying. Whitemarsh would have done exactly that, and in fact have hid behind other ways to make one driver go ahead of another, it hap...

I have lost all respect for Peter, I was once a huge fan but after what he was part of at USGP there is no way one can say he deserves to be back in the sport in any capacity. If we was wrong or not does not negate the things he has done.

Everyone saying this is wrong and Ferrari should be penalized should really look at the rules. When Adrian Newey exploits the rules on the design of the car why don't you go crazy and shout out it should be a penalty?? Look the rules are there and it was within the right of Ferrari to do this.

Indeed a great win and well deserved. Congrats to KIMI

I think Red Bull and Mclaren will be bringing an updated wing that conforms to new tests. This may even out the field against any illegal wings that may or may not have been in play in previous GP.

AstoriaisBACK

Massa has been terrible this year for sure, my fear i sthat they will retain him for 2013 as SB comes on board in 2014. that is the only logical conclusion one can make as Perez is off to Mclaren. Massa may be out to PD or NH but I am not sure Ferrari would jump at them for a 1 yr deal when they hav...

Smoke is around fire is sure to follow. the rumor has it that Renault and MB are the ones behind the front wing inquiry not Ferrari. I am sure that Red Bull and Mclaren have some form of wing adjustments that may be illegal. Lets let the FIA do their job now and penalyze them if it is illegal. If no...
