Yep, I'm outta here, been thinking about Sauber for a while. I'll be back when either Stoddart has gone or Minardi are no more, I can't take this shit, I feel truly sorry for the guys at Faenza who put up with this shite.......but you're right, I do…
We have to race, unless we want to call it a day and drop out of F1. Is that what you guys want?
Minardi in this guise.....yes it would be preferable.
'Blind faith in your leaders can get you killed.'.......(can't remember where this quote was fro…
after Paul Stoddart and Horner met at an engagement in Melbourne and the Minardi bossed agreed that if Minardi finished in the top eight and ahead of Red Bull in the race then they would give up their points and position.
Yep looks like the words…
If they race, if they don't race, it's immaterial. This is still a grand cock up either way. Stoddart does'nt deserve to race. Minardi do, does that make sense?
I don't buy the arguement that its TOIT's fault. Its not them who wants to run an illegal car.
Spot on! So it all comes unravelling......It was about time. Playing F1 the way he has the last few years he has been extremely lucky. Don't expect too…
Harsh but I'm going to say this once. TOIT should'nt have agreed to do that. Our esteemed F1 boss needs to learn that he must get his house in order. Sometimes a short shock can do the power of good.
The GP really should be a Sydney street circuit event incorporating the SHBridge
Hmm somehow I think the possibility of race cars flying into the drink may ward this off the 'Possible GP location list'. However it would be good fun. I can imagine …
Melbourne must be a pretty boring place if the only place that they take race drivers to do PR is at the zoo.....ESPECIALLY if it has been done before!
From what i hear last year Superfund were very happy with sponsoring Minardi and they even upped their sponsorship, I cannot for the life of me understand why they would go to Midland for less exposure. I'm waiting to see for sure that they are not …
amazing stuff getting such a prize sorted, Junior! All I ever give away is stickers and t-shirts
Ahh but he's sold his arse apparantely, it now belongs to a guy called Butch and he can have it any time he likes!!!
Wilson screwed up going to Jaguar and I wrote a letter to Palmer (of which I got a reply) to say just that. Past history at Stewart/Jaguar should have dictated that he would have been better served staying with Minardi.
As for that old 'hack', that …
Yep he'll need it. I think this pairing is going to be very very close indeed. This is what Mark Webber needs though, to prove himself against teammates on equal terms. This is something he did'nt really have at Jaguar. He was the number one boy and…
To the Bahrain government's horror, in the morning of the Bahrain Grand Prix the organisers wake up to find that the track has been stolen, due to contractual agreements with FOM the goverment have no choice but to make 'alternative arangements' and…
Wrong, this time the blame lies in both of their laps. Stoddart for not signing him to a Minardi contract early enough and GCM for not making a convincing enough arguement for Stoddart to do so....
Indeed Yoko, however those Mercedes days were a very long time ago. Since then he's done MORE than keep his outfit afloat.
Junior I was'nt referring the specific thing with the BMW engine, it was a more general look at Mr Sauber.
Sauber should be the text book way of how to do business in F1 for Stoddart. No song and dance, quietly go about your business and make no big deal about it......Concentrate on the job in hand instead of winding up every bastard in the pitlane......…
Mr Xmas, as I've said before I don't doubt Mr Stoddart's business credentials (apart from buying the rights to make kit form Austin Maestroes!!) It's his F1 business sense that I don't believe in.
