Grand Prix

Although "be careful" could be a coded message for "don't overtake", you could very easily do the same thing by just slowing down a bit... send a radio message "you need to take it easy on the engine" or the driver could say the tyres lost it. Or just get stuck behind Alonso and say "he was too good, I couldn't get past".

Given his demeanour after the race I do not think he did anything deliberately, a 21-year-old would a)need a lot of persuasion to lose their first F1 win b)not be able to act so convincingly happy afterwards.

You're just looking for conspiracies where none exist in my book.

Anything, absolutely ANYTHING that Ferrari are involved in, I view with a deep scepticism.

Without going too far into things, Ferrari are ruthless in promotion, including refusing magazines access to test new models if they do not like the articles written of them, by said journals.

I honestly view everything they do with suspicion. Even Peter Saubers dismissal today appeared to be full of holes and caveats e.g. No, we did not enter into a conversation with Ferrari in which we agreed to hold position, which appears to indicate there was a conversation about something...

No, bit cynical about Ferrari

'Fernando is faster than you, repeat, Fernando is faster then you, do you understand?'.

Could have simply said something like that

It's just a bit of fun - I visit 'the aliens are here' websites too

It's interesting that Mr Z (who doesn't really 'follow' F1) said the Perez incident was fishy.

So his opinion was as educated as yours?

You and Mr Z are both as clueless as each other? At a guess.

You guess wrong.

You guess wrong.

More like "Dumb and Dumber" then, eh?

Ok, point taken.

Carry on carrying on.

Well, I believe he was under coded orders to not overtake the Ferrari. Partly because of what actually happened, partly because F1 has a lot of form for this, and partly because there was a lot of motive for both Sauber-Ferrari and Perez to do it.

I don't like it when it happens between teammates, but between teams it p1sses me off.
