check the two ronnies out. Since Ferrari are not willing to go for the capped racing in 2010, that other mad shorty is making claims that ferrari can't pull out of 2010 because they have already made commitments to FIA till 2012. The short man is claiming that FIA could inturn sue ferrari if they pull out of racing next year.

Interesting stuff but thats how modern day F1 has become. All the fighting is done in law courts and off track. NOT on the track with drivers and their machines. What a bore.

Didn't watch monaco qual and I am not watching the race either. Will log on to this thread for results and read the comments. Much more exciting that actually watching the F1 race sh!T

cheers

It was great to see all the scenery at Monaco this morning. It truly is a spectacular location. Oh yeah, that race thing--kind of a snooze.

Didn't bother to watch the race. Probally catch it on BBC website where they do an excellent 90sec round up of the race. I am going to drop them a mail to say that the 90sec is better coverage than wasting time showing the actual race. Just think how many more better sport coverage can be done while the F1 procession is going on.

On to another news, Williams has signed up for 2010 F1 season.

"Williams has become the first of the current Formula 1 teams to submit its entry for next year's world championship." ..Linky.

I have never been impressed with the Williams management. Too old and totally out of date. Seems to me Willaims are trying to force their head up the ar$e of FIA and FOM. Perhaps WIlliams hope that in the future, both those organisations will give them "special" treatment. Hell they need it to ever win again.... hahaha.

cheers

A snooze it was, waiting for the GP in Turkey and the Nazi sex addict to give in.

So, I take it that you didn't like his ridiculous suggestion a few weeks ago that both Formula One and WRC (or whatever it will be called) would use the same engines?
