[quote="K"]Well hello again party animals how's business?
Going back in time a bit, what have you got against castle dwelling danish chaps Julian Mayo? I'd be really hurt if I was the aforementioned scandinavian, anyway...
I'll just scupper a couple vicious rumors first:

I don't ware glasses, not even red ones.

I'm not scared of my own laptop screen.

Or to be labeled naive by some bum, yes I know it was rude and I apologize. I'm sorry JayVee. However, don't mistake this apology as groveling a la Julian Mayo.

Ahh, but it is grovelling of a proud kind,

Last time I looked they were all competing under the same set of rules, or are you saying that the only true competition in F1 is between teammates because they are the only ones in equal car?

If that is all that matters perhaps one should follow Formula Ford, or perhaps Formula Vee, there's lots of passing ....

Here's a thought ... maybe Mad Max can change the rules so each team can only enter one car

or three, with only the "lead" drivers setting Q times, and the other 2 duke it out in the pack.

So you don't mind having 2 teammates not on equal terms

The very basic of any sport is fair play

If all the teams employ Ferrari's philosophy of 1 car + helper then I would support that.

Luckily the rest of the field play fair

Eddie Jordan, amongst others, states that Renault WILL quit F1 at the end of the year, leaving their premises at Enstone vacant, until "Schumaker F1 Audi/Volkswagon" opens for business.

And how many things did Eddie Jordan predict and came true since he sold his F1 business

Renault CEO, the one claimed to be behind the idea of scrapping the F1 team cause he doesn't like winning

Himself said they will review the situation in 2007 depending on what happens with concorde.
They are committed at least until end 2007 rumour spreader

What is it with Eddies

Oh please rah, you never heard discussions about drivers not being able to go to Ferrari because of 'the Michael situation'. Isn't that a veto ?
If that was not the case, Starting with Villeneuve and onto Raikkonen, Montoya and Alonso and many others, they all would have loved to take on Michael on equal terms. That never happened, I wonder why ?

For their own selfish interest, Michael and Ferrari denied us fans of 5 years of what could have been fierce competition between 2 drivers in the best car. Instead we got Austria, Indy, etc....
At least we don't have to worry about that anymore

Proof, yeah next thing tell me if I have proof why Barrichello decided to break out of his contract. Kapel you have proof

Ahhh, so your argument is entirely made up of speculation. That explains it.

And Indy was not Ferrari's fault. We do not need to rehash that old argument.

I think though that the main focus on this story is getting Eddie Jordan back in the spot light. I can't see Renault pulling out until the end of the current concord.

Lisyen up, guys, I hope you are right. I don't have any agenda with this, I am a great fan of Renault as I have said repeatedly for years. I do pass on things I have read. That is all.

Ah but you can't answer why Michael never had a strong driver alongside him at Ferrari

Not Indy 2005

This means you are a great great fan of Williams but I don't see you passing on anything negative you read about them or their dreaded gearbox ..... That's all
