But never know when the heart changes.... :wink:

But Kimi is on board for sure...imagine the Ferrari bills from next year on.. :lol:
With his luck Kimi's red-car stint may well be cut short.

As for MS, I think he should retire before people cast him out. He has a reputation as a successful driver (I am not going into ethics here, just technical, don't bother to flame me) and should know when to call it quits.

For those of a superstitious nature Felipe is now the 6th Brazilian to earn a pole position, the 6th Brazilian to win a race, in his 66th start, with car number 6, it was win number 6 for Ferrari this year, in the year 2006

Funny you should say that Kaps, I predicted this at the beginning of theyear and, quite rightly, people thought I was mad.

But since Turkey Ron Dennis has made a couple a couple of innocuous but quite favourable comments regarding Schumi . . . . . . . . . . . ? ? ?

While it's not impossible, I find the idea improbable. Kept toying with the notion of having Alonso and Schumi racing for the same constructor and it just doesn't add up. It would be a derogatory move for both drivers. Even for McLaren where they are still fighting to improve a somewhat shaky reliability record. Then again F1 is a small world which simple folks like us cannot grasp the true meaning of. I for one vote against a move like that.

The World Motor Sport Council has found the National Sporting Authority of Turkey (TOSFED) and the organisers of the Turkish Grand Prix (MSO) guilty on all counts.

The organisations have been fined a combined total of 5 Million US dollars.

Earlier the FIA summoned the above organisations for breaching the FIA Statutes, the International Sporting Code and the 2006 Formula One Sporting Regulations after Mr Mehmet Ali Talat was invited to present the winner?s trophy at the 2006 Turkish Grand Prix.

Mr. Mehmet Ali Talat was introduced as the President of the Turkish Cypriot state on TV.

Another lovely little earner for the FIA.

I recall vividly being enraged and insensed :furious: when the presentation was made. It's a f****** outrage I exclaimed. My wife told me to calm down. I now feel totally vindicated by this decision. Never again shall I have to recognise a member of an unrecognised state! :x
