Let's go on strike!!!
If we the fans don't take drastic action against the sport for what happened at the A-1 ring then we can only expect to see more of the same **** over and over again...we all know this is not real racing don't we??? If we keep watching then they won't get the picture that we are fed up with this ****!!!
The only way the fat cats who run this joke of a sport will take notice is if we burn them through their wallets! I propose that we organise a "real racing fans" strike of F1, just for one race, to let these people know that it is still the fans who make this sport what it is...we have the power here!!! So I beg you, tell everyone you know through all your forums, websites, chat rooms, etc etc to get together and make this happen! So sleep in, read a book, spend some time with your family, or watch something else for a couple of hours come Sunday...I know it may be hard but it's only one race...and come on we all know what the result will be anyways don't we If it worked, I mean if these boys saw a real dip in ratings you can bet your ass there'd be some changes in how this sport runs! These people need a wake up call!!...and so do we!! Viva la revolution!!!!! |

Sad indeed. |

Ted, i've paid a lot of money to go to silverstone in july, do you suggest i don't go to that either?
at the end of the day, by deciding not to watch a race or 2, we are only denying ourselves, no-one else! |

If you read my post mr v I said only ONE race (i.e. Monaco) just to get certain people's attention! If you have tickets to Monaco this is understandable...but surely us watching at home can afford to miss one race for the greater good of F1!

Seems slighty stupid to me, it don't matter if 10 people watch a race or 10,000 Ferrari will still cheat.

How about we don't watch Hungary - that's always boring, and MS will probably wrap up the championship there!

Marlboro is written on every conceivable advertising space at almost every Grand Prix, how can you not know how to spell it?
