Sato suffers big crash at Jerez...
Autosport are reporting that Sato has binned his BAR in a big way, hope he's ok.
One things certain, if he has wrecked the 007 chassis, isn't that going to severly hamper their test program? |

"Binned"?
"He has wrecked"? The rear wing failed - don't make it sound like driver error

Are we going to see a lot more of these wing 'failures' as the teams try and claw back some of the lost downforce?
BAR were reputed to have a dodgy wing last year, weren't they. McLaren as well, I think. |

Funny how Monster has (unintentionally) reinforced the popular misconception that Sato is still a crasher. Last year he made contact during a race once, and that didn't put any cars out.
Anyway, is there any confirmation that Taku is okay? |

I didn't write those words with any thoughts about his past performances, thats just how I say/write things. Its like if a car spins in qualifying a commentator might say "he's spun it" doesn't necessarily mean it was his fault (it could be a car failure), just a figure of speech  But yes, I acknowledge it wasn't his fault as his rear wing broke (incidentally, when I wrote that first post I was at work so couldn't actually read the Autosport story, only the headline).

I emphasise that I said unintentionally.
