R · 6 Apr 2002, 17:39 (Ref:253617)

Thanks for that, it should be interesting...

Nicholas · 6 Apr 2002, 22:08 (Ref:253792)

I can't wait!

f1grandprixshop · 7 Apr 2002, 01:03 (Ref:253897)

who will do the 1st blood is the question.

i reckon JPM.

mariov · 7 Apr 2002, 01:15 (Ref:253901)

Thsi will be interresting...thanks for the heads up....

f1manoz · 7 Apr 2002, 01:22 (Ref:253903)

I don't expect everything. Everyone is too civil nowadays.

There might be a couple of sly remarks, but nothing more.

Mantis13 · 7 Apr 2002, 17:51 (Ref:254273)

There should have thrown in Jacques Villeneuve for good measure

race aficionado · 8 Apr 2002, 13:20 (Ref:254846)

Is this going to be a "pay per view" event?

f1grandprixshop · 8 Apr 2002, 14:28 (Ref:254872)

I would be nice to watch the press conference on digital tv

Speed · 8 Apr 2002, 14:46 (Ref:254884)

Are you people expecting something like driver's meeting (Canada '01) ?

Yep... They should bring in JV and Irv in place of Fisi and Barrichello. And maybe Ralf instead of Trulli.

Number Juan · 8 Apr 2002, 17:59 (Ref:254992)

could you imagine it........the 4 most outspoken guys in f1....tgf, jv, irv and jpm all in the same press conference? don't know if rafe's more outspoken than trulli, but it would be interesting to see what he had to say when the others started picking on big bro!!

NO..no...Irvine aka the motormouth is the one that should be there.

Jay · 10 Apr 2002, 05:29 (Ref:256141)

Ah geez...that's too much hot air in one room....

Nicholas · 11 Apr 2002, 18:04 (Ref:257438)

Actually, they should invite the whole grid, and points should be awarded to the last drivers standing. Throw in the team bosses for good measure, they could do something similar...oh I forgot, that's what they do at every FOCA meeting

Post your top 6 predictions here

This is it I think.
Juan is sticking by his guns and Michael has nothing to say.

exerpt:
"I have my point of view and I still have the same point of view," Montoya said. "For the stewards, it was a racing incident and so we will see what happens from here on. I'm not really going to change the way I approach the race in any way.
"You've got to race and that's what you're here for," said the Williams driver, second in the first two races and fifth in Brazil after fighting back from the rear.
"He (Michael Schumacher) made this one move down the straight and I thought I could go down the inside. I guess I moved before him and I was too close to him.
"He came in front of me and he touched my (car's) nose and I was out of the race. But the stewards thought it was a racing incident so it is good to know you can do that as well.
"It doesn't mean I am going to go away and do it. I am very happy with the way I am racing. I believe you have to race fairly. If someone is racing genuinely then you have to race the same way."
Schumacher, sitting in front of Montoya at the FIA-organized conference, refused to get drawn into the controversy when asked whether he believed he had raced in an 'ungentlemanly fashion.'
"I don't see I need to respond," he said.

While Schumacher and Montoya seem to be having a running feud, Coulthard himself is no stranger to run-ins with the German. After watching videos of the champion's clash with the Colombian in Brazil he agrees with Montoya that Schumacher was at fault.
"I've watched that incident repeatedly and to me Michael clearly makes a deliberate swerving manoeuvre to the left after his initial manoeuvre to block Montoya," commented the Scot. "That isn't what the regulations say you are allowed to do. That could at least have been treated as an incident (by the stewards), maybe have called him (Schumacher) up and talked about it. But it was a clear 'no incident' and that sends out a confusing message."

Well said DC!

f1grandprixshop · 11 Apr 2002, 22:58 (Ref:257671)

Tag-team by the two hard talkers, i mean hard racers!

f1manoz · 12 Apr 2002, 04:28 (Ref:257824)

Is it any real surprise that DC took JPMs side???

But DC has a valid point too (oh-oh, watch everyone attack this!)

Don't worry about my attack.
I agree with DC and you too.

calais · 12 Apr 2002, 04:46 (Ref:257832)

i'd be interested to know what halfie's view of the incident is.

f1grandprixshop · 12 Apr 2002, 06:28 (Ref:257865)

Halfie's comment? uhmm.... NO COMMENT?!?
