Thank you Teretonga.
We shall await developments with interest, I hope they don't mess up the championship to prove a point, as not having team orders is just a total joke!

Anyway we'll hold our breath and see what happens.

Nope, the joke is the utter incompetance that Ferrari showed in implementing their team orders. I would'nt trust them to plan a pee up in a brewery. In my opinion Ferrari need to be taken down a peg or two. They believe that are the be all and end all of F1 and can get away with anything. If peg lowering requires messing around with the championship, then so be it. No loss.

I don't think it was incompetence by Ferrari in implementing their team orders. Rob Smedley was seriously pee-ed off at having to move his man over for Teflonso so he just chose to make the team orders very obvious. Then Massa did the same by the way he let Alonso by. The only incompetence was the way the team tried to brazen it out afterwards.

Still find it mind boggling that people pretty much flat out say that they don't mind being lied to by the teams about team orders, and all that with a straight face, as long as they're not being obvious about it, so they can pretend it's been a cracking race.

But all hell breaks loose if it's a bit too obvious.


Hypocrites much?
