I have said for a few days now that is is my opinion that Max should have been here in the states if he took the US GP serious. I believe his being out of touch actually played a role in not finding a comprimise because the time to hammer one out was so limited.

Walking out of the stadium I was talking to a man who had gotten a call about an hour and a half before the race started and his son had asked him if he was gooing intot he stadium. He said of course, why wouldn't I? And then his son proceeded to tell him about the news he had pulled off the Speed web site.

Nice to see this stuff in print finally...

First of all, I make no apologies for banging the drum on behalf of www.speedtv.com. On Saturday evening we gave you a unique insight into what was going down in the paddock at Indy, and suggested that the USGP might ultimately take place with six starters. It wasn

The fans were angry and they have every right to be. While looking for someone to blame, they chose the referee (FIA) instead of the people who actually tried to compromise the race (Michelin and the teams).

Blame Michelin for choosing performance over safety, for bringing the wrong tyres.

Blame the teams for not trying.

Blame the drivers for showing us that they cared more about their job and money than pride.

 

I've often said the same thing about that guy in the White House.

They should BOTH resign, but I wouldn't hold my breath for either.

(Oops... did I say something political???)

I think Bernie got his "appliances" confused. Max is about as uselful as an icemaker in Alaska.

 

I hate to say it but i *cring* agree with Triple-H. I think Max should resign, perhaps not because he is 'out of touch' but rather because he is simply clueless. He's simply making a lot of wrong decisions and it's starting to kill the sport of Formula One.
