I chose BAR. Sato himself said he knew it was going to blow. The result of which could have been so much worse. There was a packed grandstand just a few yards the other side of the barrier where Fisi landed.

Tweed should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I want Barrichello to be an option. Another useless drive, barely holding off Webber's Jag, and followed by the usual press conference opener....." I have to be honest, I had a big problem after about 5 laps my brake pedal was long/seatbelts came loose/got a cold/intermittent electrical problem/a family of small ducks were crossing the road at Rascasse." ( delete as applicable ).

If anyone truly believes TGF had suspention failure, well, I've got a bridge for sale, too. CHEAP. As for the marshalls, F1 only has themselves to blame. All the finest have been trickling away year by year now because they refuse to kill themselves for Bernie and the FIA's refusal to follow basic safety proceedures (ie full course yellows) and expecting them to work out on hot tracks when they shouldn't and put thier lives at risk.

eh? I don't think anyone thinks Michael has suspension failure. Certainly not Michael or Ferrari.

The safety procedures at F1 races are second to none. The Prof sees to that. You can't even blame Bernie for this one, because he employs Sid and what Sid wants gets done - by Bernie. I really don't think you can say F1 is losing good marshals for any reason. Witness our very own priest catcher.

Yes I can, because I personally know many marshalls that have stopped doing F1 races for that very reason. F1 races expect them to do things while the track is under full green that NO other series would ever make them do.

No, but I think Reubens had been during the press conference. I almost fell off of my chair with his "I was lucky to finish the race" comments. I didn't think I could hold that team in any more contempt. I honestly didn't.

Surely you can, your contempt for Bernie must be greater?

Hehehe....

Seems to be the case with a lot of F1 drivers. They're always complaining about some sort of supposed problem during the race.

For God's sake shutup! You won the race, stop complaining!
