Gerard should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It has often been suggested by some that the FIA is biased towards the Ferrari team.
Today, a press pack released by the FIA for the French GP weekend caused some embarrassing moments for the sports' governing body.

This was more or less confirmed when they released the press pack with a cover featuring a picture of a driver's arm with a Ferrari tattoo with the catch: 'Ferrari the F1 constructors' champion 2000!'

As usual the FIA didn't want to comment.

A nice way for FIA to dig their own grave. I like to see how they manage to get themselves out of this one.

Bernie will say it was Max. Max will say it was somebody at Silverstone.

I think it's rigged. I think I'll go watch ALMS.

Well, If you remember the days before the Suzuka GP back in 1998 Bernie Ecclestone did say: "I would like to see Schu win the championship". I don't think that he has changed mind....
