Jean Todt and his movie stars!!
from F1-live.com
"It is like when you produce a movie. You need stars so that you know you are going to sell the movie all over the world. Ferrari in its business is a star and we want to be paid like a star." - Jean Todt Is Ferrari deliberately trying to *upset* as many people as they can? You win, you get more prizemoney - sounds fair to me! Last edited by Inigo Montoya; 25 Feb 2005 at 22:46. Reason: Read the FAQ, do not try to dodge the autocensor |

Minardi!
 Ofcourse, pay the most to the least successful team!  Just watch how every team then scrambles in a bid to make the worst car of them all!

I think Mr. Todt suggests they should get more (and I believe that is the deal, but I maybe wrong as usual) win, lose or draw. The question I was really asking is the "deliberate" bit. This issue seems to be a sore point for the other teams (not prizemoney, Ferrari getting a bigger share of the pie) and he seems to be rubbing their noses in it.
I just read your response again Inigo - you may have misunderstood me - I DO think the prizemoney is the fair way, I was not being sarcastic. However the prizemoney should be a small proportion of the income generated. |

It is the way it has always been - even before the Concorde.
Here are a few discussions on this, for background reading: Teams pay Ferrari to compete...? (merged)(again) Could there still be an F1 without Ferrari? (merged) GPWC serious? |

When you work in a big industry (for instance, I work on the railway), you are given a "long service award" to recognise your commitment to the company. I don't see a problem with this in F1.
