Ross Brawn new spectacles appeal
please give generously....
did you hear him after the race? wonder how he will explain that to JPM when Ferrari need to employ him in future years. What a sore loser he is. [Some possibly libellous comments removed.] Last edited by R; 29 Jun 2003 at 16:19. |

Okay Britons, get to the polls and get those libel laws liberalized! It's really quite absurd when we can't sling mud at people who are as worthy of our spite as Ross Brawn.

Lee unfortunately we have a rather extant political system called FPP here and it produces nothing in the way of what people need with regard to Govt or legislation. Thats why I had to chose my words so carefully ;-)

I'm just trying to recall a time when Gilles Villeneuves rival team managers complained about his audacious overtaking... nope sorry cant! They just sat back and admired real racing! Like when Alesi overtook Senna at Phoenix - did Ron Dennis complain? and the common factor? both were/are Ferrari heroe's - the real Ferrari that is SEFAC or Ferrari Corse, not this homogonised vodaphoney advert appearing travesty we now have. I wont buy vodafone, shell, Fila etc on principal nowadays.

It's no surprise - Ross has always been arrogant.

Ferrari died with Enzo. And when Jean Alesi left, so did the last remains of the Ferrari spirit.

You can't talk about Ferrari being sore losers when McLaren will never accept defeat. When they lose Ron Dennis always blames someone else and usually accuses Ferrari of cheating. It's always someone elses fault as far as he's concerned.

Yeah the team was reborn, but they lost the spirit and passion of old in the process. And now they're not getting it all their own way one of them has chosen to whine like a baby. Get over yourself Ross.

is it too hard to say, 'he beat us fair and square' which was quite obviously the case, or maybe he actually believes what he is saying.
and, yes we would probably get the same from patrick, or ron, but it doesnt make it right does it. Last edited by nameless; 29 Jun 2003 at 21:35. |

Patrick is perfectly reasonable, in my opinion.
Ron is normally the King of Sourland, absolute ruler, HOWEVER: Now, the the constitution has changed. All hail Lord Emperor Brawn. Together, they make: The Supreme Authority of Whining. I am most displeased and disappointed in Ross. Very crappy. *********** Btw,ghinz, it might interest you: Although usually refered to as a FPP system, in reality the UK has no such thing. It is actually a "plurality system". |

It does make us ask how MOntoya would go to Ferrari to work with Brawn after what Ross said. Ross would have to lick some booty! But then I think Ross Brawn was present in the "YOU BROKE MY ****ING HEAD!" incident so obviously views him differently now. Not that that was the first time Juan has done something like that! Ask Heidfeld from F3000 time.

Not everyone can have a US$500m a year budget and lose every year like in the pre-Schuey days, yep methinks they need more Enzo influence....

There's a simple way to tell when he is talking - his lips move.
