Alonso cracks.... and the championship situation now...

[senna12]

I don't believe that after this small mistake (with admittedly disastrous results), you would say that Fernando has cracked. He would have to make several over the next few races before you could say that.

I suspect that he is going to have to make sure he's ahead of Fisi all the time though, since Giancarlo is no doubt peeved about being told to stop bi***ing by Flav, and is not going to make anything easy for young Mr. Alonso.

Yeah, that's a possibility...

I'd still call that team orders if it were the case. I

Which is possibly why it was so carefully worded.

There was certainly no instruction overheard that could definitely be highlighted as evidence of team orders.

I wonder if Fisi would have moved over.....would other teams complain to race control about the use of team orders

Of course they would. That's a textbook case!
