good job too. that means andretti's yet to score again. hehehe....
it was good they punished him. having said that, i do have to be careful on this one. it was my driver who started all this hullabaloo. feel sorry for the team. andretti didn't have much of an excuse this time. |

Considering they have run into and over more of their pit crew than any other team, they are the ones who should pay. And now they will know enough to watch out!
P.S. to Bella: If you've never checked out the site "F1 Rejects" you should - Mikey just made their Hall of Shame under the heading "You Lucky B*****D" - and they say he's the most frequently nominated of all their entrants! It's very funny too. |
