Presumably they'll be investigating the 2007 race when he let Raikkonen through while they're at it?

Blumin' 'eck.
The absurdity of the world in which we live in never ceases to amaze me. |

I kind of hope Massa gives Alonso a win. The furor would be hilarious.

I'm currently involved in a Brazilian litigation and believe me nothing there surprises me.

Massa: ".... but I insist our work is not to understand the opinion of the crowd but to do the best on the track."
An interesting form of words to justify not doing your best on the track! |

Okay ladies and gents - where is that double face plant picture!
Good to know the Brazilian's have such a fine legal system protecting the public's rights. ....and this paid out of the public purse! |

By this stage of the championship, team orders should be allowed to come into play. If they try to legislate against it, they're going to have to be support their investigations with solid evidence. And we all know how murky that can get...

What is the bloody world coming to? I feel a bit sorry for Felipe now.... but I guess it was his choice only to make it a media event by choosing to allow the pass without subtlety......
It also makes me wonder just how fellow Brazilian Rubens Barrichello is a free man, given his record of buckling to team orders, including his equally unsubtle position swap at Austria back in 2002. I can imagine if Rubens had been put under the same cloud and faced court over it we would no doubt have read how "Mr Barrichello asked for x number of similar cases to be taken into consideration....." |

If by some miracle Felipe manages to find himself in front of Fernando the team will just hold him for an extra second or two in the pits, simples!

I say just stick him in jail now, just to be on the safe side.

Dear me.
Of course Massa will let him past. All drivers have to observe the blue flags. |

That's just BS. There's always someone wanting to promote himself these days, the so-called 15 minutes of fame.
