You've spotted the first and most constant rule of F1.
Whatever happens is always someone else's fault! |

In the words of my father - 'I don't know who's fault it is, but it's certainly not mine...!'

MS/JPM: Both have done played the incident IMHO. Compare it to Imola. Montoya hasn't made a big deal of it this time and Schumacher has come out to explain his side. I think this has frustrated the internet rags as they try to make something out of it.
Generally you are right though, this is how it normally is. It gets a little silly here when such a big big deal is made of it - especially when I reckon we are all a little (or a lot) like that in real life! |

Normally drivers get particularly upset when they know they've done a ridicoulous mistake; remember spa 98?
The same for Alonso, for instance. |

The thing i feel strange rather is how FIA/stewards' intergrity is dictated by the outcome of their decisions...their integrity doubted only if the outcome is against an individual/team's interests.

Formula One drivers are like politicians- they put
a "spin" on everything bad that occurs. |

Ralf says"don't blame me"
www.itv-f1.com/news/news_story/21329 I think Ralf's loosing his cool. It wouldn't supprise me if he quits F1, He hasn't been happy since leaving Jordan. After moving into a top team people have expected him to be as good as his brother and i think he has taking more critisim than if he was not related to any-one involved in motorsport. The media have been awfull to him especially his own countrys media calling him gay, his marrage a sham and printing naked photos of his wife Cora. You can see how influenced he is by manager Willi Weber by some of the talk going on at the mo. I believe Ralf would of liked to stay at Williams. |
