Hes not saying Ferrari (sp?) are the only ones to cheat.

Hes just picked up on 1 item which looks suspicious compared to the other cars out there.

Its not one man "spitting" on Ferrari or saying they are the only cheats in F1, it was a statement made by Dan for discussion about the wing mirror section after all the controversy regarding splitters and diffusers earlier in the F1 season.

Jeeeez, whats wrong with having a discussion about the point of the topic instead of going off track into profiling people as Ferrari bashers etc.

What i want to know is . . . . . now before you read i am not against redbull, nor am i taking the attitude of attacking the winners but . . . . . How have redbull got away with running, pretty much four cars?

At the start of the season the toro rosso and red bul were exactly the same, minus the engine. Now given the fact that engines are bought off other people etc etc, and that the main area where teams win and lose is aerodynamics how is this allowed?

They do this due to the design of the cars being done by red bull technology then distributed to red bull racing and torro rosso, torro rosso always behind with the technology but this will be stopped 2010 due to regs

Forget it then, I'm off. I think you must have me confused with someone else if you think I usually attack Ferarri. I always try to keep an open mind but there's a difference between being open minded and wearing red tinted sunglasses, as the FIA could do with remembering.

As I said, I'm off. I've had about enough. Maybe I'll e-Mail some of you from time to time. I'll see some of you at the 'ring.

From re reading Dans post, it does not seem he will bw back on here again in a while. From reading Dans posts in the F1 thread he's never been all anti ferrari he just points out the fact that in the past they have had good treatment by the FIA as you can tell with the deal they had with them.
But hopefully this isn't the last we have heard of Dan as he has helped me out in some of my threads and pm's and is a great asset to the forum and its sometimes nice to read his long long in depth posts on certain subjects!Not all the time though!!
