I couldn't agree more! If someone has to be sanctionned it should be Brawn for having their car fall to bits .

Really I don't see ANY team sending a car out when they know the wheel's gonna come off and make them lose even more time than if they had sorted the problem in the first place !

Besides there is no comparison with the Surtees or Massa incident. In Surtees case the other driver crashed at high speed so there was a lot of energy in the wheel. In Massa's case too, and Massa was at full speed.

Now In this case Alonso was going really slowly trying to make it back to the pits, so the other drivers were warned about it and in all honesty yellow flags should've been out. When the wheel came off yes it bounced but it wasn't going fast at all so it was really unlikely that someone would have been hit.

Anyway we'll see what the appeal gives us.

Be good to see Schumacher drive a Ferrari F1 again, I reckon the real reason why it's him is so they can develop the car even faster
