Niki Lauda's comment:

Former world champion Niki Lauda was critical of Ferrari's decision, labelling the race a fraud for the fans.

"An obvious and unacceptable episode of team orders. People buy tickets to see the best man win. What has happened is a fraud against the spectators," Lauda was quoted as saying by Gazzetta dello Sport.

"The Ferrari team was providing a superlative performance. Why did they want to ruin this way what would have been a perfect victory? Fernando has talked such nonsense that I've never heard before. He has shown he has no character."

I'd like to see only one driver pr. team, that would end this nonsence once and for all...

Still, I've been watching every single race for so many years now. And I haven't seen a team order since back when Rubens let Schumi past... so what episodes are we talking about? In my opinion no other teams actually practise this, not even behind the scenes.

And I'm sooooo hoping for a points penalty for Ferrari! (driver points)

I'm also very happy with Alonso getting what he deserves in the press! I'm even starting to wonder if he actually knew about the race fixing crash in Singapore'2008... he seems to be more than happy with lying into the camera...

Alonso used to be my favorite driver. He's on the bottom of my list of favorite F1 drivers! Schumi is second last now...

Go Vettel, Hamilton, Button and Webber!
