Alonso sure Renault will fight for wins
he has started a lots of PR talk recently. to british media he was sounds quite positive, to spanish media he is expressing his depression. Brawn door will be close if Button win the wdc. Kimi confirm 2010 seat, with vettel interest getting stronger. i wonder whether f1 will lose such a talented guy. he should have a best car to race Kimi. both equally best man on track |

I would hate to see Alonso go - surely not. Jenni was it you who suggested Kimi and Alonso driving for Ferrari earlier ???
Interesting .... but only if Alonso did not "take over" as someone else suggested he might.
They would certainly "keep each other honest"  |

nope it was not me who want to see both of them racing in the same team, that is not gonna happen  , and why having 2 best driver in same team? you will not see proper racing , all you will see probably both are fighting for no1, then the fun is gone. 2 wdc in a team? hmmm interestingly. i am more interested to see kimi in ferrari and alonso in a good team,a well develop team. what more i miss in f1 these day? a proper racing , we have both talented driver on track but yet one were suffer with a not suitable car (kimi) and one with a team which has not even have a proper financial to hire a good engineer. is such a waste. 2007 although it was a quite mess up year, but those year we see kimi in a competitive car ( F2007) and alonso in ( MP4-22) , the fight for wdc , that was very interesting, and Kimi won it !  thats the racing i want to see.
like button, having illegal diffuser being brought up in early season and later become a legal part. and having the best engine so far on track ?with no competition . is boring 
ya and so i wish kimi and alonso racing with proper team fight for wdc  |

LOL I like it Adam ! I bet there are a few drivers who could think of many different ways to abuse their dud cars !
Maybe we should start a new thread "101 ways to kill a dud car" !!! |

Now that we are in Germany, let's do a bit of remembrance from the last time we were there.

Yep, that's right. It's interesting because many younger sister/brothers usually imitate older sisters/brothers, maybe if it wasn't because of her sister maybe Alonso would never had had an interest for cars. |

Banning Renault for the next GP is a bit exaggerated. Someone posted this in other forum and I completely agree.

I believe that their decision was a pure reaction to the incidents of the past week. The FIA didn't want to be seen as being weak on the safety issue, so the stewards reacted strongly in a situation that did have the potential to be extremely dangerous.
The reality is that FA had already slowed way down and was well off the pace when the wheel did come loose. The race ban is harsh, particularly when you look at past penalties in similar circumstances. I think of SV's penalty for driving a damaged car after his collision with RK. I'm surprised that the stewards went this far but then nothing about F1 and the FIA surprises me after this past year. |

The ban goes to Team is not because they let Alonso hang around on track, is because the statement the renault team gave about they do realize the problem but still release alonso away. this is irresponsible. if they didnt claim they did know the problem then i would have said is harsh punishment. Since is a known incident then there is no excuses. lets talk about if ? if the tyre hit someone? a sorry can not repay everything. "deliberately" means a lot.unless renault crew didn't admit it. but they did.

Allowing a driver deliberately to race with a broken/damaged car is not new. Kimi was racing with his rear pipe broken, and nothing happened despite the team and the TV displaying a pic of Kimi's car waving the pipe. Let's remember the pipe felt down in the end, what if it had hit a driver. Why Ferrari wasn't punished back then?
This proves it was just all a movement by the FIA to clean their image, and maybe because of being a bit more sensitive because of Massa and Surtee.
I'm not saying they did not deserve a punishement but banning them is too much and completely overdone. And very few netizens are agreed with FIA.
A good punishement should be a fine, and no points for Renault. But punishing Renault's drivers is nothing for Renault but a huge big bad thing for Alonso, Piquet and all the fans from the European GP, exactly the ones who had no fault. FIA is clearly with mental illness. |

they should have banned kimi indeed, it was also an issue that was brought up. but now FIA has decided to do that these freak accidents are now proving to be a real threat and if they dont act now when will they act when one more person dies? FIA has done the right thing they learn from this and they have acted, a life and safety is million times more important than the satisfaction of a nation. They should be more efficient before, so right now they make a correct move.

And once again, stop bringing out fake sensationalist remarks. Of course safety is more important than fans ("satisfaction of a nation?" ), thanks to point out what it is obvious. But I said they deserved a punishement so I'm not considering otherwise. Now let's talk without demagogery resorts.
Stop and think about things with sense instead taking life in black and white only. Don't you see a bit weird and exagerrated going from not punishing other teams for doing exactly the same in recent times and in the past to go and bann Renault for that now?
We've gone from not punishement at all to the biggest of the punishements that will only affect Alonso, Piquet and fans from European GP (that are not only from a certain nation for your info).
That's why most of people disagree with that punishement. |

Adam, you will not believe this. Really you won't  I agree with you!! 
The FIA is again not ruling the same offense in similar situations.
Of course in light of Henry Surtees' death and what happened to Felipe, they feel they have to make a stand now. And that is fine as such, but the penalty needs to fit the crime. And that's where the FIA is not very good at.
I find the penalty to too harsh, even if the team knew beforehand that the tyre wasn't fitted properly. Remember Mika Häkkinen? As I posted before, there were many other examples, as you mentioned one, where drivers continued. Kimi for example was on his way to win a GP, with a tyre that was heavily damaged (grained). For laps and laps everyone waited whether he would finish that race or that the tyre would blow up. The latter happened. That was dangerous for both Kimi as other drivers and marshals and spectators. For the FIA to suddenly make a firm stand is difficult to accept, especially with the huge interests involved.
Before you react icegirljenni, I am not in any way in favour of teams to release their drivers with known problems. It's just that the Renault penalty does not seem consistent with previous FIA ruling.
