left turn only racing is the most rediculous sport out there

as far as i'm concerned, it's not schumis fault if michelin can't get their tires sorted.
bridgestone proved it's possible.
it's a pity for the fans and f1,
but i blame michelin for not coming up with the goods and making the whole sport look like a bunch of amateurs and prats.the new one set tire rule sucks anyway. latest since raikkonen's near fatal crash should they have done something about it.
maybe ecclestone wants to see some spectacular accidents to get this sport some attention.

totaly no respect for fans. they dont care about fans at all.
so much money into that circus, its full of sh't.
everyone should boycott F1. They can go to hell with their brands and their money.

You think they would race again at Watkins Glen, auricom?
I think it would take a heck of a lot of work and money to get the course fit for modern F1 cars. The elevation changes and banking are pretty severe as the track stands currently.
Hopefully they do scrap Indy though, and while they're at it, I hope they dispose of the Hungaroring.

If F1 got their shit together, they could have organised a marathon where all pit crews would run the length of the track to see who could do the laps in the fastest time.

what happened?
- Bluejam0
6 car race because nobody could figure out a tire situation. (Michelin told their teams not to race, FIA wouldn't do this...blah..blah..the politics of money)
the crowd booing was intense.

Wow, my parents went to that race today. Hmmmz.

Fucking joke is what it was!
My only consolation is that Audi won Le Mans for like the 500th time.

Michelin tires could not perform. FIA enforces strict rules.
As a M.Schumacher fan it sucks to see him win like that but hey, it proves the Bridgestones could handle it, fuck changing the track around so one corner is slower.

I bet had Bridgestone asked for the change and leave Ferrari possibly missing out, the FIA would take action.
First Ecclestone making some inane comments during the week, and now this. max and Bernie have got some work to do.

I highly doubt they would have changed. If it was my way, I wouldn't even have an american gp. There is not that even big of a market there, and look at the fans going all apeshit, booing and throwing shit. Oh yeah I forgot because its Ferrari's fault that michelin teams decided not to race today.
If ferrari decided not to run because it wasnt fair they still would have been angry.

Maybe A1 will take off...
what do you think?

what a joke it was!!
- Bluejam0
bottom line its politics. the teams that didn't race today are also the ones that want a breakaway league. makes the FIA look old and weak by not racing.
only 2 races ago rakinnen was leading a race with a tyre about to blow and what did he do..race til it blew.
