damn shame.

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.

jeez, i missed the circus, sounds like a joke. ridiculous!

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

I missed it too, link to the story.

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.

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.

FIA looks old and weak? Makes Michelin look old and weak, please install a new chicane for us because our tires cant handle it. There is no one else to blame.

Michelin's tires have been far superior to Bridgestone's this entire year. Ferrari has been closer to matching the performance of their tire brethren Jordan and Minardi, than to any of the Michelin teams. I find it hard to believe that in one week Michelin has fallen off the map and Bridgestone is king.

that indy race was a joke to begin with - good idea, bad application.
they should've went back to Watkins Glen.
- Jevard0
money, politics, and the fact that ecclestone is a fucking prick all have amounted to the worst F1 season in recent memory
oh, and shumacher is a fucking cock
- NegativeSpace0
Don't be jealous because he wins.
- Jevard0
he is a pompous, arrogant, boring nob.
yeah he sure can drive that car...but where's the spirit? he makes it so fucking clinical....

I would say he handles himself better than most drivers. Watch the press conferences. I would have a high self esteem too after being the 7 time world champion :)
The people I have a problem with a retards like Villenueve and Montoya.
People criticize for stupid things, for example I have heard people this weekend about all this BS like he shouled have driven off a track after the first lap because its not a real race etc.
