At least the end was interesting!

Not.

why interesting....ferrari doin a little show.
All the races were the same. pole position or not ( usually is) ferrari gains and expands teh time before the enxt contestant. and that's how it stais till the end. What show is that. I just loved to see williams spinning around yesterday.

It was interesting because Schumacher clearly did not mean Barichello to take the race!

That was just plain stupidity on Shumachers part, he wanted to cross the line together and slowed up, Barrichello clearly did not slow.

whatya mean??
Barichello wanted the points, Schumi is already leader, this way they got certainty.
Schumi clearly slowed down and Barichello accelerated!

Oh yeah, Schumacher is REALLY the sort of person to give up another victory, especially when he is setting records here.

He was clearly surprised when told, and had to go see the 'photo' finish.

He did a couple of interviews, one which suggested he wanted to finish side by side and was slowing enough to make it so and that he was surprised that he had lost the race so I think you are right Ush, he did not give up the victory he just screwed up.

eather way, he DID slowed down
he can say a lot but he did give it away that way

Oh yeah, he slowed down for a formation finish, but either Barichello pushed too hard or Schumacher gave too much.l

does it even matter, think almost everyone will agree that schumy is a bloody bastard, so who cares what he did, he didn't win that's the important thing

why would everyone think he's a bastard?

cause well he is 🙂

i think schummy realised by now that making ALL the records won't lead anywhere. Thus he sturted to work on another more usefull thing...like public immage...that's why he and barrichello did that..."show" there.....
bastards......they should be running in 3 wheels

well, if only he could give the victory to his BROTHER!!!

Well if his brother could get anywhere near second place he might do.

season is finished, new rules for next season:

1) The teamleader can no longer change the course of the game (so Schumacher has to let Barrichello pass without teamorders 😉 )

2) Qualificationtraining: Only one car at a time on the track. The teams can not deceided anymore when they go ontrack

3) The first EIGH drivers get points, winner gets 10 points, the second one get 8 points, then 6, 5, 4, 3,2, 1

4) There will be TWO qualifications instead of one

5) Every team will be obligated to use two different sets of tires: for dry and wet weather. Every GP, a team can only use ONE set of raintires

Some new rules raise my eyebrows... F1 is about cars, speed an teamorders, they will continue to use teamorders eventhough you forbid it. And deceiding when everyone can go on is stupid!

They have also dropped the Begian GP - can't think why.

easy, Belgium is stupid enough to get the anti-tobacco law operative THIS year! How stupid can you get???
All European countries have accepted this law and will enforce it in 2006; Belgium wanted to be the prime example (or stupid example in this case) and activated the law for January 1, 2003. Five big Formula One teams (think Ferrari, think Bar, think ...) have tobacco sponors. So they don't agree, and when int's not unanimous the track gets off the charts. The whole law is stupid, since tobacco ads are not proven that they will encourage people to smoke. I have seen lots of ads, and I haven't start smoking. I know a lot of others who saw the same ads, and haven't started either!

So this means... after a fun 5 years of visiting, no more GP in Belgium for me 🙁 And I just wanted another picture of the GP goodness! (see page one of this thread for that)
The only solution now is going to Germany to watch it there, but with all respect UBH, I don't like Germany, nor their inhabitants

Wlel, good for you and your friemds, but there ARE links between tobacco advertising and people smoking, otherwise the tobacco companies wouldn't bother, would they?
