Cheating is one thing but clever interpretation of the rules to gain an advantage is surely OK, Colin Chapman if he were alive today would approve I am sure. I agree! |

Not sure if any of you guys saw the podium celebration but I found the lack of respect shown to the two national anthems by the new 30% shareholder in the Mercedes F1 very off-putting to say the least. He was on the podium to receive the Constructors Trophy on behalf of the team.

For me there is a thin line between cheating and clever interpretation of rules, Colin was probably guilty of both and one I would seek opinion of was Gordon Murray, not the fan car, but the hydraulic suspension, it was clever and circumnavigated the rules, but was it cheating?
sorry Rob no I didn't - I had my fill by then

Sorry Rob I did not see much of it either just the bit when the idiot made an appearance on the rostrum. It was that wonderful English patriot Jim Ratcliffe (spelling could be wrong but who cares  ) who wished Brexit on the Uk yet lives in huge wealth in Monaco, and if that isn't enough he decides to produce a replica of the old Land Rover Defender called a Grenadier which was due to be built in Wales but suddenly it isn't and the factory moved to France. Such a patriot. |

These parasites the world over are the route of the problem we all face; filthy rich and yet all they crave is yet more wealth while kids go hungry even in so called leading countries like the UK. |
