FIA settle with Briatore and Symonds

And they all lived happily ever after.

Now I'm thinking Briatore for next FIA President and maybe Symonds will return to Renault?

There's no way the member clubs would vote for Flav, then again they did vote for Max ...

If you want to read the full statement, it's here.

Having been a fairly vociferous opponent of Jean Todt as FIA President, I have to say he is doing a pretty good job so far.

At last sense out of the FIA!

Congratulations Mr Todt on cleaning up the mess.

Hopefully he will now sort out the ability of the F1 cars to actually race!

This is no surprise at all, let's see, we have a driver who blackmailed his boss, participated in a race fixing, and the other the same, and both gone unpunished, not mentioning past issues. So why not ?
And there's always space for more.

There's a place where honesty and integrity of a man speaks louder than any judgement and pleas.


This place is not F1.

Hmm. What's that great French phrase that means The more things change, the more they stay the same? (Although Flav's obviously not French it just seems appropriate).

Well lets face it Michael invented the deliberate accident to attempt to change the course of the Championship back in 97 with JV (and arguably earlier in his career at Adelaide with Hill as well), all when PiJu was still in short pants.

I think Alain Prost has that honour followed the next year by Ayrton Senna. What was that French phrase again?

Thanks duke. I sort of knew how it went (but certainly not where the accents should go), but didn't want to get it wrong as there are so many erudite* people on here.

* er·u·dite   /ˈɛryʊˌdaɪt, ˈɛrʊ-/ Show Spelled[er-yoo-dahyt, er-oo-] –adjective
characterized by great knowledge; learned or scholarly: an erudite professor; an erudite commentary.
(That very strong two-part glue your Dad would use to mend things when you were little was called Araldite!)
