Alonso to drop 10 places?

Post

Does Alonso have to drop 10 at the next race as his engine blew at Monza?

I'm still not fully up to speed with the engine rules :D

no since it didnt happen during practice. since it happened in the race no engine penalty, a clear example of this is what button did early this season.

Yup, I think I saw him walk past a Ferrari employee without taking his cap off, or bowing. I have submitted a formal protest and I expect a five slot penalty as a minimum.

(actually I have no idea whether he did anything of the sort, but that's what I'm telling the FIA anyhow - I don't think it will make a difference, he'll still get a penalty!)

Oh, and Flav was looking a bit scruffy during the last race weekend - I believe that is bringing the sport into disrepute and will also be submitting a protest about that - must be worth another 5 places!

Why? Miss out on the SPORT I love?

The better option is not to support Ferrari, or their sponsers and hit them in the hip pocket. The problem is their pockets are VERY deep, and my measly 2cents wont make a difference.

Ah well, at least the racing is good.

Yes, we could all do that.

Just as well as you could stop reading these posts, cause you know there will be content that will offend you. ;)

That was a joke.

Don't take it seriously.

Kimi and Alonso have not tested this week... I think it is because they are switching teams next year and there respected teams do not want to see the newest technical developments
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.
