Welcome Mr JA, I hope you're being entertained.
Hey GW, this can be fun, plant more suggestions inhis head. You know, weird stuff that is hard to dismiss.
here's one.. "Even though he imagined so, Max Mosley was not the moral compass of Formula One."
Or even better, use quote from his former namesake. There was another James Allen, who was considered the father of inspirational writing.
Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions. But when he realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the hidden soil and seeds of his being out of which circumstances grow, he then becomes the rightful master of himself.
Until thought is linked with purpose there is no intelligent accomplishment.
I have a close relative who was involved in federal politics, to the extent they were regularly sought out by the press for comments. Everyone close to this action were warned never to talk to the press because they misquoted and distorted almost everything. I witnessed a few interviews, and when I read the reporter's article in the newspaper, it was completely unrelated to what was discussed. Trust me, the press print what they want, and if it conflicts with reality, tough, because creating sensalism and controversy sells papers.
So what's really going on in here? I see mainly Alonso or Hamilton fans going at each other, that's what I see. The Brit press marinate their Hamilton fans in a never-ending stream of nationalism and self-righteous indignation over the actions of their perceived opponent, and guess what, the Spanish press do the same for their viewpoint.
I'm very sure that more antagonism exists between the fans than the individual drivers.
Personally, I have no problem with Alonso. He's very human, and displays a lot of his personality to the public. There are flaws, such as his volatile temper, but he controls it. If I a Spaniard, I'd probably worship the ground he stood on, he's that good as a driver.
As far as his perceived flaws, please remember that they are exaggerated by the press, and perpetuated long after it has ceased to be an issue between the drivers.
Racing should be decided on the track, not the court room.
