Guest Nogbad Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Yeah. Michelin are to blame, yet another French @#!#$# up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 OK, you have to give Michelin some of the blame but remember the STUPID FIA rules (grooved tires, run one set from qualifying to end of race) are a lot of why everybody is having tire problems this year. BTW, if still want to blame the French remember FIA doesn't stand for Fred's International Autoshow. Federation Internationale de l'Automobile. Check out their site to see their brilliant solution for the problem "Just tell your driver to go slower in turn 13". Does anyone with a functioning brain think a top level racer is going to let people blow past him in a turn during a race? I heard the phrase "dumb as a box of rocks" (not directed at me, for once) at work last week. The FIA proves people can be DUMBER than a box of rocks.

Guest aironepony Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I admire the American way of showing unhappiness; throw your beer cans and bottles onto the track. After all if you can't get the thrill of seeing tyres (tires) bursting at 200mph, create the entertainment for yourself..........................

I do have to wonder if things would have been any different in any other country. I've seen European fans throw things a racers in the past. Every country has its share a goons.

Michelin is French, the FIA is French. What more proof do you need that the French are useless. I don't often agree with Dubya, but on the French.... I do.

jrt Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 mmmmkay. Well, this topic didn't work out so well. I'm closing it down, because it's just devolved into a 'you're country is full of silly connigits' thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
