Re: wacky races for formula 1

I assume big al is referring to the death of Ayrton Senna? May 1 1994
Roland Ratzenberger died there too, the day before.

Anyway, back to the topic - do any of you remember the rain-drenched 2003 Brazilian GP?

This was the one where all the Michelin teams had a suitable tyre, but the Bridgestone runners (ie Ferrari...) didn't.

As a safety precaution, all the teams had to follow the safety car for a few laps until it was deemed safe to race.

So although the FIA can change the rules to suit Ferrari, they can't to suit 7 teams and the millions of fans around the world.

The arrogance of Ferrari and Jean Todt obviously know no bounds.
