Brawn are new, in time they'll end up doing something that will lose respect from fans.
How perceptive of you.

What have Toyota done full stop? :wink:

Most teams that race for titles will make contentious decisions. Ross Brawn has never been shy of bending rules and jumping through loopholes to win a race.

You could also say that about any top driver. It is the drive to win that makes them dangerous.

It is only contentious when there is something big at stake. Like today, with the Lewis/Seb moment. if Seb was a top runner and he missed a lap and did not get another time it would of been an issue. where as Seb was not going to get any higher it was a no harm no foul affair.

As long as the rules are not BROKEN your arguement is fruitless.

It isn't. Teams and drivers lose popularity with fans for pushing those boundaries. It happens in all sports, not just Formula 1.

Popularity be damned, this is not a contest for who is king of the prom.
That is only your opinion which does not make it truth. I have a feeling that if your team, who ever they are, found a 'loop hole' you would be defending their action's. Those who live in glass house's should not throw stone's.

Not to offend those who disagree with what i'm about to say, but I think that there is something more mythological about an Italian driving for Ferrari in Italy than a Brit driving for a British constructor in Britain.

And i'm not even a Ferrari fan.
