Over a dozen reusable components built to provide iconography, dropdowns, input groups, navigation, alerts, and much more...
The implications of this saga will run and run. It is not only the biggest scandal in motor sport history, it has few equals in any other sport, except boxing and horse racing.
I guess that the reason why Ferrari has not announced its drivers for 2010 is that it wants to see how Alonso comes out of the hearing. He went along with a seemingly illogical decision to refuel after only 12 laps. The Spygate affair showed him to be utterly ruthless as did his threat of blackmailing Ron Dennis.
The best possible time for Ferrari to have announced its drivers for 2010 would have been at Monza. Normally that would have stolen the headlines. Issuing a press release does not have the same sizzle.
Alonso was granted immunity over Spygate. There are many whispers and fingers pointed at him over Crashgate. I cannot be the only person who noticed how accessible Fernando was to the media at Monza, and how pleasant and modest he was. Martin Brundle even commented on this during the TV coverage.
The driver market will not kick in until Alonso's future is known and it is a fair bet that will not be known until after the WMSC hearing. Some people have swallowed the line that Ferrari is still in talks with Raikkonen's lawyers over severance. This is hogwash, severance will have been part of the original contract. What is under negotiation is not the conditions of leaving, but whether Kimi can be persuaded to stay should Alonso suddenly not look that good a prospect.
A high ranking FIA official reportedly knew about the 'crash-gate' allegations as long ago as the 2008 season finale in Brazil last year according to the Daily Mirror.Just doesn't look good for the FIA. They will go after some, but let others slide.
The British newspaper on Friday published a transcript of Nelson Piquet Snr's August 17 interview with Quest investigators, commissioned by F1's governing body, about the scandal.
In the interview, Piquet revealed that after learning from his son about the deliberate crash only days after the September 2008 event, he told his former Brabham colleague Charlie Whiting.
Today, Whiting is the FIA's safety and technical delegate and F1 race director and starter, and therefore the first point of contact between formula one teams and the Paris federation. At Bernie Ecclestone's Brabham team in the 1980s, he worked as a senior mechanic and engineer with the team's then driver Piquet.
"Anyway in Brazil I talk to Charlie...
I got him and I said 'Look, what could happen to Nelson if I bring this up?' And I was afraid to screw up the career of Nelson," Piquet said. "In the race in Brazil I called Charlie and I told the whole story to Charlie."
Max Mosley said at Monza last weekend that, despite earlier hearing rumours, the governing body could only move on the affair when Piquet Jr made an official declaration. But the FIA president also said he only learned about the Piquet family's actual allegations in July of this year.
The World Motor Sport Council hearing will take place on Monday.
Hmmm maybe the Renault-Charlie Whiting speculation in China was true then!
