I wonder if there would be any exception by the FIA for things happening in Transit

[chemax]

Whoa... that definitely has to suck.

Oh man thats not good at all. That will prob mess up their last few races.

[bud]

RK: Where did you get these engines?
MT: They fell off the back of a lorry.

[cap-dude]

^^I was thinking the same thing.

Sure Mario, they fell of the back of your lorry. Not Force India's or McLarens.

Fail

Well all I can say is... whoops!

Talking of BMW mishaps does anybody remember last year when Nick was doing a demo in the 2008 car at the Munich factory and he wrecked the front wing by clipping a kerb?

Wasn't he driving it on ice at the time, though?

At least their race engines are okay. Is there any more information on the engines which were damaged? Surely they had plans to use them some time.

They're going to be used in the practice sessions and then possibly re-used in races if the new engines fail.

[McLaren Fan]

I see. I guess they'll get them properly analysed after this weekend.

They can't do anything that would give BMW an advantage, like allowing them to use replacement engines. Otherwise all the teams would start dropping their engines so that they could use new ones.
