"Ferrari is like Real Madrid, buying the most expensive players in the market"
After saying Red Bull is like Barcelona's football team because it nurtures its own talent, Jaime Alguersuari draws a comparison between Ferrari and Real Madrid.


Yes, and?
Besides, Ferrari USED to have its own farm team Sauber - FM can say a word or two about that connection.

He's onto to something, but only if you also make the point that whilst Madrid picks up most of the flak from being pricey etc, Barcelona are still big spenders and heavy hitters as well. Rather than being some nice well formed team that doesn't need money.

Actually maybe Mclaren would be better of being described as Barcelona.

Redbull as Chelsea?

For as long as I've watched soccer Barca is as guilty of buying players as the next club,but I agree that the Merenges are the NYY of soccer!!
