It's just post after post of Mclaren fanboy

No one is buying your "it's OK to use team orders, as long as these conditions are present" spin.

Fact is, Mclaren claims thier drivers are on equal status and in the last two races they have proven what everybody already knows. Ron Dennis is not only a blatent cheater, he looks into the camera and lies through his teeth. He will basically say anything to make himself and his team look good, and he has no qualms about lying to do it.

Only a complete moron would claim that Hamilton is anything but Mclaren's number one driver...

In the biggest ironic twist in years, Ferrari's drivers are racing eachother and Mclaren have declared Lewis thier number one...Mclaren looks like Ferrari with Schumacher...

I posted this once before.

This is how McLaren works it out:

Formula:
It's OK when x = {q + [q2 + (r-p2)3]1/2}1/3 + {q - [q2 + (r-p2)3]1/2}1/3 + p
BUT not OK when p = -b/(3a), q = p3 + (bc-3ad)/(6a2), r = c/(3a)

Flowchart:

Wow Mike that is MOLTO COMPLICATO!!!!!!! hehehehehehehehe I think it relates to the McLaren supporters more than McLaren itself. For crying out loud whocares if you give team orders in order to win. It was never cheating in the past and also in other motorsports other than F1. Ever since the Schumacher days at Ferrari has this become an issue. And if McLaren want to do it, GOOD ON THEM, if Ron Dennis wants to do it, I'LL PAT HIM ON THE BACK. Its a team sport and the team works together. Why do all you McLaren supporters deny someting that makes logical sense. I mean half of you seem to be happy to lose a world title by a few points that could of otherwise been won simply by giving team orders. What kind of sensible logic is that?

It denies another driver the chance to fight for the world championship...

Can there be any doubt now that Ron Dennis is basically a bold faced liar?

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/69473

What kind of temerity and hubris does it take to make such statements after the entire world watched him get on the horn and engage team orders, in full view? What kind of a man can look into your eye and tell you a flat out lie?

I find this part quite amusing "But the fact is that Sir Jackie retired from motor racing in 1973, which is 35 years ago, and the sport has moved on in that time. His suggestion that Lewis's world championship campaign depends on Heikki's assistance presupposes that Heikki's task is to drive in support of Lewis, and that simply isn't the case".

The technology has moved on not the way team's try to control their WDC/WCC outcome, what a pant load of poo!

For me it looked almost the same as Kubica/Heidfeld in Canada earlier this year. I think it doesn't matter if the drivers did this themselves or were ordered to do it. It was important to maximize the team's result. I remember Heidfeld saying something like "Robert was lighter and on fresh tyres. I wasn't going to make problems". I think it's logical you won't give much of a fight to your teammate, especially if you're only slowing him down.

Steering Wheel.
Why do you want to know?

not really but it was a cooincedence(sp) that the tv footage showed RD was communicating with heikki, then all of a sudden he let lewis pass.

Those buttons are pushed God knows how many times throughout a Grand Prix. Ron Dennis could have been talking to the Pope for all you know. Team orders are banned in Formula One. If McLaren had of told Kovalainen to let Hamilton by, Hamilton would have been disqualified by now and the team punished as well.

The Pope??? What could he have been saying? 'Hi Bennie, any chance that JC might be able to arrange for Lewis to slip past Heikie at the next hairpin?'
All teams do it (not talk to the Pope though!!)and it wont every stop so why dont we just get along with it?
