I managed not to be a fully-fledged Ferrari fan when I lived in Italy. I even went to a GP there as a non-Ferrari fan.

Not all Italians are passionate Ferrari fans, not be a very long way & those that are can only be described as tolerent & indeed interested in & polite to fans of other teams.

Simply stating that being in or close to Italy means you must be a Ferrari fan is either a very poor excuse or shows a level of understanding for both the sport & it's place in Italy that is, at best, retarded.

You may of lived in Italy but you're not Italian. Secondly the soft Italians you met were not hardcore fans. I like other cars as well. In particular I like Ford. But I don't feel the same emotions with Ford as I do with Ferrari. Here is an example. I follow WRC. I go for Ford. If they win, they win, if they don't then they don't. When Lancia were in it and very successful, I had the same emotions for them as I do for Ferrari in F1. With Ford I do not feel this. So going for Ferrari in F1 is a must for me. It wouldn't be the same supporting any other team, even if I liked that team secondary to Ferrari.

A. You are not Italian either.

B. The fans I met were hardcore enough to stand for 6 hours in the rain & mud at Imola to watch the race. Some of them had been there all weekend in fact.

C. Your bum looks big in that & red doesn't suit your complexion.

It isn't true. You should know by now that I get wound up about the smallest of things.

Has anyone else wondered if the $80m dollars was partially financed from Mclarens fine?

Yep. This is what really maddens me. McLaren are called cheats, fined eonough money to make sure the FIA can pay off their dirty little debts to Ferrari and also they are cheated out of a constructors title. And for doing what is accepted up and down the pitlane as common practise and was going on in several other teams at the same time. Oh and all at the instigation of a Ferrari employee. Meanwhile Ferrari are accepting backhanders and letting the FIA rig rules and races for them. Some sport!!

I doubt it, didn't Schumacher have some say in where the cash went so surely he'd make sure it got to Ferrari via some other route in addition to the extra they were already recieving.

It went in to road safety.
