Well, Alonso didn't say anything stupid this week (not yet) but action speaks louder then words. Anyone watched SpeedTV live coverage of the interviews with all the drivers?? Each team would send two drivers (at the same time) to the stage for some questions from Speed and the audience. Sato & Davidson, Massa & Kimi, etc... but when it comes to the McLaren's turn, only Alonso was on stage, after Alonso left the stage, LH was allowed his turn on stage.

Also, Alonso said the swerving towards the pitlane was a way to cool down the car and not directed at the team. Well, according to Haug and some McLaren's officials, it was a message sent by Alonso to the team that he's annoyed. http://www.f1-live.com/f1/en/headlines/ ... 0204.shtml

If it's a way of cooling the car, what was he waving his fist for?

aerodynamic tactics


Yea I think he was pissed off and later settled down. But you have to hand it to LH as he went out of his way to praise the #1 driver! :lol:

But wouldn't waving his fist around out of the cockpit create a bit more drag? :P

according to some Ferrari fans Alonso made the swerve because he was told not to make another pass on Lewis. and vented his frustration at the team order..

ooo team orders!!!!!!

Fernando doesn't need to worry, next race he will have the advantage and then everyone will be saying that McLaren favours Alonso again.

Why would Ferrari want a washed-up ex champion who's mastery consists of whining about everything and everybody?

But they learnt from the non-whining model citizen MS and wouldn't put up with crap like FA is pulling.
