http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFUJjm0yXNc - I can't blame Montoya for walking out, I'd have killed the comedians until they were dead! :twisted:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhHy7O6nJCo - Alesi forgets Schumacher's name...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMCmiTnFlL4 - Montoya again, this time in a bitch-fight! :whip:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQWSfiAfB4o - Montoya yet again, this time arguing with a camera-man (and we thought only Kimi had a penchant for ritual press beatings) :D
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yO46XtCqn0 - And a naughty marshall! :rofl:

I watched that race where Montoya got punted from behind and tookout Harvick and foundout something very interesting. Harvick was Montoya's biggest mentor when he came into NASCAR and I found Harvick's action's disgusting and immature. Freakin hot headed American arse's!! :D

Nelson Piquet and Eliseo Salazar's punch-up. :)

Piquet is such a butthole! Why did he try to pass when he had NO front wing so no frontend downforce? :rolleyes:

Although I'm thinking, and from my perspective, is that Piquet was pissed off at Salazar because of a 'get together' that the camera's did not catch which took off his front wing?

Some cars during the peak of the Ground-Effect era were able to generate good enough ground-effects meaning they didn't need the front wings, so they ditched them. This will have been the case with Piquet's Brabham in that video.

You may be correct about that as Salazar also had no front wing so I guess that version of the Brabham BT49 was a very early version?

I'm not certain but this most likely is the later version:

I think it depended on what track they were at depending on the front wing, Hockenheim was a fast circuit so I guess they didn't need the front wings anyway.

I also could never endure his hollier than thou attitude but that fool could drive and when he did not let his ego exceed his skill he was a force to be reconded with.

And at least knew how to have a laugh when times were tough, especially with pranks on Balestre - something you wouldn't get away with doing on Max Mosley today without having your superlicence revoked/Championship points being deducted/10 place grid penalty and a scandal following it, oh I could see it now...

"Nelson Piquet has been hit with a 10 place grid penalty for the next race after pouring a jug of water into Max Mosley's £10 jacket from Matalan during a very dull driver's briefing before today's race."

or...

"Jacques Laffite has had 10 points deducted from his World Championship tally after ariving at the Dallas Street Circuit this morning in his pyjamas."
