you could always get your team mate to crash, slow the­ race so you can win? just a thought

To jonathanbanks37, if you don't like F1, why do­ you post so many comments?
You read the words! If you­ think it's boring, switch off, all true F1 fans­ want the sport to increase in popularity, but not­ amongst small minded peopl, stick to football or some­ other low intellect sport is my advice, on any other­ sport, I keep my thoughts to myself when in the company­ of 'fans' of the sport. Mainly because they­ know and understand more than I do!

To 305 .....Die

To jonathanbanks37 on 305... probably they dont have­ the balls(if u say so) or they are not ready to die­ young. I know im not. So if u want to go kill urself on­ the road somewhere in Man...suit yourself but let the­ bike god out of it. NO talent!!u got to be joking me!!

ok idiot big headed alfonso the clown

Wow gee-mo! You are psychic and can tell what people­ read in the article and anyone who disagrees with you­ is a sheep. The title was a direct quote by the­ big-head himself, how can that be misleading. And­ it's really all about technology? Funny, I thought­ it was a spectator sport and should be exciting - silly­ me.

If the fans switch off, who pays his salary? Then the­ bonehead will really be whingeing/complaining!!!!

It is sad to see that hardly anyone actually read­ Alonso's real quote, only the misleading headline.­ As a result we get a slew of reactionary posts based on­ pure conjecture not on Alonso's actual words.­

Alonso was actually quite insightful about the state­ F1 (presently and in recent years) and yet without­ reading the true meaning of his words, many people­ start calling for a public lynching. It's easy to­ see why thoughtless masses are capable of atrocious­ crimes.

Enjoy your life as a sheep chumps, and may­ you reap what you sew!

First of All - KF, his head is already bigger literally­ when you calculate the head to body ratio. But frankly­ what he says is logical. Switch channels when you think­ its boring...I found it boring long time ago. Eyes­ glued only to F1 when it rains. For me, that is the­ only element that makes more dramas. If there still was­ an excitement in F1 -I guess that would be when Slater­ is the commentator in the broadcast. Hero to Zero.­ LOL....

I think people are being unfair. The sport is clearly­ in a rather tight spot at the moment and is going­ through a transition period. I hope that they find a­ set of rules that look as if they will work and then­ stick to them - that way the gaps between the cars will­ narrow significantly and we can get rid of this crazy­ "loop hole" based engineering and get some­ real innovation. I thought a big part of this sport was­ supposed to be the drivers engaging with the technical­ people to push the development of the car forwards -­ surely this can only happen when there is a degree of­ stability to the rules?

I reckon that if we give this­ season a chance, everyone will see how exciting F1 can­ be - especially when MS starts ramming everyone off the­ road to make up for his cars lack of pace like he did­ during the Bennetton (Benneton? Benetton??? However­ it's flipping well spelled!) years ;-).

Hypocrite

Maybe Fernando Alonso said that cos he knows it's­ all fixed and maybe trying to tell us viewers something­ by lifting the lid? It depends which way you look at­ it. I honestly think F1 is boring now!! IT HAS­ NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW GOOD A DRIVER IS, BUT HOW­ RELIABLE THE CAR IS!! THEN THEY TAKE AWAY­ REFUELLING!!! i USED TO LIKE IT BEFORE WHEN RACES­ WHER WON ON PIT STOP STRATEGY...BUT NOW ITS LIKE A­ PARADE MERRY GO ROUND!! O BOY!! LISTEN EVEN­ MICHAEL SCHUMACHER QUESTIONED THE NEW RULES AND LACK OF­ OVER TAKING!!! No, I've had enough. Plus I­ don't like the BBC commentator, he sounds like a­ Kids TV Presenter!!! Plus I don't like any of­ the BBC Football commentators, they are all dead!! ­ I'm a fan of John Motson, and this years World Cup­ will not be the same without him!!! OK, sometimes he­ over does it, but for me personally, hes the voice of­ ENGLISH FOOTBALL!!

thanks for the advice. i´ll watch something else

Why not paint all the cars red, call them ferrari,­ ensure that the FIA get the back handers and change the­ rules every race? Say 12 core rules and put them in a­ saw-dust barrel. Pick out six and they will be the­ rules for that race! Then the winner will always be the­ red car, the money men will be happy and the excitement­ for the punter will be what rules!

When FERRARI wins (and one/two) especially, for some of­ you is absolutely boring, but if that was one/ two of­ some British (or German) team could be very­ amusing.

For johnatanbanks:
Lets go in Stone age and­ make some F1 car with wooden chassis and stone wheels.­ It will be quite a car.
How someone can be so ........­ to comment like this. Please don't waste space and­ our time with stupid comments like this one.

I can understand now why kids call grown ups­ boring!!! As you grow older all you see is politics­ and money and everything is a business.....the worlds­ boring! It's not a competition anymore its all an­ advert for engineering and other things! F1 to me is­ so predictable, SO YES I WILL BE SWITCHING OFF!! F1­ IS FIXED, I have said that for years! SAME WITH­ FOOTBALL TOO, THATS BORING AND A BIG BUSINESS...NOT­ SURE IF ANYTHING EXCITES ME IN THIS WORLD ANYMORE! ­ HAVE A PINT!!

Interesting comment made by the spanish driver, sitting­ here to watch the first practice at 1.00 in the morning­ im doing fine, sunday however the hard drive is waiting­ to record the drizzle that we can come to expect so i­ can watch it in 5 minutes and not miss 3 hours sleep.
