I agree, the restart was necessary. If the problem can be cleared in one or
two laps, ok, but that crash was big and was going to take a long time to
clean up. JV was being silly when he said what he said. F1 cars are not
designed to run behind a pace car (and their tyres definitly are not). They
lose pressure which can lead to big problems on the restart (some theories
on Senna's crash point blame to the long pace car period prior to the
restart). Not to mention the fact that they would have restarted not knowing
if they had picked up punctures whilst going through the debris (which again
could have led to a big crash). Charlie made the right decision, and people
who think Schumacher gets favoured by FIA are just *** theorists and
talking rubbish. Personally I don't like him very much (Hill fan, and cannot
forgive him for Adelaide 94), but I do rate him. Thats my two pence worth.

And as I pointed out, we have a mix of different types of athletes due to
being a country of different ethnic backgrounds, and China doesn't.

I was with you until that silly remark. Mansell was the best British driver
I've ever seen. He had B A L L S !!

Ok, guy's. The championship is over. It was over before the German GP. It
was over the moment Coulthard crashed out of the British GP. It doesn't
really matter that they restarted the race. Would David have won? No. He
probably would not have even been in the top 3. So it makes little
difference. I can see all the Schumacher bashing if it had actually
mattered. They didn't red flag the German GP last year, why would they red
flag this years, and not last years if it had been some kind of Schumacher
***?
Also, did you guy's see the cars driving over all the parts they were doing
maybe 40 Mph, and this was before the red flag, and saftey car came out. You
can't tell me F1 drivers would slow that much, if there was no risk. I did
not see one car fly through that. I didn't see David fly through all that
stuff, to take the lead. No he followed the car in front of him.

oh yeah, that's why they only have like 5 different languages...

Just because they are the same "colour" doesn't mean they have the same
ethnic background...

There can be as much difference between a Manchu from the north and a
Cantonese from the south as between an american from NY and a frenchman from
Marseille (and GOD knows I have nothing to do with New-Yorkers)

Hey "Txl" U watch it now, talking about "New-Yorkers!"
I worked there for over 18years & many of my best laps
were done on the streets of Manhattan! :)

Montoya has been using a different tyre compound to Ralf, which has affected
qualifying performance.

Sitting for 30 seconds in a pitstop with the car boiling over as every
second passed by has nothing to do with it, of course...

Not disagreeing with the fact that JPM needs to improve, just some facts I
think are relevant to the discussion.

Oh well, as long as we've got an *expert* on the newsgroup case closed then!
Or didn't the Michelin statement register anything with you?
But JV knows more about tyres than the people who make them, of course.

I read somewhere that the fuel rig did actually fill the tank, and that the
car had almost twice as much fuel when he left the pits, makes me wonder if
there is something to that.
