Cheating in GP2 possible?

Is it possible to cheat like Schumacher did in 1994? I want my car closer to the ground, have launch control...etc.

:Is it possible to cheat like Schumacher did in 1994? :I want my car closer to the ground, have launch control...etc. Turn on Steering Help and Throttle Help - that's close enough to cheating, though no doubt someone will soon bring out a patch to replace the plank with titanium, so you can drag it all the way round the track. However, Schumi still got disqualified at Spa for wearing the plank out, so that bit of cheating didn't work! <g> Ken -- ___ ,_, ___ Ken Nicolson (o,o) (o,o) ,,,(o,o),,, -"-"- -"-"- -"-"- +44 xxx xxx xxxx hoots about my opinions.

Actually, my wayward friend, Schumi wasn't cheating. He spun over a kerb, and this caused the illegal plank wear. He was disqualified just to make the championship more interesting, and it kinda did. Hey, macarena!

Hmm, one little spin causing all that plank wear? I don't think so. The ride height was set so low that they knew the plank would get worn some. Benetton weren't cheating though. They were taking a calculated gamble as allowed by the rules. If Schuy had stayed on the track, the plank wouldn't have worn quite enough to be disqualified. They gambled and lost. Cheers, Richard

Have you got proof for this? Anyway this is the kind of discussion that goes on in the f1 newsgroup, not here... -- Bruno Schleich Pt/Lx
