I wouldn't be surprised if it has anything to do with Larry's outspoken comments with regard to the officials in the past. He certainly didn't hold back after it happened.

Even Tim Edwards was getting a bit emotional about it.Oh and love the late-night telecast, everything goes to air without censorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful not to slip on your pool of dribble pet Expensive Daewoo is hoping the PG will be slower. Until it runs we just won't know the truth, but it'll hardly be way slower considering the only real changes will be body panels. Apart from that, some of the teams were already trialing the new motor configurations for the FG in their BFs in Bahrain. The motors are supposed to produce more power so that should overcome any additional drag from the FG panels.Also, get out of your mate Skaife's arse. It's not his team and he's not stepping aside. He was replaced by Davidson. He was offered a 3rd car as a consilation, but he didn't want to be a second stringer. Don't worry though, you'll still get to see him slowing up other drivers when he comes back to partner in the endurance races. Maybe he could team up with Morris, now that would be an even pairing!

Hope Craig can get enough points to punt Tander from third.Did anyone else think the Skaife interview after he crashed into Tander a bit strange...???From memory it went abit like this (this is not a direct quote)...So Skaifie, tells us what happened.I saw the trouble down at the corner, so braked hard and tried to get out of the way but ran into Garth, ooopps (big smile and shrug of sholders)???!!!Do I read abit of rivalry here between Skaife & Tander????Bahrain, yes great track but no one there.

Doesn't matter if no one goes, it's all covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
