Yet again the world of F1 is brought into disrepute through 'team orders'. That's why I never watch it. It should be about who is the best driver - I don't really care about who wins the constructors Championship.
It's a sport that's rotten to the core.

Team orders have been in the sport since it started and no matter what rules FIA make the teams will find other ways to get around them. What happened yesterday was a disgrace, if they were smart about it and coded the message better no one would know and it would've looked like a legitimate passing move. Lets just be thankful the racing this season has been awesome (apart from Bahrain) and if we're lucky we'll have another British world champion.

Surely the fia must be seen to be taking strong action or it just results in even more lack of interest from the public, as if a lack of overtaking isnt enough boredom when they do overtake its on orders! Id imagine Jean Todt is in a very awkward position right now

I saw some Ayrton Senna thing on Top Gear last night and the one thing you can generally say about modern era British Formula 1 Drivers is that they seem to have had personality by-passes. Lewis Hamilton, Nigel Mansell and Martin Brundle don't have a single jot of character between them, to which you can Jensen Button and Damon Hill. Hamilton and Mansell in particular are real mogadon men. I know it doesn't affect their ability to drive but christ, they are boring. Martin Brundle is hardly boring. His pit lane interviews prove that.
