Jackie Speaks Out !!

[Kopite Girl 0]

Bernie runs F1 like it's still in the 70's, which might be great for all you Pommie green gumboot and tweed jacket wearing fans that can't stand to alter a tradition in the slightest, but the rest of the world are almost at the year 2010.

Funny guy!

I'm under the impression that its indeed Jackie Stewart who wears the green gumboot/tweed jacket donald wheres yer troosers outfit?

Well I'm probably one of the few forum members who agrees with Sir JS on this one.

Look at the mess that F1 is in. Max comes out with a statement criticising excessive costs. Yet its the Bernie and Max Show that has got F1 into this situation. In addition, the FIA under Max's leadership can't resist constantly fiddling with the rules and regs. Bernie pockets huge wadges of cash at the expense of the circuits and teams. The fans lose out through less teams, extortionate prices for track visits, less competitive racing and a manufacturer-focused bias which now seems to have back-fired a little.

Time for them to go.

Bernie is boss so he can say whatever he wants!

I'd agree but he is becoming very outspoken himself these days.

Bernie has now come out in support of Massa to win the title.

A little unwise in so much as if Massa's rival is excluded from a race then we are back to the Ferrari special treatment stories again.

IRL / Nascar / NFL / NBA / Football - all the TV shows are presented in a far superior manner than F1. The TV audience is what F1 is all about, and, frankly, a kids Saturday morning TV show has more get up and go factor to it.

Maybe its just your NZL coverage that is poor? When we watch football or tennis we dont need special options to see what each player is doing at any point in the match; F1 coverage in my opinion is absolutely fine, and will be even better for us Brits next year as there'll be no more ad breaks

American TV does suck! When I was in NY I was watching the World Is Not Enough & there was a commercial every 10 mins! Sorry for going OT, don't know why but I'm making loadsa posts on a few forums!

My parents said that too when they got back from US after spending a few months there (about the TV being abysmal)!
