demonhorse 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2005 Hey guys, stumbled across this forum, and after browsing a few posts, thought I'd sign up. soo ummm hi. Uhh ok a few things about myself. I'm a Ferrari fan first and foremost, but like and/or respect most of the drivers and teams. There is only really 2 people in F1 at the moment I don't like, and well... you'll be able to guess soon enough who they are (one's a driver, the other runs a team). I've been watching F1 since about 1988 and regularly since about '95. The technical side of F1 interests me, but at the same time I think rule changes over the last few years are to blame for F1 becoming less interesting then it once was. but all that is for further debate in other threads I think... ok some non F1 related stuff... umm I like most types of music, many different types of films and I work in finance management. I'm based in the UK (i have no idea how many members here are, so thought I'd add that, lol) Hobbies and interests include F1, Wrestling (WWE's competition at the moment), Sci-fi, and IT, which is what I'm looking to do a college course or apprenticeship in. Feel free to ask any other stuff if ya really wanna know, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

demonhorse 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2005 erm.... is is kimi you dislike perchance?! and... let me guess.... Paul Stoddart? Because he's like the anti-Ferrari? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> actually I like/respect Paul because he's kept a team going at the back of the grid for so long, despite people questioning why he bothers along the way. I like his passion for the sport, despite all the little problems he himself causes. Nah for the team boss I don't like... look closer to Kimi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

demonhorse 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2005 Despite the lack of net forums, I still knew a lot of F1 fans (most of whom have not lost interest due to constantly changing rules) who got bored easily of Ferrari dominance but not of Williams and McLaren winning all the time. Also the same people who love the fact Rossi is dominant in MotoGP yet hate the same dominance from Ferrari. In fact same case can be made for almost any other sport that has had dominant figures... it seems to be OK to blow away the rest unless it's a certain red car in F1.

Sato 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2005 Perhaps its because Ferrari, enjoy stretching rules to the extreme, and seemingly get a ahand from the FIA, along with a certain german who has a tendency to cheat when the WC is on the line. Im sure plenty of people weren't all that happy when other teams have dominated though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
demonhorse 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2005 ahh referring to incidents that occured 5 or more years ago I see. I can't think of any more recent examples... and it's not like Ferrari are the ONLY team to cheat, or stretch the rules to get better results so no-one can play the selfrighteous card on that front. *coff McLarenstartof98, tractioncontrolbrakepedal coff* *coff BARSanMarinoExtrafuelreserve coff* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
