Oh, wait, it's not 9-6-4-2-1 yet, is it. Still, it's not the crummy
points system keeping Alonso from being practically unbeatable. Even
really stupid systems, like 10-9-8-... leave Alonso only having to
finish a few more races.

Props to Michael Schumacher BTW, 3rd in the WDC thus far in the PoS
F2005; not that he'll keep it with Juan Pablo on the rampage.

Just been looking on the F1 entry list for a Fiat. Can't find one
anywhere.

Guess you don't like Aston Martin, just a Ford really, isn't it? I
don't see the appeal of Lamborghinis either, I mean, who wants a VW?

Except... the Aston V-12 really is two Ford Mondeo V-6s bodged
together and the Gallardo's chassis and engine are built on VW lines
somewhere in Elbonia.

There is _no_ connection between FIAT Auto Group and Ferrari.

LOL!

Funny, when I look at that pic with my orange-tinted glasses on I can't
see the word "Fiat" anywhere...

Vodafone? Do they build F1 cars too? Or do you mean Shell? Olympus?
I thought you'd know the difference between sponsorship (even from a
parent company) and the entry list...

Silly me.

From the poster who said "There is *no* connection between FIAT Auto
Group and Ferrari".

So Ferrari display the FIAT logo for free? And they design and produce
it themselves. Or maybe one of the FIAT workers nicked a logo, snuck
into the Ferrari garage and stuck the sticker on, and the Ferrari mechs
never noticed?
