Hey everyone, this is my first ever post, so please be gentle! But just thought I'd get my opinion across.
Was just wondering what other Formula 1 fans (not just Ferrari fans) thought of Massa's extremely soft penalty at last weekend's race. Not taking anything away from the guy, he drove brilliantly and deserved to win.
I can't help but feel that if it was Hamilton (or any other non-Ferrari driver for that matter) the punishment would have been much more severe.
I mean if any of you saw the GP2 feature race, you will have seen two drivers (sorry cant remember who they were now) receive drive through penalties for their dangerous release from the pits, no worse than Massa's example in question. Yet he received "just" a £10.000 fine for the same offence.
I just can't help but feel that the FIA are extremely biased towards Ferrari, and them wanting them to win both championships.
Take Hungary last year for example, with the whole Alonso-Hamilton qualifying fiasco. If it had been two Ferrari drivers, would they really have lost all their constructors points for the weekend!?
More recently this year, the blocking punishment on McLaren in Malaysia, and Hamilton's rather harsh drive-through penalty in France!? These events together with last weekend in Valencia made me think.
I'm sorry but I can't help but feel there's a pro-Ferrari/anti-McLaren conspiracy going on in the comically run FIA. So many decisions seem to go just one way, the way of the prancing horse!
Anyone agree with me?
Or do you think I'm talking rubbish and being paranoid?
Opinions please..............
Thank you.
