People call Alonso a cry baby ... now we are looking at a Ferrari team who is crying even more for FIA not imposing penalty on Mclarens ..Now please tell me who is the real cry baby ? Just look at the pictures of Jean Todt...he is almost in tears where as Ron Dennis is smiling with grace...Mclarens, Alonso and Hamilton RULES

what crap, you steal designs all over and not expect people to complain ? theyve benefitted immensely, and made changes that are nudge-wink in nature. the reason why FIA is not doing a thing is because of financial implications if the tight fight is disturbed. right now the championship is going smoothly, if that were to be disturbed, the revenue will drop. you're a mclaren fanboy, little else.

Have you seen it in person. Don't just make allegations... that they have incorporated. Do you think those technical details of any subject would be just incorporated without looking the fit of some others design to theirs... You fool first try to evaluate and then comment.

The best story on rediff so far

For all you Ferrari fans, this is sweet revenge. Lets hope that McLaren gets kicked out. The only reason they are on top this season is because they indulge in such tactics. If they were really so good how come they flopped so badly last season. Compare the two and you will know... McLaren and Alonso suck.

Ferrari and their off track tactics are known to all.I think u started watching from last year...Dont jump to conclusions as you can read from the article that there is no immediate proof about the usage of ferrari data.Alonso and Hamilton are good drivers and thats precisely the reason Mclarens are doing well.Look at the fate of Renault once Alonso left the team.Mclarens are going to win this years championship and all the bootlickers of Ferrari and Schumi will cry ur heart out, Practice mourning from now on

There is nothing great about Alfonso. Renaults are done by the change in tyres this year. Alfonso's move to Mclaren was a good one. He knew precisely what was going to happen. Mclaren has a good car this year. That is why the rookie is in the top; no offense to Hamilton as he is a fantastic driver with right spirit.

First thing first Alfonso is a mango where as Alonso is a F1 Driver.People started to make fun of Alonso when he decided to move to Mclarens cause the team was performing very badly during that time, so there is no point in stating that he knows that Mclarens are going to improve.Its just the jealousy of the Schumi fans not to accept the great(??????)'s defeat in the hands of ALonso for 2 succesive years

Karthik,
Its not about jealousy. Its about the attitude of Alfonso. Last year he accused his own team, Renault of under performing as he will be going to Mclaren as number 1 driver. This year he is saying that Hamilton is getting all the privileges. And his spat with Massa and his own team mate. He won the last two championships by luck to his own admission(Thankfully which he did).Kimi had reliability issues and so had Michael towards the end.

Please explain me how you will feel when ur own team behave boorishly when ur team mate overtakes you ?? Agreed to an extent that he cant control his mouth,but im not aware of him agreeing that he won the championships by sheer luck.If you look at his racing you will know he deserves to be a champ.Kimi people may say he has reliability problems, but what is he doing with Ferrari??? Massa is more consistent than him.Kimi is a over hyped driver and about Schumi ..who has once lead to fight with Coulthard in pits...who crashed others for his title ( Damon Hill and Jaques villeneuve) ... asked his team mate to slowdown (Barichello) ...the less we speak the better ...

Very well said.Schumi is very unsporting.Alonso is a cry baby but he does that off the track.On the track he is the best ....No question about that

schumi is not ALWAYS unsporting. he's been that at times, these guys are in a different mold, win at all cost like senna. Schumi has been one of best guys on formula one wheels, alonso is good too but difficult to stack up against schumi. like schumi had shown that he had it in him to compete aganst hakkinen with an inferior car, mclaren those days was much ahead of ferrari, and yet schumi won racing hard. thats why schumi is known to be a fighter. yeah he's had some odd times, but you cant take the genius out of him. alonso is good, time will tell if he's great as schumi. right now they have a great setup (mclaren) so even the rookie has it easy (besides hamilton spent a lot of time on the simulator and the car before he went into the championship). we will come to know how good hamilton is in the coming years.

being a true formula one fan, we should any new talent, and some fierce competition by the top teams.

Hey then its quite possible that Ferrari must have stolen the technology from MClarens some time back ...as you said anything is possible...then we should question the greatness of Schumi leave Alonso alone

To put an end this conversation... If F1 is a religion, Schumi is God, Alonso is follower and Lewis is Starter.
