Renaultgate

Post by Moses Botbol »

What do you think of Renaultgate? A bit of irony for poor old Flavio. As much as I love port, I am as equally incessant about Formula 1. Just can’t right the headlines like F1 has had between Mosley, Stepneygate, and now this… On one hand it demeans the sport, but the drama this last couple of years is surly entertaining.

Yes, entertaining, but sad. It was not unexpected to see Flavio go. This reminds me of all the scandal in Pro Cycling over the last few years. Teams and riders were all dirty. Anyway... it *has* been interesting, but the sport needs to clean up and move on. In spite of this, it's been an exciting F1 year so far!

I think there should've been some financial penalty, but I do not call the shots. Seeing Flavio banned from F1 for ever is a big deal. They really socked it to him. Piquet Jr. may get a second chance. Perhaps Renault will sign him after (assuming it will happen) Alonso leaves Renault?
