interesting comments from B.E. "I can see them (hamilton / alonso) going off together. I'd love to see that. Just like McLarens £50m fine. It would bring a lot of publicity to the sport." (ITV teletext).
Is it just me that finds that kind of comment from the F1 supremo just slightly disturbing? Seems to me there was another agenda re the whole spygate fiasco. Yet again, financial greed over-riding sport.

I think he was re-living the Prost/Senna (both McLaren team mates) incident of 1989 (and the ridiculous first corner incident of 1990 at the same race).

Bernie is an expert at making comments that can be disturbing :rolleyes:
