New team disorganization a joke, says Webber
New team disorganization a joke, says Webber - Formula 1 news - GPUpdate.net
Mark Webber believes that the various situations surrounding Formula 1's newest teams are not something for the sport to be proud of on the run-up to the start of the 2010 World Championship , with Campos having not tested its car and US F1 looking to miss the entire season.
With Campos' name becoming Hispania less than a fortnight before the start of the upcoming campaign and US requesting to skip the season, Red Bull driver Webber has compared the state of affairs to certain children's cartoons.
"It's embarrassing," the Queanbeyan driver explained to Australian news agency AAP. "It's incredible that people who haven't yet turned a wheel take part in Grands Prix. It's the sort of stuff from Mickey Mouse or Tom and Jerry."
Webber, who clinched race victory twice last year, went on to jokingly suggested than a MotoGP machine would be more appropriate. "It would make more sense to field Valentino Rossi, with his bike, on the grid," Mark continued. "He is great - F1 needs a character like him. For my first victory of 2010 I will do something for the fans…it won't be as brilliant, Rossi-style, but enough to thank them."

He IS right about Valentino Rossi, that's for sure. And I can definitely see his frustration towards all the politics and the new teams coming into the sport, but hey, he should just focus on his racing and let the chips fall where they may.

Yup. Unlike his punk upside down ass (and most F1 drivers, actually), Rossi wouldn't bitch and moan about random politics. He'd laugh it off, come up with a ridiculous new costume, and blow everyone's minds on the track. Fookin' F1 politics.
