Good stuff Dana, but isn't this basically the same article that's over at hellof1.com albeit a little shorter?

Horner brings up a great point about the preferential treatment to Ferrari. Without Ferrari, F1 would lose a ton of credibility and by beating Ferrari the last two years in a row makes Red Bull look better than beating teams like Williams, Sauber, Lotus, etc. When you ask people who aren't as familiar with racing what their favorite team is in motorsports, the average layman will say Ferrari just because it's the one brand that has really made a huge contribution and impact on motorsports in general.

While it's more "fair" for the better finishing teams to get paid more, the sport would lose something if the payouts went any other way.

Great article, Dana!

 

What is your point?

There is an article on every major F1 board about this topic.

It's called news.

The link you show is the Autosport article that I quote and credit in my piece.

 

this all make perfect sense to me.....

 

good read

 

Great stuff Dana! Always a good read.

didnt know it was like that, thanks

 

I looked and although I do see you quoting but I do not see whom you're crediting those quotes. I just see where it says " Photo and Text by Dana Larkin." Whenever I make a post, I always make it a point to post my sources if I end up using quotes from elsewhere.

 

TS should pay me to keep this place legit
