Scuderia offers to surrender

Team Ferrari intends to voluntarily complete the struggle this season, if drivers do not give a result on the home track of Monza during the next phase of "Formula 1 - Italian Grand Prix. Punishment for Scuderia command tactics in Germany, contrary to expectations, meanwhile, has not followed. Chief newsmaker last week before the Italian Grand Prix was the team of Ferrari. It is on this week was supposed to sound verdict FIA World Council on the fact of the Italians command tactics during a race in Germany when walking the first Felipe Massa was asked to move aside and skip forward Fernando Alonso, because he had more chances for the title. At the end stage of Ferrari was fined $ 100,000, and the case was transferred to a higher authority, in order to determine the penalty. During the time elapsed since the end of the German Grand Prix, on command tactics Scuderia managed to speak it. Particularly zealous honored retirees sharper all - triple world champion Niki Lauda. Command tactics were obvious and unacceptable. People bought tickets to see the victory of the strongest rider. Yesterday was a fraud on the audience - he said. - Yesterday, Ferrari has shown tremendous form. Why did they decide to abandon the ideal of winning? After the finish, Fernando said such nonsense that I had never heard before. He clearly showed that he has no character. " Lauda, ??of course, is a great racer and a legend "Formula 1", but lately his opinion, without which it can not do none of the scandal, more and more losing its weight. I would not like to use terms such as senile marasmus and so on, but Lauda whether the last ten years, shall act solely for the use of the command of tactics? Not to be unfounded, give examples. "If McLaren poses a serious problem, and they will soon have to follow the example of Ferrari, sacrificing the interests of one of the drivers for the benefit of the whole team. And the sooner they do, the more effectively be able to withstand a Ferrari in the championship "(Niki Lauda, ??2001). Command tactics Ferrari for me is a logical step. Each other are two cars. One of them claims the title, the other - no. It is only logical to do so and the fans should understand this "(Niki Lauda, ??2008). Moreover, the Lauda his third championship title earned it through the command tactics and Alain Prost in 1984, literally prepodnesshemu Nicky victory. Apparently, read a file of their own interviews, veteran and decided to go back down, saying that such an interview he gave, although his comment was posted on the official site of Formula 1. " Before that, he, however, still managed to "grab" of his former teams - Ferrari champion urged to shut up. Guide "Formula 1" is very jealous of the issues of command tactics. It is officially banned regulations, and violated his severely punished. Excluding this, the last such case occurred as recently as 2008, when Nelson Piquet Jr. crashed his car to help ... Fernando Alonso win the race. Familiar with all the characters, does not it? For this team leader Flavio Briatore was disqualified for life, as Nelson put an end to his career in Formula 1. " Alonso also came out unscathed. But this event was, of course, out of the ordinary. Last identical violation dated 2002, when the boxes Ferrari (all familiar faces!) Ordered Rubens Barrichello in the lead pass ahead of Michael Schumacher, who claimed for another title. The team then was fined one million dollars and promised to continue to punish violators of the rules even stricter, until withdrawing from the tournament. Something like this waiting, this time all the secret haters Scuderia. But no luck. Hearing was chaired by Vice-President FIA for Sport Graham Stoker, a famous specialist in the field of sports law. In this case, the current president of the FIA ??and the former head of Ferrari, Jean Todt and not been allowed in the courtroom. From the team attended the current boss Stefano Domenicali, and pilots - Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa - answered questions on video. As a result, the World Council did not revoke the previously imposed fine on Ferrari in the amount of $ 100,000, but refused to apply additional penalties against the Italian stable, as the conspiracy can not be proven. In addition, FIA Sports Working Group proposed to revise the current prohibition on the use of command tactics. "July 25, 2010 during the German Grand Prix stewards have determined that the violations on the part of Ferrari, who used Command tactics that influenced the outcome of the race and decided to impose a fine of $ 100,000 and to refer the case to the World Motor Sport Council for further consideration - reads the conclusion of the Council. - After a detailed analysis of all the attached reports, statements and documents of a judicial authority approved the decision of the stewards of the fine and ordered the team to compensate for costs incurred by the FIA ??». Ferrari welcomed the decision of the Board and immediately made a statement which shocked all of her fans. Stefano Domenicali said his team will write off in 2010 and will cease to fight for the title, if the drivers did not show good results on the track at Monza. "If the leadership of Red Bull will continue to increase, on Monday we start all our personnel and resources for a project car for next season" - he said. At this point in the Constructors' Championship separation of Red Bull from Ferrari has already reached 80 points, a team leader Fernando Alonso concedes 41 points Lewis Hamilton of McLaren and 38 points - Mark Webber of Red Bull. However, when the last time ahead of Scuderia finished the fight, and it is difficult to remember.
