[Fot] The Hamilton Case

[RACER BUD]

Hello Gang...I tried to send this message directly but it bounced back a 
couple of times....
In Vintage Racing...In Essence...1. There are Waaay too many incidents of 
passing/not seeing the yellow flag.....
2. There are Way too many Vintage race drivers who appear to be very much 
out of condition physically...
How do they get their license/medical card?.....
We have argued for many years that We(Race Drivers) are Athletes..we Are 
Athletes!...We need to be FIT Athletes.....or....Not Race!
Racer Bud ..Racing since 1968

>> Well Ladies and Gents, today is the day of the Hamilton/McLaren appeal

>> Time to get your bets down on the outcome.

>> A few hints for the sophisticated punter:
>>
>>    ~ Since the initial decision and the following uproar, the F.I.A.

>> "Drivers have to wait until the next corner to overtake if they go
>> ahead over a chicane." Does everyone remember the meaning of the Latin

>>
>>    ~ Sir Stirling has issued a statement to the effect that the
>> decision to penalize Hamilton was "disgraceful" and "a load of crap",
>> made by "clueless" stewards who "know they are wrong".
