Do you think 99% of Ferrari fans would change their mind about that if it was Ferrari and not Mercedes-Benz in the top slots so far this season ?

I guess they came in with a lot of expectation, for the last few years Monte moaned about development of the cars being restricted to aero. Now he got what he wanted but not happy with the result.

I can't remember a time when politics were absent and teams weren't using and abusing the regulations and fighting over it in F1. Admittedly, my memories won't span as far back a yours, Derek.

I remember a certain Brazilian being dq by a certain French ringmaster one Japanese GP. I also remember the same location being where the pole position was for 'some reason' moved overnight.

F1 is bigger than any one team or ringmaster and it'll never be happy families.

Certainly the politics have been there since the '60s. Pole at Japan wasn't moved overnight in '90 though. Senna started from the same side it had started every year at Suzuka up to that race, including '89 when Senna started from pole as well, and had a bad start because it was not on the racing line. I am guessing that's why he wanted it moved, but the FIA (or the stewards) refused. I believe, however, that it was indeed moved to the left side by the 1991 race.
