You don't think Ron was just saying that because it was the Itlaian Evening Times (Corriere della Sera)?

Nothing begets magnanimity in an englishman like being on top.

I can't say I'm entirely surprised.

Have a care, you might unsettle the colonies with that kind of talk.

Mind you, RD suggesting that relations with Ferrari are better than ever is a classic case of damming by faint praise.

Mind you, under new management the Ferrari attitude has changed considerably and for the better. It is virtually a new team compared to the MSchuey area, and the better for F1 as well. I was really put off them under RB, RB and especially JT.

All we need to do now is to eliminate the FiA bias and we stand a chance of honourable racing again.

Maybe when we get a new team at the FIA that will happen. Here's hoping....
