The fiasco at Indy..
Tiago Montiero,
Look down the list of links on the side of this rant and you will see a lot of links to F1 stuff. The sport didnt cover itself in glory at the weekend with events at the US gp at Indianapolis. And it being the land of the free, it hasnt taken long for the first Lawsuit to be filed!! Ex driver, and setanta commentator David Kennedy has also spoken and he didnt mince his words as to what he thought of it all. And just to top it all off it seems as if the story will run and run. Basically Michelin who provide tyres to seven of the teams made a bit of a balls of the whole situation but team politics didnt help either!! Anyway the end result of it is that 6 cars started, and Jordan driver Tiago Montiero (pictured above signing autographs for an esteemed member of the public at a Silverstone test session) managed to score a podium, ie third for jordan!! The whole thing had a Victor Meldrew feeling about it, and if you want to discuss it with some fans click here.
