I bet if Takuma Sato is kicked out of F1, the other drivers would celebrate not because they got one competitor off but a track hazard.

I was pertaining to the sanction for Schumi. If it were Montoya or some picked-on driver, there would have been a huge fine. Well, no one made a fuss when Kimi pushed race marshals on two occasions. There's no due process in F1.

The FIA only allowed to give Yuji Ide the superlicense because Aguri invoked the case of Kimi Raikkonen which the FIA reluctantly issued a superlicense before as a rookie when Kimi has extremely little F1 driving experience to his name at that time.

Ide is just a sucker of a driver. Have you ever heard of slow and dangerous? Well, he's your Otaku. And no way can he be juxtaposed to Raikkonen. Max Mosley was skeptic with this guy at the start and

Aguri seems to employ bigotry by forcing in two Japanese drivers no matter what. I'm pretty sure he'd retain Ide despite his incompetence so long as his F1 license isn't revoked. This Yamamoto guy is also inexperienced. If he fails, who's next? Keiichi Tsuchiya? Orido? Maybe the car-flipping A1 guy? Aguri will probably go through the list of all Jap drivers before he considers hiring a foreigner.
