Ferrari Mailing List: Re: A slap on the wrist to Renault

[LarryT (l02turner]

Piquet's characterization of Briatore is pretty severe - but I guess that's 
one of those businesses where nice guys finish last.    While there were 
pretty severe penalties I'd have liked to see a fine also.

But they didn't ask me - as usual.  I don't know what's wrong with those 
guys - I'd be happy to solve all of their problems.  ;-)
