Post here all non technical related topics about Formula One. This includes race results, discussions, testing analysis etc. TV coverage and other personal questions should be in Off topic chat.
Now you are only hating on Piquet, please dont tell me only the Piquets are wrong, Briatore and Symonds are lying like hell, they ever told the truth?
The last person i trust on the whole grid who says something is Briatore, he can talk bullshit like, damn, really cant think anything up there.
Anyway, my point is they are all lying here, and who's the big loser after the whole story? Piquet himself, Who wants a driver who talks --- about the team when he gets sacked? This whole story only tells Piquet has its own mind, he made his own choises(although, his dad did most of them), and if it was the right one or the wrong one, just accept it, and dont take it out of the garbage because you are sacked for being to slow, that is just sad and shows the weakness of piquet, he is spoiled.

Whether or not the Piquets are telling the truth is immaterial to the facts in this case.
Nelson Piquet was a d**k long before Singaporegate started.
Cant disagree with that, he made all of it by himself, all of this wouldnt have happened if Piquet drove better, but simply he starts crying at his dad that briatore is bullying him, he says he dont get the same parts, well im sure Grosjean has the same conditions as Puquet, Grosjean now already shows he is much faster then piquet, add to that that piquet did like 3 or 4 years of testing, grosjean did a few 100s of kilometers max, so when piquet did his first race he was far more expierienced then grosjean, who beats him in pace.
Regardless of who's a dick, who's lying/not lying, who knew what they were planning, what the plan was etc., Nelson Piquet Junior chose to crash his car intentonally, and has absolutely ZERO integrity and should be banned from every FIA sanctioned event for the rest of his life. If that is in fact the truth of course, we don't know for sure. But if a driver has admitted he was told to crash his car and rather than being a human being with some decency and integrity to stand up say no and do the right thing without care to his career, he is not to be trusted and should never compete again in Formula 1. What's next? Hitting crew members in the pit lane to stop another driver from beating him in a stop? He obviously has no problem with causing an accident on track so what's to say he won't in the pit lane. I have zero respect for him, and his father. Who cares if the team asked him to? If they told him to hold a gun to his head and kill himself should he listen? Should he jump off a bridge if told to do so? F*ck Piquet. I hope the little --- never gets a ride for the rest of his life.

Missed that part did you?
And Piquet has admitted to it. TimesOnline Juniors statement
So if he's admitted to it, he's guilty. At the time I posted that I don't believe he had actually admitted it, and we had no true evidence that he had. Try some objective reasoning next time.
I love Flav's stupid analogy about robbing banks, which he spouted off at Monza. And yes, Flav, if the person you told to rob a bank is on your payroll, then yes you're responsible. DUH????!!!! At least that's the way it works in the states.
Flav had a senior moment in that one!

I think the problem here is what my parents used to tell me. If they go jump off a bridge are you? Of course not. Yes they shouldn't have told him to crash intentionally, but for him to actually go out and do it is entirely on him. He should have had the integrity to stand up and tell Flavio to f*ck off. He didn't do that, and now his career is in worse shape if he had simply refused. I would rather be unemployed than be pressured into doing something like that. And I have stood in the face of authority in the Marine Corps for not doing something that was against the rules. I almost got court martialed for disobeying an officer over not skipping a requirement to inspect the oxygen system that had grounded every F-18 in the Navy and Marine Corps. I assure you I wasn't getting paid what Junior was either. Integrity is worth more than anyones career.
