Does anybody know what that little dance Alsono did when the cars parked at the end of the race for pac ferme (spelling?) ?
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.
That was to shake the crap out of his pants, which came about when Massa sailed across his nose.
Actually, I think it was like a Spanish matador, how he moves to avoid the bull's horns.
Hehe I thought he was quite funny doing that, once on his car and later on the podium again. I started laughing when I saw Schumacher looking strangely to Alonso

Bit disrespectful doing it in the middle of the French national anthem though.
Murphy's 9th Law of Technology:
Tell a man there are 300 million stars in the universe and he'll believe you. Tell him a bench has wet paint on it and he'll have to touch to be sure.
I think it is some kind of inside joke at Renault. Beacuse when he did it on the podium he was smiling and talking to someone (presumably a Renault team member) before and after doing it.
Also I dont think it was TOO disrespectful, after all even Schumi chats to some of the mechanics when he's up there (a smile, a yes or no, thumbs up etc.) There's not much difference.
Silence is golden when you don't know a good answer.
I dont think its that disrespectful to the anthem.. remeber shumacher with the italian anthem.. after a while the media made him stop..
maybe if alonso keeps this up.. the french media will start complaining
