I can't be 100% certain, I think he was referring to new personnel rather than a reshuffle.

As I've indicated a while ago, the fear culture is likely to go away with the alleged restructuring I've been told about - http://www.jamesallenonf1.com/2014/05/f ... in-target/

Newey remains a target.

Is Alonso's eye closed with some kind of tape to prevent motion sickness in simulator?

You know, I didn't get that with over 20 laps remaining in Sundays race and with the GAP to the car behind Alonzo approaching 30 seconds that they didn't pit to put on supersofts. It appeared that Alonzo was having problems getting heat into the softs or was nursing another issue. Well if he was nursing another issue, that would make sense that they didn't pit.

Only right hand side brakes were working on his car. No kidding.

Tape to cover any light from interfering with his vision.
When the simulator is on, the entire room is dark and so any light from the giant screen would affect him.

Sigh.

If they sack Kimi again, Ferrari deserve to never win ever again. How can they expect to do anything if they keep making dumb changes every year? Their only consistency would be failure.


I do notice that the media hates Kimi though. They might be just spreading rumors, hoping they come true. Must be because Kimi hates answering their stupid questions. I read both comments from Kimi and Alonso after FP and they both said they liked and disliked parts of the new Canada updates, but of course Alonso's headline is that he is happy with the upgrades and Kimi's headline is that he does not like the car still..... #-o


Update: Rumor proven false. Silly people want to stir up drama!

No no no.

That is at the Shell press event this week where Kimi put on an Oculus Rift (Virtual Reality headset) that showed him (and everyone else there) how a fuel of Shell's fuel travels through a V6 race engine.
