PLEASE tell me Scotty is taking the piss here !!
Posted: 09 Apr 06 9:20 PM (United Kingdom)

Oh you know when you just read something and its what the f*** !!!!

Well this article on ITV-f1.com just about puts me there..   Dear American rookie Scott Speed ( sorry about this Ian - no offense towards the fact that hes American - cant really when IM half American myself LOL...but this is RULES now)  has said that tension is really high between him and DC after Scott lost 8th place in Australia and had the fine for his behaviour regarding DC...

Scotty has decided that the Stewards went in DC's favuor cos hes experienced....YES HE IS SCOTTY  which is what you WONT be  if you carry on - your days in F1 will be  cut short by several years...UNLESS you  learn by YOUR WON mistakes..

Stewards went in DC's favour  YES...cos he didnt OVERTAKE on waved yellows....waved yellows were right there as DC had to brake so heavily  to avoid Luizzi....going through and overtaking at  speeds like that and not being aware of dangers on a track..i REALLY thought SPeed would of been experienced enough to be aware of all the rules...but obviously now...

DC wouldnt of taken too kindly to being told to f*** off when he had  done NOTHING wrong... Speedy was way to hot headed and yes David would of responded back...but would of only of got defensive in that manner IF provoked...

Torra Rossa should  warn Scotty to  cool it a bit....if he cant stand the heat and be penalised with the 'big boys' then maybe  its just not the right time for him

Speed still seething over penalty

Scott Speed says that tension continues to simmer between him and David Coulthard after their Australian argument.

The American rookie was penalised for passing Coulthard under yellow flags in Melbourne, and then fined for swearing at the Scot during the stewards’ meeting about the incident.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Speed alleges that the confrontation could have escalated had he not restrained himself.

"I used some profanity toward David," Speed told journalists at a news conference.

"In return, he started being a bit physical.

“My mom's raised me to not fight, and therefore a situation didn't arise.

“But it was a very intense situation indeed.''

Speed said he was not yet willing to put the incident behind him.

"I would say the gloves are off,'' he said.

"He was very disrespectful toward me.

“The fact we have the same parent company, Red Bull, and that we're part of the same family means that eventually things will cool down.

“As it is right now, there's certainly a lot of tension between us."

Speed also claimed that the stewards took Coulthard’s side in the dispute because of his seniority and greater experience.

“Who's going to believe what I say? I’m the rookie,” said Speed.

Thanks Amanda.. I know we have been discussing this on the DC forum aswell as I took it onto there also...but I think the team really do need to sort out their driver...and tell him that DC is someone to be respected...there isnt a fairer driver or man on the circuit but DC...

No comment...

I still say the penalty was bullshit and Coulthard did not earn that 8th place. If anyone should have been penalised for passing under yellow it's Half. He passed Heidfeld long after the Safety Car was deployed and gets a podium out of it... nothing. Speed gets by Coulthard at the scene of the crash because DC had to slow down to avoid Liuzzi and Speed didn't, he gets stripped of his first point. Those things happen during crashes!

That being said, Scott Speed really does need to learn when to keep his god damn mouth shut.

That last comment of yours Ian I do have to agree with...Stewards dont take too kindly I think to people airing their views in that sort of way...and the team really need to tell  him just to cool it a little.

HOWEVER going back to the reasons why Scott was penalised...Surely isnt that the most important time NOT to be overtaking someone who is just avoiding an accident of that nature??  If Luizzis car had come back over onto the track again - then Scott would of been in some serious trouble then accident wise..   In line with this comment I cant help but think of the accident in Germany with Tagliani and Zanardi ..Zanardi lost it coming out of the pitlane and spun....Tagliani was going so fast cos ofcourse he was racing... but I hope you can see my point here Ian...we could of so easily had a very similar accident to that... Drivers have to follow by rules and guidelines which are their for THEIR safety and also the safety of the marshalls who do such a great job ( most of the time)
