The internecine war has turned out to be more entertaining than the actual racing.

Yep, this is a culebrón. I hope most can understand this word; for those who cannot, a culebrón is an endless series of ridiculous quarrels were not for the money involved. Sort of that "Dallas" series which ended being filmed in the USSR or in Russia, I cannot remember anymore.
 
Waiting for Ferrari's decision. Could them make up a solid scape to continue in F1 with honnor? I read something on it last weekend. But, sincerely, I did not pay much attention to it. Looked like smoke made to distract all and everyone.
 
Regards,
Jose

If nothing else, we're expanding our vocabulary.
 
Culebrón? Can you make mine a double?

Iced culebrón… by now.
 
Ferrari returns to the fold — as all other teams, FOTA announced today — by signing the agreement to keep racing next year in F1.

Time ago it was published that an eccentric millionaire had bought one of the firstly-released Ferrari F40 (a total of 1315 items at US$ 400,000 each were produced along 1987-1992)… to left it as a sculpture master piece laying in their Manhattan apartment.

Swords are high between FIA (Max Mosley) and FOTA (teams), with FOM (Bernie Ecclestone) as an interested witness.
 
Only two teams have conditionally signed to participate in next year F1 FIA championship. The remaining teams are talking to each other in order to organize their own segregated championship. A number of circuits (Monaco, Indianapolis, Silverstone, Mugello, Magny Cours) and pilots (inclusive of Massa and Alonso) have declared they will be in FOTA championship if it is eventually organized. Teams say they want to be out of the so called "British (Bernie Ecclestone but specially Max Mosley) dictatorship".
 
Recent news: Pilots have had a meeting this morning and the conclusion in Marc Gené (Ferrari 3rd. pilot) words was "we wish an agreement between FIA and FOTA, but if there is not such, we will look forward for the FOTA championship; we support teams in this crossroad." Next week may be the end of the culebrón.

24 Hours du Mans finished this year with a Peugeot instead of an Audi winner:
 
#9 Peugeot 908 Hdi / Marc Gené
 
Marc Gené (Spain) is currently 3rd. pilot of F1 Ferrari racing team. #9 two other pilots were D. Brabham (GB) and A Wurz (Austria).
 
Corvette Racing (USA; J. O'Connell (USA); J. Magnussen (DNK); A. García (SPA)) was first in LMGT1 class (15th altogether).
