Aussie V8 driver Russell Ingall has launched a stinging attack on Formula One after the weekend Ferrari farce
Veteran Aussie V8 driver Russell Ingall has launched a stinging attack on Formula One.
Renowned for speaking his mind, Ingall believes the sport has zero credibility after Ferrari ordered Felipe Massa to slow down and lets team mate Fernando Alonso pass and win the German Grand Prix.
Ingall said if he had been given the request, he would have unplugged his radio, and flipped team management the bird as he passed the pit lane.
He said he has turned off his radio on plenty of occasions and the one finger salute would have been a perfect show of disdain from a Formula One car.
Ingall said if he wanted to see a manufactured result in sport, he would have watched Pro Wrestling.
Ferrari are set to face further sanctions front the World Motorsport Council for breaking the rules around team orders.
