[QUOTE="butthead, post: 642012, member: 4408"] personally i think the teams made the wise decision...pulling out seems to gave advantage to certain teams...but would u risk driver injury or even more severely spectator deaths...if this were to happen Michellins would ave everything to be blamed for for not advising the cars to stay out...they could end up in lawsuits...it is US u know... the Michellins could not have raced due to the risk that they had structural damages in their tyres...they had brought the tyres of several teams down to their MIchellin facilities somewhere in the states to do a complete analysis of the tyre...which in the end they found out was not safe to race...they decided not to risk even their second compound and went to advise teams not to take part on race day...the structural damage would have caused high speed collisions to happen on the "brick yard"...remember Ralf last year or the year before...i think he ended up in hospital for crashin into the wall... FIA is not stubborn...and dun start blaming Ferrari or anyone in fact for this chicane matter...i dun think FIA had the time to lay down a chicane as they only got to know the final result yesterday morning i think...Ferrari had their right to disagree to the decisions made by the MIchellin runners...do you think Michellin runners would do the same for bridgestone runners if they were in the reverse positions??? how many percentage of the tyre failure risk would be lowered with jus a chicane built...the tyres got litereally sturture damage with jus a number of laps done...imagine completing a 70+ lap race...doesn't this sound risky where human lives is in involved... although this is the worst scenario...and fans are unhappy...they did not do their fair share of responsibility either...they were throwing beer bottles and cups and anything they could get hold of on the track...at least some teams came out to uphold the honour of the sport...they could have easily jus went into the pits thinking that did not had competitors...but they came out not to left the spectators hanging in the middle...
