The problems in F1 run deep like a cancer and yesterdays race is really only the visible tip of the iceberg that will hopefully bring things to a head. Only a few races back Schumacher had to withdraw from a race because Michelin would not allow Bridgestone any way around a problem they were having.

There is a huge power struggle, which has been going on behind closed doors for a long time, and hopefully yesterday?s farce will bring that into focus. They knew about the problem on Friday and the fact that no one wanted to find a common sense solution is beginning to look like the whole thing was allowed to go the way it did on purpose as the F1 breakaway looks increasingly imminent.

What a pity that so many seemly very clever people couldn?t have got together to rescue a race for so many people who had travelled so far at one of the worlds greatest traditional homes of motorsport.
