Ferrari have drawn a line under the flag controversy after the FIA offered them a written explanation. "The request for a clarification from the FIA, regarding Vettel's passing move on Vergne, came about through the need to shed light on the circumstances of the move, which came out on the Internet only a few days after the race," the Scudera said in a statement. "The letter to the FIA was in no way intended to undermine the legality of the race result. "We received tens of thousands of queries relating to this matter from all over the world and it was incumbent on us to take the matter further, asking the Federation to look into an incident that could have cast a shadow over the championship in the eyes of all Formula 1 enthusiasts, not just Ferrari fans. "Ferrari duly takes note of the reply sent by the FIA this morning and therefore considers the matter now closed." http://www.planetf1.com/news/3213/8295335/Ferrari-The-Flag-Matter-Is-Now-Closed case closed vettle is the world champ. so with that goodbye 2012 thread.

Sebastian Vettel will retain his World title after F1 race director Charlie Whiting confirmed his overtake on Jean-Eric Vergne in Brazil was legal. http://www.planetf1.com/news/3213/8294842/Whiting-Vettel-Overtook-Under-Green

flag-gate. that's what sky sports is calling this.

Kamui Kobayashi could be off to Lotus next season replacing Romain Grosjean as the team seeks a more 'stable' driver. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8293781/Kobayashi-linked-to-Grosjean-s-seat F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone: Vettel pass furore a complete joke http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/104650

Formula 1's ruling body, the FIA, says there is "no case" to answer in the controversy involving Sebastian Vettel's overtaking of Jean-Eric Vergne during the Brazilian Grand Prix. It confirmed exclusively to AUTOSPORT that it was in no doubt that Vettel's pass was legitimate. Vettel was crowned champion for the third time at Interlagos after finishing in sixth position in an action-packed race in which he was spun after making contact with Bruno Senna on the opening lap. Ferrari's Fernando Alonso finished in second position, a result that left him three points behind Vettel in the standings. Click here for AUTOSPORT's exclusive analysis of why Vettel's pass was legal On Wednesday evening, however, Ferrari said it was reviewing video footage allegedly showing Vettel overtaking Vergne in a yellow-flag sector between Turns 3 and 4 early in the race. The team stated on Thursday that it had written to the FIA asking for clarification over the matter. FIA sources have confirmed to AUTOSPORT that the yellow-flag sector at Interlagos started at the light panel just before Turn 3, at marshal sector 3, and ends about 150m before Turn 4, where a green light panel is displayed. However, there is a marshal's post in between these two panels and a green flag was being waved there on that lap. Under the FIA's rules for the Brazilian GP, if a green flag is displayed before a green light - as it was in Vettel's case - it is the first green that counts. Therefore, the FIA is in no doubt that Vettel's pass was legitimate, which is why race control was not informed of any potential infringement. The FIA confirmed to AUTOSPORT that no team had asked for a review of the incident. The ruling body also said it does not comment on the stewards' decisions. http://www.autosport...t.php/id/104644 and that's the end of that.

twice the ammo?

Guys, I can be the meat in your sandwich. FYP

this is what the bbc has to say about the matter. Ferrari want to establish whether there is enough evidence to lodge a protest that, if successful, could overturn the result of the Formula 1 world championship. They are "evaluating footage" that appears to show Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel making an illegal overtaking move in Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix. Spain's Fernando Alonso lost the title by three points to his German rival. But Vettel could lose four points if he is deemed to have broken the rules. Formula 1's governing body, the FIA, has so far refused to confirm that it is investigating the incident. There is no word either from Vettel's Red Bull team, who could not be contacted for a comment. Video footage from Vettel's on-board camera appears to show him passing Toro Rosso's Jean-Eric Vergne in a yellow 'caution' zone on lap four of Sunday's race. If that is the case and if any protest is made and upheld, it could result in a retrospective 20-second penalty for the German. That would drop the 25-year-old from sixth to eighth, costing him valuable points and a third successive world title. Alonso, who finished the race at Interlagos in second place behind Jenson Button, would then top the standings by a single point. The 31-year-old Alonso, who was world champion in 2005 and 2006, is believed to be pushing Ferrari to make an official protest to the FIA. However, the governing body does not need Ferrari to act to investigate further. In fact, its own rules appear to oblige it to do so. Article 179b of the international sporting code says: "If, in events forming part of an FIA championship, a new element is discovered, whether or not the stewards of the meeting have already given a ruling, these stewards of the meeting or, failing this, those designated by the FIA must meet… summoning the party or parties concerned to hear any relevant explanations and to judge in the light of the facts and elements brought before them." It adds: "The period during which an appeal in review may be brought expires on 30 November of the year during which the decision that is liable to review has been handed down, if that decision is likely to have an effect on the result of a championship." That appears to give the FIA until Friday to resolve the situation one way or another. Drivers must proceed with caution and overtaking is strictly forbidden in a yellow zone - indicated by yellow flags and flashing trackside yellow lights. If a driver is caught overtaking in a yellow-flag zone, the punishment is either to drive through the pits at restricted speed if the race is still under way, or 20 seconds added to a driver's race time if the incident takes place close to the end of the race or is investigated after the race. The footage in question was not shown on the main global 'world feed' during the race as it was showing repeats of the start at the time. However, it has since been posted on the video-sharing site YouTube. The video is now available to watch on the BBC Sport website and is embedded at the top of this article. The footage shows Vettel passing two flashing yellow lights then overtaking Vergne down the straight, completing the move before reaching a flashing green light, indicating the end of the yellow zone. Rules dictate that the 'yellow' zone ends only when the driver passes the first 'green' indicator. Drivers are alerted to caution zones by an indicator on their car's dashboard display. The yellow flag indicator in Vettel's cockpit is on the whole time. If there is any discrepancy between what is displayed on a driver's dashboard and what is being displayed on the track, then the trackside flags and lights take precedence. It is possible that Vettel thought he was free to overtake Vergne because he saw a marshal waving a green flag at the exit of the pit lane. In other words, before he made his manoeuvre. A green flag is waved by a marshal at that post as Vettel passes the Marussia of Charles Pic on lap three, but it is not clear whether it was still being waved on lap four. Some videos have appeared on the internet that seem to show an official waving a green flag but it is not clear on official television footage. The likelihood of any protest being lodged or of any action being taken depends on whether Ferrari or the FIA can establish whether there was a green flag waving at that marshals' post at that time. If there was, the case will be closed and no further action will be taken. If there was not a green flag, it is highly likely that the case will go before the FIA Court of Appeal. Under a strict interpretation of the rules, the Court of Appeal would seem to have little option in that scenario to impose a penalty. But it may well feel it has to evaluate how much of an effect on the result of the race a drive-through penalty for Vettel at the time would have had. BBC Sport asked the FIA: - If the stewards of the Brazilian Grand Prix had investigated the incident in question during the race. - If there was a green flag waved on lap four at the marshals' post on the inside of the track after the exit of Turn Three. - If the FIA was now investigating the incident. The FIA declined to comment. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/20531638 sky sports video and breakdown of the drama. http://www1.skysports.com/formula1/video/12870/8282348

wow.

i know.................. adzbitch. now go and make me a sammich..

q&a with mark webber. It's been a long year, such a gruelling year, what are your plans now for winter? I understand that you will spend quite a lot of time in Australia like last year, Tasmania Challenge? Yes I’m flying to Australia tonight, I’ve got my Tasmania Challenge which is very important to me for several reasons. Cancer has been pretty tough in my family so I’d like to put something back into the community in Australia. We’ve set up some adventure race where people come and inter and come and do a 5 day healthy day discipline sort of event. Its our biggest year this year we’re having so I’m bloody excited about that. The race starts tomorrow… Relaxing then?! I’ll be doing that. I’ll be on the course on Friday and Saturday having a bit of a look around doing some mountain biking. The water stuff we’re doing is pretty awesome so I want to go and look at that. Tell us about your relationship with Seb, do you guys get on well? We’ve been up and down, probably like any relationship or marriage. Sometimes its great and sometimes you need to work at it a bit more. We obviously have good respect for each other. I think ultimately what’s at stake, its not possible for us to be super close but in general it's good. It's quite funny after India, apparently the German media were picking up on something where we were into each other big time and having huge problems with each other, but I was on Seb’s plane that night together travelling with him. With team-mates it's always a testy relationship where I think you get closer when you stop. Its like with David Coulthard and myself, we were okay as team mates, good respect, but as soon as you stop the guard comes down and you are closer. When you hear about the late nights these guys back in MK put in how much do you appreciate it and how much do you feel it when you’re at the track? You really think about it a lot when you have some success. You don’t think about it when the car stops but you think about it when you have success, when you’re leading the last laps of the GP and it all starts to come to you - the effort that goes to get that car in that position. There are so many micro balances going on, just look at Monaco GP weekend, if you had a fly on the wall on what goes on getting that car in the environment they work in, it's very impressive . Mark, what about your own future. Is the fact that you’re still winning races and still measuring yourself against the best enough to continue? Yes, so long as you still have something to offer yourself, you continue. If I turned up, or any driver turned up, and said well I can’t win the championship, then you would only have two or three drivers on the grid. That’s my goal, to put together a campaign for which I have fought for championships. I have had some good and very special memories in the last two or three years. I’m not at the start of my career I know that, I’m more to the back end of my career, but when you’re no longer performing at your peak, or where your peak was, then you have to be real with yourself and say it’s the right time now to stop, and I don’t think it’s the right time now. If I got spanked 20-0 in qualifying and was literally not on the radar, then yeah, its obvious, but until that point comes and I'm motivated, I'll keep competing. What were the highlights of your season? That would have to be the wins in Silverstone and Monaco. They are two special races. There were ups and downs this season - it was perhaps not as consistent as I would have liked - but there were some strong finishes. I'm now looking forward to a good break and to coming back strong next year. http://www.redbullra...021243289651453

In one of the least surprising moves, Williams have confirmed that Valtteri Bottas will replace Bruno Senna for the 2013 season. http://www.planetf1....-In-At-Williams Kamui Kobayashi has already managed to raise £500,000 through a fundraising website which was set up to help him to secure a race seat. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8292052/Kamui-raises-500-000-through-website

i believe all four wheels have to be across the line by the time the light goes red

Sergio Perez has something to prove and he will try his best to do it imo.

Kamui Kobayashi is so determined to remain in Formula One that he has set up a website which he hopes will help raise funds to keep him on the grid. The 26-year-old, who claimed his maiden F1 podium at his home race at Suzuka this year, has turned to the internet to raise some funds, hoping fans will use www.kamui-support.com to help his cause. Those who make donations will receive special wristbands. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8289316/Kamui-hopes-website-can-save-F1-seat http://www.kamui-support.com/
