ROUND FIVE

Round Five - Submitted Entries

Ferrari's attempts to make overtaking easier backfire.

Ferrari exploring new alternatives after dismissed proposal to align a third car in the championship.

In the interview Alonso explains how his comments to Stefano Domenicali that 'I want a car that handles like a roller-coaster by the fifth race' got lost in translation.​

In an informal statement today Alonso said "I would like to extinguish any rumours that I was taking any of the Ferrari team for a ride". ​

"Look, guys, I know you said that the entire chassis needed a redesign for the cheater aero like McLaren, but this new version is completely F-duct."

So Fernando, how many Ferrari marksmen did it take to puncture Lewis's tyre??

Alonso: *Force Push*

Felipe: "Can I go with you guys?"

Fernando: "Sorry Felipe, there's a minimum height requirement."

Domenicali: "Yeah, go get me some popcorn."

Domenicali: I don't remember anything in your contract about us having to build you a rollercoaster?

Alonso: Rollercoaster? No, no, no. As you can see, this will fit 4 people per car, and we can have up to 6 cars on the track at any one time. Also, the track can be reconfigured to simulate any current or past Formula 1 track. So this is actually a training aid, not a rollercoaster, and Section 4, paragraph 3 of my contract says that all training aids shall be paid for by the team.

Domenicali: Hmmm... ok, but only if I get to ride in front next time.

When quizzed by the press after the ride, a queezy Stefano Domenicali didn't elaborate on what he thought of the roller coaster, but Fernando was very impressed, giving it the full 'five vomits.'​

Ferrari debuts their newest grip enhancing innovation, Up-stop wheels.​

"Don't ride this thing. The coaster gets stuck right after Rascasse."

Alonso: "Five times he was sick down my back. FIVE times!"​

Stefano Domenicalli: "Rob Smedley does so much for the driving for Felipe that we thought we'd keep that in mind when we introduced the next upgrade."

The mid-season aero package caught the paddock by surprise. Nobody expected Ferrari to opt for the two-seat approach, either. However, Fernando does report that it handles like it's on rails.

Fernando: No no no no Felipe, the front seat is for world champions only, you can't sit up here.

Stefano: You can come and sit on my lap Felipe baby!

So it seems Ferrari failed to consider the risk of decapitation from low lying beams when designing their car. Barcelona could be their Final Destination.

They finaly made it back after the engine failed at the top of the loop AGAIN.

While Fernando confidently predicts how many races he and Felipe will win this season, Stefano seems to think that all of the Ferrari team have been taken for a ride

Alonso points out that he got to fifth gear, while Domenicali sits there wishing that Schumacher was testing the roller coaster instead!!

Alonso: "Go away Lewis! I know this thing has 2 front seats and corners like it's on rails, but I've already got a bossy backseat driver and that's more than enough for now!"​

Fernando: "That's the third time the Ferrari rollercoaster has stopped today."
Stefano: "Just think yourself lucky that you did not decide to ride on the Sauber rollercoaster. Their front wing fell off again and landed in a local Burger King store."

Alonso reaches for the edge of the car to throw up.
Apparently even F1 drivers can get sick on a roller coaster.

ALONSO: Pardon me...would you happen to have any..."Grrreeeeeey Poupan"??
