Fisichella's response to bern

[Dare]

From Giancarlo's website

Dear Bernie,

I read with interest your interview in Auto Moto und Sport, faithfully published by your own web site. You are the father of Formula One and like a father you have talked about your children, including me. I wanted to remind you dear daddy, I mean dear Bernie, that I am the one who won the first Grand Prix in Melbourne in 2005 with Renault and therefore I was the one who first discovered the R25 as a winning car. In the two seasons I spent alongside Alonso, in full agreement with the strategies of my Team, I have contributed to two constructor titles, taking home the fourth place in the drivers’championship, just like Massa this year. Given the circumstances I believe I could not do any better. In 2007 Renault promised me a championship winning car, but this has not been the case and for this I did not get demoralized! Next week, in fact, I will bring my enthusiasm and my experience to Force India, a young team with an “old heart” just like Giancarlo Fisichella who has still some talent to show!

Giancarlo Fisichella.

Nice to see someone responding to the provocative statements of the powers-that-be with some humour. Surely this has to be up there with Damon Hill's response to Mosley's attack on Stewart for best-written defence of the year.

If that doesn't land Fisi a job at McLaren, nothing will!

Everone writes Fisichella as a so so driver.He was
offered the Renault drive after 2 years at Jordon
and one at Sauber.He won Ford's last GP in a
weakly Jordon,with a lot of luck I'll admit.It just
pisses me off to see someone who played by the
rules[team]be treated so poorly by Flavio and
company.I only hope Renault gets whats coming
to them in their spy saga
