We enter the final 2007 f1VWC weekend here at Brazil and it seems Vod:Bul has gone all out for the event, all the motor home are here and a huge structure is being erected, rumours of a band after the race are spreading and some members already seems in the party mood, Vod:Bul's sponsor Red Bull supplying the drinks, with the alcohol coming out after the GP. Javier Aparicio seems to have found his spot for the weekend, at the bar with e TV nearby.
With all the fuss surrounding the loan of Laurent Keersmaekers this weekend, Mike Pitman Vod:Bul Manager issued a statement.
?I am surprised that there is such negative feedback to this loan, I expected a few surprised looks form those who had not herd the rumours but nothing to the level that has happened this weekend. This deal has been talked about for a while and all three admins were informed before and asked if it was ok, we got the all clear, both managers and driver are in agreement, this is no different to any other loan.
Nobody complained when I loaned in Adam Rouse at Japan, which by the way I thank Adam and BB for making that possible, good luck to them this weekend. This loan is no different I needed a driver I loaned the best available to me.
Many things have been said about me and my team; I have been criticised for not making fiends and being in the sprit of the league, but in fact this deal shows the exact opposite, I have made friends and that's why we see the Keersmaekers, Javier and all the Simsoa lads here today.
There have been claims against competition and only looking at ourselves, but the people who have been more outspoken about this deal are the ones who feel they may lose out because of it, so also looking out just for their team, same as me. F1 is a sport and thus a competition at the end of the day.
One of the more outspoken people on the subject is Mr Woods, who himself says he is annoyed because he wanted to beat us in the constructors. Nobody has stopped you doing this, now it is just fair as we can both run two cars each. I hope we can have a good competition. I was surprised at Mr Woods outspoken manner when I believe he did the exact same thing a few season ago last time Woods racing was in f1vwc, he loaned Mr Williams in to the team who was arguably one of the best Gp4 drivers around at the time to win the last two GP's for him. Talk of hypocritical
I am happy to talk to anyone who wants to actually talk rationally about any concerns they may have as this whole atmosphere is not the spirit the league should be in at the last GP of the season, come on all lets go racing and embrace competition like men!
We would also like to give a special thanks to Andy Graydon on his commitment and judgement what has been so clear throughout his time as Admin at F1vwc, we are sad to see him step down from this post. Also a Congrats are in order for reaching his 50GP starts this weekend, a tough task indeed and we hope he gets a good result to cap it off. We hope Andy and any other league members who are in the spirit fancy coming down to the VB party and having a few drinks on us, all welcome.?
