Williams has always been cranky. They did not let Nico Rosberg to PR for Mercedes till the last day of his contract, whereas Barichello was doing PR for Williams even before his contract with BrawnGP ended.

This team has an history but i dont understand why they are not able to perform for a long long time....

Tough Indian government! hehe! 🙂 I kinda like this! 😀

Jaypee Sports India (JPSI) has got lot of headaches ...... Things will be sorted out if they bribe the right person at right time....

Anna should keep an eye on this event...

williams were doing fine when they were with BMW right? once bmw went out, they had to rely on outsourced engines. and it is very hard to win with outsourced engines and lack of solid financial backing. all the top teams have solid financial backing... red bull, ferrari, mclaren, mercedes, even force india!

I was not aware of it...but just checked the data on williams performance with BMW it was really good...

In the latter part of last decade they went with Toyota ..they were doing bit ok with them too....but with cosworth its pathetic...

those were the days when montoya was what hamilton and alonso are for me today. annoying SoBs. 😀

 

[ajuravi007]

Its good that he left F1...I was hating Hamilton a lot couple of years back but now softening towards him...I hated Alonso when he won 2006 WC because he defeated schumi in WDC....then hated him when he was with McLAren....but once he left McLaren i started to like him....For the past 2 season Vettel is dominating, even though ferrari lost WDC last year to vettel....This year again RBR and Vettel are dominating but some how i am not hating that team or vettel .....it was not the case with McLAren....

Not under threat anymore Government exempts Indian GP from paying huge taxes

 

[Sushubh]

yet another scam was born today.

 

[ajuravi007]

Dont know when this would come out...I wonder which minister got the bribe and what would have been the bribe amount ...I hope 1 days F1 becomes a national sport for India....too many indian drivers people like schumi , alonso or vettel or hamilton finding it difficult to get a race seat in F1.....

F1 is very very expensive sport, you cant make it national sport.

 

[abchopra2010]

Kha gaye paise! 😀

 

[amish]

I am ok as long as government waives tax on bringing the equipments etc and taking them back as long as they dont sell anything.

But any profit they earn from India shud be taxed

As per that news report, it seems that this WHOLE EVENT is made tax free!!

So can someone shed light?

The government on Wednesday exempted the Indian Grand Prix Formula One race organisers from paying any taxes or custom duties
