A letter to Ferrari

Dear Ferrari.

Ferrari this is no Dear John letter. That I promise you.
Call this a look into your future.

See many years ago. You were a top team. A great team. With the best driver and championships at your feet.
I never loved you, but secretly I always admired you and passion for being the best. Wanting to be the best.
Skip forward a few years and something has changed.
That something was that you decided not to grow up.

However your fans and followers have grown up. A lot.
We now carry smart phones, use twitter to communicate with Formula One drivers and we understand that the press. Although can be intruding, are an important part of F1 has a business.

Lately though you just seem to be having Kevin and Perry style tantrums about everything and anything lately and quite frankly it's starting to get a bit dull.

Especially this week.
When you acted up big time.

So when the internet passed rumours that Felipe Massa has/was being sacked. You decided instead of manning up and dealing with the problem head on.
You know a good old fashion press release or a quick press conference.
You thought that at the test at Barcelona, you would ban Felipe and Fernando from talking to the press. Especially the Spanish and Brazilian press.
Thus causing more of stir then if you dealt with the problem head on.

Sadly though I believed you wanted that to happen.
By not letting the drivers have a voice, you created a media storm. Thus insuring more press coverage at the test weekend then if you actually topped the time sheets.
Which you haven't done in a long time.

One day though I hope you can grow up, invest in a decent PR manager and start letting your drivers have a voice.
And finally focusing on the car again.
Becoming the team I remember so well in the noughties.
Becoming amazing.

Signed secretly.
Female Formula Fun.

Retro F1 Fitty of the Week. Ayrton Senna.

Now after months and months of speculation. (By no-one)
I have finally decided what to do about F1 fitty of the week, since I can't do any more current ones.

So I have decided instead to do a retro F1 fitty of the week.
The best thing about it. All the choices won't be mine. (Hoorah)

I will also be spreading it to other female members of the F1 community.
So if your interested in sharing a few words about who you think should be a retro F1 fitty of the week then contact me on twitter @squiffany or you can email me at squiffany87@gmail.com

So back to this week's retro F1 fitty and I'm going to start retro F1 fitty with a link to my last current F1 fitty. (Which if you missed you can see here.)

The link is quite simply family.

So this week's retro fitty of the week is Ayrton Senna.


Now like I have said in previous posts, I'm not into the tall, dark and handsome stereotype but has we know with Ayrton.
He was more then that.

His eyes told more of a story then any book.

Not only that but he had a voice that could melt butter.
*Shivers*


But even better then Ayrton's looks or voice.
Was two things: His intelligence and his driving ability.
Ayrton had both of these in spades.

This made him the most rarest of drivers and the most alluring.
A beautiful man who had a lot left to give.

A beautiful man that will live on in Formula One forever.

F1 fitty of the week.

Well this will be my last current F1 fitty of the week.
However don't fear a new feature will be coming up in the next couple of weeks.
Fitty related of course.
So keep your peepers out.

So back to this weeks current fitty.
Now due to a driver line up change mid season.
I can now include this F1 hottie.

So say hello to Bruno Senna.























What to say about Bruno Senna (apart from the obvious relation...ah just mentioned it. Damn)

This beautiful Brazilian is dark haired, dark eyed and bloody gorgeous.
Whilst we haven't seen a lot from Bruno driving wise.
Poor cars and mid season starts haven't helped this and hopefully has time goes on that will change.

Like most F1 drivers, Bruno is not just a pretty face.
He's a dark horse talent wise.
He admits on his website that he is a bit of a gamer.
(To be honest I do love a geeky gamer.)

Bruno also defies the stereotype that men can't multi task.
Just check out this gaming video.

The boy has skillz (Yes the Z makes it more ghetto)

So pretty, cool and a bit geeky.
An F1 fitty combo that to me.
That's just a little bit winning.
