"Melbourne (GMM) Ferrari broke an F1 test agreement on Tuesday, by amassing more than 50km of 'shakedown' mileage in GP week.
Debuting the new 'F2005' model at freezing Mugello (Italy), Luca Badoer completed 317km -- 267 more than allowed."
Now tell me that ferrari does not CHEAT!!??
ferrari = cheaters = losers!!!
win championships with cheat = to be a f***** loser!!
anybody disagree??

sgd,
I am not taking sides here. My position doesn't allow me but I must point out that as far a I am aware, the 'shakedown' regulation is for cars that will race on the weekend and the F2005 won't be racing this weekend and hence they can test.
Second, Ferrari did not sign the agreement limiting testing during the season. All the other 9 teams did.
Fair or not, that is a matter of opinion and you have certainly expressed yours.

Ok... let see:
I read that here: http://www.f1central.net/news/article/1 ... /view.html
and contacted them (f1central.net) with the next questions:
1.Isn't this the agreement limiting testing that ferrari did no sign for this year?
2.isn't the 'shakedown' regulation for cars that will race on the weekend?
and their answer:

Dear Sgd,
Thankyou for your email.
There has been an agreement for many years that teams would not test, other than shakedowns, in the week leading up to any grand prix. Without consulting the author I assume this is what they were referring to but I can get you more information.
Kind regards,
Webmaster [UpdateSport]

I'll ask for more info...
What do you think?

Ok...
I've requested more info, a soon as they give me something I'll be posting here...
in the other hand, if it's an agreement in doesn't have to be in the 2005 FIA regulations... and FIA wouldn't had to investigate anything, I thought it was an agreement as that they (all-ferrari) signed for limiting testing during this season (which ferreri certainly did not sign), but an old one which ferrari did sign...
anyway.. complains to http://www.f1central.net/ redaction... ...
if they don't give documented argumentation...

Well the 2001 Sporting regulations stated:
TESTING
65) No testing is permitted :
...
b) on any circuit during the seven days preceding and the day following race day at each Event except for a shakedown test not exceeding 50km which must be supervised by the relevant ASN ;...
But from 2002 onwards, that clause is no longer there
And to support this, there was press release by the FIA on October 3, 2001 part of which stated:
FORMULA ONE
2002 SPORTING REGULATIONS
radio signals may now pass bi-directionally between cars and pits;
the FIA will no longer limit the amount of testing teams carry out.
