I'm sure that £64,000 fine will really hit Ferrari where it hurts.

No, really.

Is there any point in having a rule that says "no team orders" when it's not backed up by a stronger sanction?

I saw that too. I only actually started watching F1 around the time of his last title/Mansell's year, so I didn't get to see a great deal of Senna in a truly competitive car, or really fully appreciate what I was seeing. Some of the footage shown on that Top Gear piece definitely makes me want to see more, I'll be keeping an eye out for that documentary they mentioned.

My grandad got me into F1, he told me how much he loved watching Senna race - the piece on Top Gear was brilliant, I too will be looking for that documentary.

Thought the post-race discussion between Massa and Smedley was quite funny

"Massa the Magnanamous, you probably don't know what that word means so i'll explain it to you later"

I'm sure he did that to his brother as well a few years back. Schumacher has been given a grid slot penalty for the next race at Spa.
