Rivals refuse to criticise Ferrari tactics
Ferrari's main rivals say they have little problem with the team's decision to give Felipe Massa a deliberate gearbox penalty at Austin to help Fernando Alonso's Formula 1 title challenge. The Maranello-based outfit was concerned about having Alonso start on the dirty side of the grid for the United States Grand Prix, so tactically broke a seal on Massa's gearbox to give him a five-place grid penalty. That moved Alonso onto the clean side of the track, which team insiders believe was completely the right choice because of the way in which he was able to move up from seventh at the start to fourth by the exit of the first corner.
