Comment of the day
Mantresx picked up on an interesting claim form Ferrari yesterday's round-up:
From the Ferrari article:
'By the time he had signed for McLaren, Mexico's Sergio Perez had already left the Academy.'
I don't believe that, at the time it was never mentioned he had 'left' the Academy before signing and actually I remember Baldisserri saying that he was too aggressive, blah blah blah, so he must've been involved one way or another at the time.
