Maranello, 16th June

Our website is receiving more and more emails from al over the world supporting the position of Ferrari and FOTA as far as Formula 1’s future is concerned.

In the Forums and the mailboxes of www.Ferrari.com numerous messages arrive to support our position about the future of Formula One.

Via the internet our fans let us know that they “don’t want Formula 1 turned into a go-kart series,” and that “without the big manufacturers Formula 1 will not exist.” Other again ask us to forward their emails to the FIA to underline the fans’ support for a Formula 1 the FOTA wants and numerous emails are directed directly to the Ferrari Chairman telling him not to give up.



Here are some examples:

Hi
I find it distressing that the F1 bosses want to turn the Formula cars into go karts.
Keep the fight, the majority of F1 fans want to see the best developed cars and the cutting edge of technology.
Bernie and Max seem to forget that aspect of racing
Good luck in the fight.

Oggetto: You Have My Support

Please convey to your Chairman my whole-heated support for the actions he has taken in conjunction with FOTA. I just read his latest statement reaffirming his commitment to either getting the FIA rules and rule making processes under control or Ferrari (and the other FOTA teams) will not participate in the 2010 FIA F1 Championship. I believe in his position and hope he continues to do what's best for the sport.

drear sir or madam
Could you please pass this e-mail on my behalf to FIA. They do not disclose email that could be used by f1 fans to contacted them.

Dear Sir or Madam
First of all I would like to say, I have been an avid F1 follower for the last 10 years. Since I hearing about the intruduction of 40m budget cap and they way it was pushed into F1 mad me very angry with FIA and I felt need to write this email the make my views heard as F1 fan . I feel and many F1 follower agree with me this is not the way to go.

IF for the next season teams like Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes and Toyota will not take part because of FIA childish behaviour to introduce 40m budget cap. Formula one will lose me as its follower and many like me. F1 with out big teams is nothing it will be just like Formula 3000, GP2 Series or Formula Two second rate.

I am sure this is not the first and not the last angry email that you will receive from fan about that stupid budget cap that you FIA want to introduce.
