[QUOTE="Jules, post: 98627, member: 88"] wah.....brave words you guys. the reality is you need talent, connection and plenty of cash to go far & stay long in F1 or any big league racing. Alex may have some talent, lots of Malaysian connection and also some cash to start his career ( rich grandparents...) and later some good connection to the govt, Magnum to break into F1. F1 is a business, and if you fail to fill the cash register - your driving slot stops. The latest victim is Narain, the Indian F1 driver. Looking at the present A1 chmapionship - Alex is there as one of the shareholders for the Malaysian team, as far as I know. A shareholder tha drives as well, mind u. A1 is no doubt still a business so the above applies, but hopefully less $$$ driven. In terms of driving ability - I can say that there are far worse drivers in the A1 grid than him. I think Fairuz Fauzy ( 2nd son of Mohd Fauzy, owner of MOFAZ, MORAC etc etc ) has also some talent, a lot of MONEY and hence he's there too. He lack experience but is young. Some of you said Alex is overstaying...but if he has the money and not many other hopeful Malaysian drivers can bring the cash, dun you agree it's better he is representing Malaysia. Yes, managing a team is an obvious next step for him but again, it's a money game - no driver with money, who is there to manage. So what's not professional about the whole deal? You have the money, you are in. If you have money and talent, all the better! Bringing in the money takes skills too, if you dun realise that..... I dun know Alex personally but at least he has done more to put Malaysia on the motorsports fratenity than most of us. As matter of fact - I have some Malaysian CHAMPION kart drivers who wants to break into the F1 league eventually. You all want to help? No need go far - pls get them into Formula BMW first. PM me for sponsorship details. So stop talking, bring on the cash... [/QUOTE]
