FIA
Got a Ferrari?
Not quite good enough at driving?
Are other boys faster than you in the wet?
Then you need:
Ferrari International Assistance (FIA)
This exclusive Ferrari only membership club has many benefits.
Including:
Anti overtaking assurance
Been overtaken? Feel a bit silly? Don't worry, we will rule out the other
party even if it's embarrassingly obvious that they're faster than you
Exclusive access to a secret second lane in the pits
Just to make things a little bit easier we've arranged a private second
lane just for you
Guaranteed world championship?
Had a crash? Need to win the world championship? Don't worry just limp
across the track and take off your nearest championship title contender
- we will do the rest
A bit strapped? Need extra cash?
Simply get one of your team to tell someone else how you make your cars.
Bits falling off your car? Looking a bit dangerous?
At Ferrari International Assistance we operate a blind eye policy just
for Ferrari drivers
Been a bit silly? Taken off another driver whilst following the safety
car?
It's ok, as long as you didn't hurt yourself. I mean, who are Force India
anyway? And how dare they be in front of you
A bit bored? Want some extra action?
With FIA plus you can take part in a number of additional membership
activities
Not sure when you might need us next?
Relax. Check out our track record. We're confident that we will be able
to make something up on the spot that will get you out of any pickle that
you might find yourself in

The worst thing is that apart from the second pit lane it's all true.
I cannot believe that the best sport in the world is being comprehensively bu%%ered by these overpaid fu*kwits.

I think this relates to when it was deemed OK for a ferrari to leave pit space beside a car already leaving the pit and then force its self past the
other car before the pit exit lane on the track. I can't remember which race it was but it rings a bell.
Itis just a shame that it is SOOOOOOOO true.

Oh yeah. Sorry. Valencia. Massa "unsafe release from pits". Fined afterwards but no race penalty. Had it been LH it would have been the
whole, stop and go penalty, 25 seconds onto the race time, a 10 place grid penalty for the next GP and no dinner.

Hey Ho, nice joke, but as a Ferrari Fan, I'll have to correct it a little.
Guaranteed world championship?
Had a crash? Need to win the world championship? Don't worry just limp
across the track and take off your nearest championship title contender
- we will do the rest
If you a refering to 1994, then you will notice that it was actually a Benneton that Schumacher was driving, not a Ferrari
A bit strapped? Need extra cash?
Simply get one of your team to tell someone else how you make your cars.
I'm pretty sure that Ferrari didn't receive any financial benefit for the stepneygate incident (other than being gifted the world
championship that year)
Been a bit silly? Taken off another driver whilst following the safety
car?
It's ok, as long as you didn't hurt yourself. I mean, who are Force India
anyway? And how dare they be in front of you
Again they were NOT running behind the safety car when Kimi ran into Sutil, it occured under racing conditions.
