Default Ron Dennis remark on Kubica

When ask by Peter Winsor if he would like his drivers to lose weight like Kubica he said "If he got his nose fixed he could have dropped a lot of weight"

Seem very childish and Winsor was stunned. He should be more worried where his wife is!

Why do so many of the F1 people seem rude? What is the story on RD's wife?

The F1 community is a very "tight" (say insestuous) little community. In the 1980s, several drivers (I think Rene Arnoux and Prost??) swapped wives and families. Who can forget the comment to Pete Aarons In "Grand Prix: "What am I supposed to do....hit him with my crutch", when caught in the act by the cuckholded husband.

I resemble that remark about the nose

ron dunce should worry more about his drivers being injured by wheels that fall apart in the search for unsprung weight.

As for his comment, it was typical elite Euro remark made by the guy who probably paid the hookers to film Max Mosley.

So be it. kubica out ran the Mclaren one race ago, nose and all.
