And when the Check ered Flag Falls it will end another year of a a warfare Between the brazilian Ayrton Senna and the Frenchman Alain Prost. Everyone thought their feud had finally ended when they Shook hands and buried the Hatchet after the italian grand prix in september. But then came. The japanese grand prix where Senna zapped Prost from behind in the first turn of the first Lap and their animosity was ignited once again. Prost is reportedly planning to retire from grand prix racing unless some rules Are instituted to Stop what he Calls dangerous driving meaning Senna a obviously. And his Ferrari team has also threatened to quit grand prix racing if the federation do sport automobile Fis governing body of motor sport does no to take action to Stop such incidents As occurred in the japanese race. On the a Mclaren Honda front a however All has remained a a Senna who clinched the 1990 title immediately after the japanese Accident is rightfully in the frying pan for his tactics and there doubtlessly will be some major actions taken in this Case. This was strongly hinted by Jean Marie Balestre the head of fisa who said a it was a very very dirty overtaking move. The whole world was witness and judge and there can Only be one Senna has few defenders in this specific incident primarily because fair play should have been involved and Senna Wasny to playing fair. Racing is a dangerous game and it needs All the fair play it can get. Nelson Piquet of Brazil a three time world Champion who won the japanese grand prix in his Benet ton Ford was quoted As saying after the race that a Senna just drove straight into the Back of Prost and that was photographers and officials on the first turn have supported Piquet a judgment All agreeing that it was Proste a Corner and that Senna simply drove into the Back of him. And the millions of racing fans who saw the incident on television would also support that View As Fisar a Balestre has noted. One can Only say that Senna Mclaren Honda and their Marlboro sponsors won no new fans that Day. And they lost the support of a lot of old ones. Although the championship has been settled the australian grand prix will prove interesting in Light of what it will offer after the japanese up shambles. Some new rulings will emerge after the australian finale and it will also be interesting to see what action fisa takes. A full but recorded version of the australian grand prix will be shown sunday on German televisions first program Ard beginning at 8 ., while the Ayrton Senna. A fall quiet Alain Prost demands rules satellite television station eur sport will show the race live sunday beginning at 4 30 And then repeating it at the much More civilized hour of 1 30 a a speaking of fisa and its Boss Balestre a Battle of major proportions is once again shaping up Between fisa and the american championship Auto racing teams cart organization. Meeting at its Paris Headquarters recently fisa barred cart from running races in countries other than the United states and Canada. The dispute grew from carts plans to stage an Oval track race in Australia this one set for March 17 at the surfers Paradise circuit near Brisbane Queensland. If it comes off the race will be the opener in carts 16-race series for 1991. But As we noted in a sept. 5 column the Outlook for carts opener is not exactly Rosy. Fisa says a cart race in Australia or anywhere else except the . And Canada would be a violation of its International sporting Laws and fisa has asked the various National sporting authorities not to Sanction cart races. The International fisa federation says cart races outside the United states Are considered part of an International championship that it does not recognize. And Fisar a Balestre has said repeatedly that it is illegal for a Domestic racing organization such As cart to race anywhere outside its own and neighbouring a a at the moment the cart organization plans to go ahead with the australian race even though fisa has threatened an International life time ban on All Drivers teams and officials who would take part in it. In other words if Michael Andretti would compete in the australian cart opener aboard a Lola Chev Rolet he would be banned from Ever participating in an International formula one grand prix or any other fisa sanctioned event for that matter. The same would apply to Lola racing cars and Chevrolet engines. This ploy has worked in the past As fisa forced cancellation of a cart event in Japan last year with similar threats. While cart the australian organizers and race sponsors still for the surfers Paradise race to take place the australian motor sports confederation has announced that it supports fisa in this matter. It really has no Choice because australians relationship with International motor sport is based on adherence to fisa requirements. The confederation rightly Points out that the australian grand prix world championship rally and its other International events Are under threat if the cart race is a a in announcing its opposition to the australian race fisa also revealed a startling plan to conduct a new world championship starting in 1992. This championship would include five to seven Oval track races with one or two races in the United states one or two in Japan one or two in Europe and one in Australia. This series was proposed by Anton George the president of the Indianapolis motor Speedway corporation which hosts the Indianapolis 500. The Indianapolis 500-mile race itself is organized and directed by the . Auto club Sac not cart and the indy 500 has always had Fisar a endorsement. While Fisar a idea of an indy world championship series sounds rather far out there Are no Oval tracks in Europe for instance its an interesting proposal and one that could materialize. What began As a fisa cart Battle is rapidly moving toward War one that also involves big Money in the advertising and to markets. And in this War fisa is holding All of the Best a a where to go this weekend the world famous London to Brighton commemoration run will be staged sunday with some 300 Veteran cars from Europe and the United states entered.
