I guess Barrichello shouldn't have botched the start.

OMG!! What a shocker!! Probably makes sense, but F1 is completely whacked!! Won't it be a blow to Button if he get's the boot?

Wait'll you see the press conference, it will blow your mind.

In the article Jensen was obviously pissed.

Check the date on that press release. I expect a revision tomorrow, because this reeks of a prank.

Just remember what day this article was published.

April 1st, otherwise known as April Fool's Day

Yea... I thought April Fools...

Surprisingly thorough article though..

The article said: In a surprise statement issued shortly after midnight on this date

Is there any doubt that this is a joke?

Did ya watch the video press conference?

Nope:

but it has been reported that a portion of the money previously tagged for F1 will now be used to purchase a fleet of small fishing vessels off the coast of Newfoundland.
