Or what?

Jacques Villeneuve will lose 10 places on Sunday’s Spanish Formula 1 GP grid because of an engine change to his BMW Sauber. The question is why?

Team principal Mario Theissen, in Spain on Thursday, said: “Last Sunday night at the Nuerburgring, when the engine was prepared for transportation, it was probably damaged.” “It wasn’t dropped but I won’t tell you what happened because I’d have to blame a team member. It was probably damaged and due to regulations we couldn’t do anything to it.

Quick, someone check the BMW Sauber team roster. Bet it is short one “engine transportation expert.”

I also would lay odds that Giancarlo Fisichella is having a mighty good laugh at JV’s expense after last weeks qualifying controversy.
