This is one of those moments when you need to apply a bit of perspective and calm appraisal, rather than run screaming. This is going to be one of those weekends, where the buzz is constant and the drama level high. The strange statement on the Ferrari website denigrating the teams hoping to enter F1 seems to have garnered the most reaction, certainly a lot of the media are focussed on it. But in the wider sphere, the reaction has been interesting to the news from Paris that Ferraris injunction has failed.

While continuing to evaluate whether or not to extend with this legal action already underway, Ferrari confirms its commitment to work within FOTA in conjunction with the FIA and the Commercial Rights Holder to ensure that Formula 1 is a series where the rules are the same for everyone and which benefits from stability in the regulations, while continuing the work of the past few months in moving forward methodically and gradually towards reducing costs, their statement this afternoon says.

Weve had some great inputs on this site this afternoon about both the Paris news and the Ferrari website posting, many of which reflect the perspective that members of the public are able to bring, to a greater extent readily perhaps than Virtual F1 insiders. Ive picked out three reactions from inside F1 to consider tonight, the first, inevitably, is Ferraris own reaction to the news that their injunction has failed.
