Saturday 27th February 2010, Stefan GP headquarters, Belgrade:
“Stefan GP would like to inform the public that the containers we sent on the beginning of February arrived in Bahrain. During next week we will show our Stefan Formula One car to the press as the final evidence that should put us on the grid in Bahrain.
“In case we don’t receive the chance to compete in Bahrain, and also when some of the teams fail to show up, somebody should have trouble explaining what has happened to all of us.
“And the dreamers from the USA will have to explain their actions, because they are deliberately weakening F1, dreaming about a perfect world and fairytales of success. And success doesn’t come by talking but with hard work and a lot of guts.”
Sunday 28th February 2010, Stefan GP headquarters, Belgrade:
“SGP would like to re-confirm its desire and, importantly, its ability to compete in the whole of the FIA 2010 Formula One World Championship.
“It recognises that this can only happen with the consent of the FIA and the FOM, but has faith that the Formula One ‘family’ will make the correct decision in the end.
“There will be no more press releases on this subject and we look forward to being allowed to show everyone our team in Bahrain.”
Notice how Sunday’s statement is friendly and concilliatory in tone. Notice too that Zoran Stefanovic’s grasp of English improved markedly overnight, almost as if he spoke on Sunday at someone else’s suggestion, someone who wants to get Stefan onto the grid and has English as his native language. Whoever could it B.E?
