After the other weeks Formula 1 incident involving Ferrari, Im left wondering why yet another team (Aprilia) thinks it acceptable to issue team orders to its riders mid-race ? Camier fought his way through the grid from 16th and deserved his position, then Aprilia signal for him to switch with Biaggi..and at his home round too !! Biaggi has a big points lead on Haslam in the standings so there was no need really. Obviously there is no ruling against this in WSB as Aprilia have openly admitted their instructions. Whilst not technically illegal it doesnt make for good sportsmanship or viewing as I was in the stands when Biaggi got booed on his warm down lap. So come on race teams, lets not turn WSB into a farce like F1 is at times.

It's been going on for years.   Look at it the other way, from the manufacturers point of view. Haga possibly lost the championship last year when Fabrizio took points off him. Beating your team mate is less important than making sure your team wins.
