Death, Happiness, new rules, red car and hard rock music, that's just some of the subjects that were addressed on today's Press Conference on Sebring Raceway. Be sure to read it all about it, below :

PRESS CONFERENCE

(Jo Ramirez - The FD Times) Tib, two double wins for each of you title contenders. Can you finish this round leading the stands?
Tib : I really don't know. I'm coming cold to this track, since testing was banned for this season, the new tracks are kinda of a blur for us. But yeah, since i don't know the track, that means that Shaka also doesn't know the track, and with his ballast, i think i might have a shot.

(unknown guy at the back of the room) Talking about 'shot', what do you drivers know about the guy who was shot dead by someone linked to that Red Car?
Tib : The same as you do, what we are told and read about in the news. A death like this is awful, and my thoughts are with the family of the deceased. Hopefully the stewards and the police will get the people behind it, and held it responsable, but that is a case for the law, not for us.

(Jean Toddy - Firenze Team) The Firenze Team wants you. Join?
Tib : No thanks,i am happy at Libra, and these guys are supporting me from the beginning. press B

(Frodo - The Shrine Express) Being the team sole driver is such a burden. Do you think about sharing this responsibility with someone, like having a teammate on a 2 car Scuderia Libra lineup?
Tib: That's a question more suited for the management of the team. I don't mind having a teammate, but i don't think being the team sole drive is a burden, at least not when you can keep the car in one piece. Having a teammate, can drive your focus away from racing, and that's something that can harm you in the long run. So, to sum it up, i don't know. But i don't think the team plans on having a 2 car operation this season.

(Frodo) We tried to talk to your team manager, but all we got was a humpf humpf shoosh messatsu and a few moments later he wasn't there and I had a pain in the head..
Tib: He is from Japan, that's how things are, over there, but if you hear something that goes like "lp, lp, ->, lk, hp" all i can say, maxwell jump..

(EVH) JUMP!
Tib: m/ duh, duh, duh, duh duh duh, duh, duh duh, duh, duuuuh

(ts ts dum dum)

(Ed Mort - O Bobo) - Shaka, coming down to Sebring, again in the points leadership. What are your plans for tonight's race ? Racing for points, or are you going in for broke ?
Shaka : I always go for broke, that's why I lost both races at Castle Combe. I was 1sec faster than tib and could not control myself, went off the line a few times and that was it. Sometimes it pays off, other times does not. Who cares

(Joe Tro - Mundo) - Doesn't your boss cares ?
Shaka : He does, but I don't. We don't get along very well, he's a devil and I'm tired of him. Sometimes I wish he dies...

(Lee Gado - Chinese Motorsports) - What is your opinion on the new weight penalty rule ? Quite polemic, considering we are getting half-way through the season, no ? Are you happy with the stewards decision ?
Shaka : Not happy, but we don't get a say on the rules. I get on my car, drive it as fast as I can and how much it weights or how much fuel I get onboard is up to the team to decide. I just wish Ross gets back sometime...

(Matt Nela - L.A Post) - Quite a special event for Lotus team, considering you guys will be driving a original Elise, are you excited to drive it ? And can we expect some Clark-like drive from you?
Shaka : I hope you mean Jim Clark, not Clark Kent, as he died. Poor guy... Oh, Jim died too, and driving a Lotus car. Shit... Anyway, I am really excited about driving a Lotus liveried car produced by us and that makes me want to win both rounds even more I would want normally! So yes, sure!

(Droopy - Happy Times) - You seem, happy, are you..., happy ? ´Cause i am... happy.
Shaka : no

Thanks for your time, and good luck tonight.
Shaka : sorry, guys, i mean, thanks, guys!
