Guys let's be serious. The anthem is a symbol. We don't play with symbols!

Symbols is a serious thing. Wars have started, men have fought and have killed for symbols! I don't want to analyze it, you get my point.

I don't know which side is wrong and which right, but i think this issue is important and needs further talking until we have a clear answer on what Anthem is the right for such an occassion!

My problem with symbols is that they're turning people into slaves and idiots on too many ocasions.

F1/GP racing was once countries battleing it out, but then at one point the country colours of the cars becamed replaced with international sponsor liveries.

The teams today are all multinational/international. It's not a national thing it's a team/brand/company thing.

Maybe F1 teams should have anthems of their own like football teams.

The Renaults that one in 2005 and 2006 were not french cars, but english cars with french engines on french tyres ... with a spanish driver WDC and italian boss ... and so on and so on ...

THAT'S IT! YOU'R THE MAN. Since teams are multinational they must have their own anthem! End of conversation! Bravo!

Re: A fuss about nothing? / Anthem problem in Germany

I know some of you will consider this as not very wise, but why not just play both anthems, the German and the English one? It's going to last a little bit more until both anthems have been played, but who cares. Everybody will be happy.

Re: A fuss about nothing? / Anthem problem in Germany

Play both anthems? Then why not play all the anthems of all the countries of the EU so that everyone is happy? That's a bit over the limit.

One team, one anthem!

Re: A fuss about nothing? / Anthem problem in Germany

I reckon it would be fine to play the anthem for just the driver, and then the team would have there own piece of music!
