Ferrari rivals' 'rubbish'

Ferrari are not 'killing' F1, FIA president Max Mosley insisted. The Englishman, at a media lunch in London, blamed any winning monotony on other top teams - like McLaren, Williams, BAR and Renault - for not posing a tough enough challenge.

He said: ''They're doing a rubbish job. 'It's not up to Ferrari to lose, it's up to them to win -- and it's up to the other teams to catch up.''

Mosley denied that the FIA 'help' Ferrari maintain their mantle at the top of the F1 time sheet. ''We'd have to be mad to favour them,'' he laughed. ''If I could slow Michael Schumacher down, I would -- but you can't.''
