Rubens Barrichello launched an astonishing attack on his own team in the wake of today's German Grand Prix.
The Brawn GP driver was left fuming at the Nurburgring, blaming team bosses for robbing him of victory.
Despite taking the lead on the run down to the first corner, and Mark Webber being handed a drivethrough penalty for bumping into the Brazilian at the start, Barrichello trailed home sixth.
That prompted outrage from the 37-year-old, and not for the first time this season as he was annoyed at tactics deployed during the Spanish Grand Prix, another race he felt he should have won.
When asked what went wrong, Barrichello pulled no punches as he said: "I guess the strategy in the pit lane...it was a good show from the team on how to lose a race today.
"I'm terribly upset with the way things have gone. I did all I had to do. I went first on the first corner, and then they made me lose the race.
"If it is really what's going on, we're going to end up losing both championships. I feel sorry for myself, the team.
"To be very honest, I wish I could get on the plane and go home. I don't want to talk to anyone in the team.
"It will be all 'blah, blah, blah' and I don't want to hear that."
