How can Tullio be a capable pilot on Tuesday and not on
Wednesday?

Will the other members of the Italian team going to the Worlds not
support their former team mate, Tullio Gervasoni, when he has clearly been
dismissed for reasons that have nothing to do with his capabilities as a pilot?

On Tuesday Tullio Gervasoni was chosen by Flavio Tebaldi to be the eighth pilot
flying as an Italian at the World Championships at Montecucco. On Wednesday a
few short hours after I published my article about the Italian team selection
process, noting that Tullio had been chosen, Tullio's name was stricken from the
list of pilots that would be flying for Italy and replaced by an unnamed Pilot
H.

It was quite clear that Tullio had not been pulled from the list of pilots
chosen by Flavio to fly in the Worlds because somehow he suddenly wasn't as
capable a pilot on Wednesday as he was on Tuesday. He was pulled because of what
I wrote in my article about the Italian selection process.

Now, how is that fair to Tullio? And how does that make it so the Italians field
the best pilots at the Worlds?

Will the members of the Italian team do the honorable thing and support Tullio
and ask that he be reinstated? Will they ask for that now and not wait until the
Worlds for Flavio to try to explain himself to the team? Will they ask Flavio to
explain himself now?
