renault f1 team = negative publicity

Renault got extremly lucky in suzuka, with Schumi engine gone and massa s puncture, it couldnt have been better for renault. So what happened concerning all those remarks from flav and alonso about the title being decided on the table.
just Comparing the reactions of both the teams after the last 2 races makes me wonder and question the quality of pudlic figures that represent those teams .

After all, those teams should be concerned about how they are perceived by the public and the consumers of their main products, and not forget that the are just part of a big corporation that uses f1 for publicity reasons.

For sure Flav knows this too well and obviously not looking for long term plans regarding renaults future
