i say jenson deserves all the glory he gets this year.

all those years sticking with BAR / Honda in what were crap cars is now paying off.

Lewis has had everything handed on a plate for him. defo some arrogance showing this year being in a slower car.

and he doesn't get any browny points from me for his Aussie GP antics.

i dont think they are messing around.  is like in the 80's when the actually built an indycar.

They are to important to F1 for FIa to not take note and with majority of the teams on their side their will be a comprimise.

For once I agree with them as well two tier structure would be awful  If the sources are right they can run flexible rear wings if within budget cap which is 1-2 sec's a lap. 

F1 really knows how to shoot itself in the foot - potentially one of the most exciting seasons and they are rowing off track again  :fighting:

Well thats it, if Bernie & Max don't pull their 2010 rules by the end of today, F1 will be history at the end of the season.

Well done Bernie & Max, you brought it on yourself!

ohhh no that is not good.

Not un-surprising as they have been so poor this yr.  I fear for heidfield, maybe one of the small teams will snag him.  Im sure Kubica will be in ferrari

....

If BMW are quitting, how does that effect other teams with the BMW engine (Williams?). I don't actually know if anyone else has the BMW engine nowadays.

BMW bought Sauber and become engine and constructor.  no one is using them at the moment not sure if any of the newbies where planning on using their engines.

Really prey Toyota do not go as they really seem to be showing good signs of improvement
