[Dr.Honda]

Interesting feeling. Now that old Honda team has won, I don't feel any more "loyalty" to that team.

agreed, need a new underdog to route for....go USF1!:wink:

I had a look at this today, more tomorrow:

VTEC or any other form of variable valve lift profile is not allowed in F1 engines.

I guess Honda saw that restriction as reason enough to not pay attention to F1 anymore, at least until that and other silly rules change.

Re: See ya Kimi

Looks like McLaren's not too interested if they're not willing to pay full boat for Kimi and expect to ride on Ferrari's severance package.
http://en.f1-live.com/f1/en/headlines/news/detail/091106091155.shtml Can't see him too interested in any other team either.

Kimi's probably already shopping around for his collection of bars and clubs or a ralley team. :wink: Heck, I'll bet lunch on that one. :tongue:

Re: How lame is this?

I just discovered that it's possible to scream and laugh at the same time. A new low for CrashNet.

Brawn said that the Brackley-based team's determination to retain its front-running status next year was the primary cause of it losing ground to chief rival Red Bull during the second half of the 2009 season.​

I had no idea they were working so hard and early on the BGP 002.

And speaking of McLaren, the post could be titled: "No Good Deed goes Unpunished" :frown: It would be cool for McLaren to come out with their own engine and be competitive.

Next year's changes should be good...........err..........make that "interesting."
