Yeah, it's almost iconoclastic. Still don't know why they can't get a sponsor...?

They can't get a sponsor because nobody believes that they can compete once everyone catches up technically.

I never thought sponsors would be so savvy! Pretty soon Brawn should give up on 2009 (Jenson has won it, realistically) and start on 2010 unless they want to be a fluke.

I think what Matchett just said is correct.

F1 is about having the best tech, best drivers and best cars. Multiply that by 12 teams and you have F1.

The teams are testing tire compounds now.

This is why nobody wakes up for the practice sessions . . . .

What would I rather be doing?

It's 8 AM now (for me), so I've got the whole morning to read Brit car magazines and plan out a date w/ my gf tonight.

Hate the 5 AM deal for you guys.

I agree with Varsha: There is not enough hate in F1 today!
