In case you didn't get the message..
I’ve been fascinated by the coverage of the FOTA teams’ entry for next year’s world championship in the last couple of days.
On Friday morning I was saying that something was going to come out of FOTA which was quite different from the convergence position with the FIA that was being widely reported. And so it [...]
So are the nine teams in or out?
The nine remaining teams in the Formula One Teams Association submitted a conditional entry for the 2010 world championship before the deadline at midnight last night.
Along with that single entry for all nine of them, they have submitted a document with proposals for cost reduction to the FIA, which Toyota’s John Howett describes as ‘comprehensive’.
There [...]
Counting down to midnight
After all the brinkmanship, the tough talking and the threats, the Formula 1 teams should today, barring any last minute upset, submit entries by midnight for the 2010 world championship. Ferrari will still be a Formula 1 team and life will carry on.
A statement is expected today from the Formula One Teams Association with their [...]
Why Button would stay with Brawn
There has been quite a bit of chatter in the last couple of days about Jenson Button’s future, in light of comments made by Brawn GP’s Nick Fry on the subject.
“Jenson’s been with us a long time, and we’ve had failures and we’ve had successes,” said Fry. “My objective, and our objective, is to have [...]
Williams ousted as FOTA unity damaged
At a meeting of FOTA teams in London today it was decided to suspend the membership of the Williams team, after they broke ranks and submitted an entry to the 2010 world championship.
“Fota’s decision, although regrettable, is understandable,” said team boss Frank Williams. “As a company whose only business is F1 with obligations to our [...]
Why Williams had to look after itself
I posted here on Sunday morning that I had heard Williams were going to break ranks with the other Formula 1 teams and put in an entry for the 2010 season this week and they have done that.
I’ve been thinking about this, about why they have done it, what it will do to FOTA unity [...]
How close are Ferrari now?
Sunday’s Monaco Grand Prix saw confirmation that Ferrari are back in business. Kimi Raikkonen qualified within hundredths of a second of Jenson Button with only two laps less fuel on board and in the race the Scuderia got its first double points haul of the season, with Raikkonen third and Felipe Massa fourth.
On top [...]
Toyota on way out of F1, BMW reflecting?
This morning in Monaco there was plenty of activity around the ongoing discussions about the 2010 F1 rules and plenty of chat about what was going to happen next.
It seems to be becoming widely believed that Toyota will use this situation to make its exit from Formula 1. They were thinking about it towards the [...]
Button dominates Monaco
Jenson Button did another first class job to win the Monaco Grand Prix from pole position today. He was followed home by Rubens Barrichello and Kimi Raikkonen, who gave Ferrari their first podium of the season.
Barrichello got the jump on Raikkonen at the start, which was crucial for the outcome of the race as it [...]
Monaco race day diary
It’s race day in Monaco. The weather has been fantastic all weekend and it’s perfect again for the Grand Prix.
The crowds coming in today on the train were much greater than yesterday. Tens of thousands pouring into the Principality. There are still plenty of grandstand seats left, though at Tabac, St Devote, Swimming Pool, Chicane. [...]
