Or not as the case may be Roll Eyes

Chaos could be a good word.
We have Jacques Villeneuve returning, and racing for sauber next year, sauber just renewed the Ferrari deal meaning they will get this years engines next year, trullis been fired from renault effective immediatly, the contract recognition board are not going to deal with Buttons contract till october, Ferrari are threatening to leave F1 because they arnt getting enough money(although this is a concern of all F1 teams) new rules are being introduced definatly to "lower costs" basically to make cars so slow granny could drive them Roll Eyes

And a new qualification system is looking to be introduced(heres hoping)

I am now just waiting to Frank Williams to pull out the 93/94 FW14B and put it back on the track, Damon Hill and Nigel Mansell to offer to drive them(ok my own little F1 great wish, never happen Cry

) and the 2005 season will be set

Oh and teams are having problems getting to china for the race as there is tons of beurocratic red tape, despite it being china who begged for the damn race

But it's still boring.

Btw: Trulli will be Ralf's partner at Toyota next year.

Too be honest with you, F1 isnt boring at all, while it isnt the most exciting season i have seen in the 16+ years i have been watching, it sure isnt the worst, and the recent monza race was an amazing show of how good ferrari really are.

gonna be very close to that in a few years, as they pointed out, the downforce they run at Monza is what the teams will have to run at places like monaco and and imola, which in my opinion is dangerous. The are also rumors that the old slick tires will be back hopefully soon, and that they will get rid of refuling stops. That would really add some excitment as it would get pit crews back to who can really work the fastest.

I've really gotten into F1 lately and I seem to like Mr. Button.

It is a crazy sport and a lovely alternative to NASCAR!

well Jaguar wont be part of the line up from next year, thank you ford. and cosworth have been sold so that means its likely that jordan and minardi will be gone next year. lets see how interesting a race with only 14 cars really is.
