Give it time.  More poo is gonna hit the fan I'm sure.


But then again I'm rather cynical

Been thinking about this and listening to the poisoned dwarf's interview on Sky News and unsurprisingly there is lots of "I told you so" and "it was just a matter of time" etc regarding the high cost of F1. There is one big difference between Honda and all the other teams..............Honda have successfully shown that you cannot run an F1 team without sponsorship, so is it really a great shock that they have decided to withdraw?? And is this really a true reflection of the whole F1 finance picture??

well if that little troll would give the teams a fairer share of money, then maybe they wouldn't have to worry as much.
