Sky just reporting that MSC has called off it racing comeback with Ferrari...

(Apparently due to the neck injury)

Shocked

Gene or Badoer then? I suspect one or both of them have been preparing alongside MSC's preparations just in case it didn't work out.

Sadly? Valencia has to be the worst track ever created. It could be the worst plans in the world and still better than this race

The bigger picture is perhaps more important than the short term gain.
I know its very unlikely to happen. But suggests to me Michael has the itch to come back.
Alonso
Massa
Schumacher
I'd say thats as close to a dream team as you can get these days.
And imagine what would happen if there were a ferrari 1-2-3 at Monza. Shocked

I see no reason to not run three cars. It would have no effect on the constructors championship as any constructors points scored the third placed car of the three in any race would be ignored, allowing them to compete on a level playing field with two car teams.

Which was my suggestion on my original post before my internet crashed and I couldn't be bothered in retyping it all lol
I think a nominated car for no constructors would be better.
I think the big teams need to run a 3rd car. Otherwise a big name driver is likely to be left out somewhere.
with BMW going under, both Kubica and Heidfeld are faced with no big name teams being free.
If Mclaren and Toyota could run 3rd cars thats going to give them a drive they deserve.
