Team with Ross Brawn doing the strategy, talented no 1 driver and Barichello as no. 2 driver.

Adrian Newey designed F1 car, fast but flawed, as the 2nd best on the grid.

| Quote: | Rubens Barrichello has expressed irritation that, while team-mate Jenson Button seemingly strolls to the 2009 world championship, the sister Brawn is not proving such a smooth ride.
After 15 laps of the Istanbul circuit on Sunday, runaway leader Button said he was tempted to radio the pits and hail the BGP 001 ‘outrageous’.
That word, however, could also have been used by 38-year-old Barrichello, but more literally, for he had nearly stalled at the start, found himself stranded in the pack with a malfunctioning gearbox, and got involved in wheel-to-wheel clashes.
When he parked in the garage, it was the former Honda team's first retirement of the 2009 season, leaving the veteran Brazilian 26 points behind in the title race.
"I had clutch trouble at the start, the same as Australia - it was the wrong calculation for the clutch once again on my side.
"Then the engine limiter was coming in on the straights and I couldn't overtake. I'm not criticising the team but I think we have to be more careful with my stuff," Barrichello said after the race.
"The bad luck seems to be happening too much on my side," he added. |

| Quote: | FIA says £40m budget cap going ahead
The FIA says that its plans for a £40 million budget cap will now go ahead unchanged, after the latest talks between the governing body and the Formula One Teams' Association (FOTA) to try and find a compromise ended without a deal.
Leading financial representatives from both the FIA and FOTA met in London on Monday to try and reach a settlement on next year's rules that would be acceptable to both parties.
There had been some hope that new rules could be put in place after preliminary agreement was reached between FIA president Max Mosley and several representatives of FOTA in a meeting last week.
However, the FIA has been left disappointed that this week's meeting achieved nothing, after FOTA's representatives said they could not discuss the rules, and the teams' proposals were rejected as being ineffective.
A statement issued by the FIA on Tuesday said: "As agreed at the meeting of 11 June, FIA financial experts met yesterday with financial experts from FOTA.
"Unfortunately, the FOTA representatives announced that they had no mandate to discuss the FIA's 2010 financial regulations. Indeed, they were not prepared to discuss regulation at all.
"As a result, the meeting could not achieve its purpose of comparing the FIA's rules with the FOTA proposals with a view to finding a common position.
"In default of a proper dialogue, the FOTA financial proposals were discussed but it became clear that these would not be capable of limiting the expenditure of a team which had the resources to outspend its competitors. Another financial arms race would then be inevitable.
"The FIA Financial Regulations therefore remain as published."
The FIA has become increasingly frustrated with the failure to find a solution to the row, and on Monday it accused factions with FOTA of deliberately trying to scupper a deal.
F1's current teams have been given until Friday to drop the conditions attached to their entries, or risk being left off the grid for 2010.
With part of their conditions being that the 2010 regulations are scrapped, the FIA's latest stance makes it increasingly unlikely that the matter can be resolved before the deadline. |

The budgets of some of these teams were unbelievably high. The need to impose caps was there, their method of doing it however is questionable.
They could have staggered it like 100m next year, 75m year after, etc.
The straight jump to 40m would be chaotic for teams like Ferrari, Toyota, McLaren |

"The teams cannot continue to compromise on the fundamental values of the sport and have declined to alter their original conditional entries to the 2010 World Championship.
"These teams therefore have no alternative other than to commence the preparation for a new Championship which reflects the values of its participants and partners. This series will have transparent governance, one set of regulations, encourage more entrants and listen to the wishes of the fans, including offering lower prices for spectators worldwide, partners and other important stakeholders.
"The major drivers, stars, brands, sponsors, promoters and companies historically associated with the highest level of motorsport will all feature in this new series."
i didn't think this would happen, man 2010 is going to be interesting. |
