I have been a die hard F1 fan for 15 years ever since I was in junior high. In those years I have watched every race, have had a subscription to F1 Magazine since its inception, and followed the sport closely. It is a shame what happened but I an see no other way to have had things transpire. Mich. engineers screwed up, the FIA can in no way change the rules to aid select teams, and despite how pissed some people are, why would Ferrari not run in a race that they came prepared for. The rules in 2008 seem to put more emphasis on mechanical grip and less on ero. so it will make for closer racing. However given the fact that F1 attracts the most talented engineers, I think if the FIA would leave the rules alone long enough, these smart guys will figure out how to make the cars effectivley race in dirty air. This would be a breakthrough for all forms of aerodynamic engineering.....hey isn't that what F1 has always been about?
