If Bernie goes with FOTA and the Manufacturers, IMO it just shows the greed of him!

So what about the line in FOTA's statement about lowering ticket prices for fans, I can't see Bernie helping in that regard.

Hooray I say, although I would be sad to see KERS abandoned but that's another debate.

it seems very short on details, but the intent certainly sends a very loud message.

So it should too. The management of this sport has long been one of the most egocentric dictatorships in world sport.

for the record, i agree with budget caps, but it seems as though this whole thing is about something far greater than 2010 rule regulations...

Oh ...

Anyone who thinks this is good, no matter how much you hate Max and Bernie, is an absolute fool.

The fall out of this will rock this sport to it's very foundations.

Single seater racing will never be the same again...

Maybe the Indy 500 can be part of this new series, like it used to be when Clark and Hill won it. You listening Tony George?

Let's hope the BBC can get out of their contract if this goes ahead! No-one wants to watch Williams and Force India battling it out whilst everyone else is on Sky or something...

In the 80's Don King was a force in Boxing, everyone has to fall sooner or later. Bernie must fall, his days as an F1 supremo looks set to be over!

I just wonder where this leaves the Donington revamp because F1 or no F1, I think the new plans are pretty good and would benefit other racing series as well.

I hope they can still go ahead somehow.
