    I stopped posting F1 news until i make my race weekend threads but this really is too important.

    Ferrari is F1.

    Without it, F1 will become another INDY, GP2, or whatever other open wheel series that means little to nothing.

    Max needs to change this quick. The Tifosi are really the majority of F1's fans.

    I realize that Luca and Max haven't gotten along and sometimes it seems that their ignorance toward each other turns bad for everyone, but this time, too much is at stack.

    Losing Ferrari is a fatal blow to F1. My feelings toward the series would turn really harsh it goes through.

    Why do they want to leave the series? I'm sure they understand the ramifications that would effect the rest of the sport, so why would they go through with it?

    As a life-long spectator, I look forward to top-tier racing especially during less that favorable times such as this. With Ferrari out of the field, it just wont be the same. Just another sad story spawned by this strangled economy.

    Because F1 should be the pinnacle of racing. You do whatever you have to do and spend whatever you have to in order to win. Ask Toyota if you think im kidding.

    Budget caps should stay in feeder series such as GP2.

    Ten-tenths.com has reminded me of this year's Le Mans.

    Luca di Montezemolo will wave the French flag (green flag) at this years Le Mans 24. Stefano Domenicali will be there as well.

    Might this mean a move to sports car racing. A first for Ferrari since 1972?

    As good as that sounds, Ferrari will always be a Formula 1 company. I hope this isn't ruined for 2010.

    man, where to even begin. oh wait I got it.
    FUCK MAX MOSELY.
    oh right, that about sums it up really.

    The new regulations are absolutely the most horrendous sets of rules I have ever heard of in my life. Right next to the the Speed World Challenge qualifying coin toss.
    I understand curtailing some expenses related to Formula 1. The budgets for the teams really are just exorbitant. But dont curtail the technology. Thats the whole point of Formula 1. Give them spec engines, well, I might as well watch GP2, A1GP or even the new SuperLeague. and get rid of the KERS BS.
    do I think Ferrari will pull out? Probably not, they will most likely come to some sort of agreement. They as companies are both well aware of the need for each other even though they dont really agree on anything. Like US and China, hahaha. And if for some reason they dont come to an agreement, then yes, Ferrari, I think will leave.
    It would be kul to see a Ferrari P-car.

    yeah it definitely would be nice to see a ferrari prototype. been a long time since thats happened. lord knows they would probably bring a good amount of competition once again.
