Ferrari are makeing ilde threats while being safe in the knowledge that niether Mosely or the poison dwarf will ever call their bluff ! I'd let them go, they'd be back after a season and if they werent its not like they'd be the first team to ever leave the sport, f@ck um ! Ferrari is not F1  :angry:

Ferrari leaving would be no big loss, if anything it would improve F1 IMO. let them go and bring in the cap, they would loose millons from merchandising and would soon come back, plus the grids would be bigger which should make for more interseting races.

we'll find out by the 29th of may. It seems that the 3 new teams are most likely to be Prodrive , USF1 and either Lola or Super Aguri.

So will Ferrari follow up their threat and walk having lost the court case?

i think they were gonna walk because of the issue of two sets of regulations, but thats been scrapped now. whats still in discussion is the amount that the budget cap will be.

well we can safely say the days of Ferrari International Assistance are over!
