I suspect somethings up with the Brawn cars. I really feel those cars are dirty! They come out of no where qualify 1 & 2 and finish 1& 2 in the race? Is it just me or what? Your thoughts.

P.S I apologize in advance if I have insulted any of the Brawn fans.

Sorry to post this late but I was working. I don't think there is anything fishy with Brawn cars. Look at pictures of all teams cars from every angle and see if you notice a difference in the Brawn cars. The rear diffusers IMO don't account for advantage Brawn has, but more down force due to shape of body work. I see more horizontal and flat wide surfaces of the nose, sidepods and rear bodywork.

thats car has has 2 years worth of R and D on it with about 200 people working on it where as the top team had about 6-8months with around 100 people due to the fact they were pushing to the end of season and had to keep working on to current car :)

I agree. Honda admitted last season early on that they were working on this season's car and had effectively written the 2008 season off. I'm fairly sure that a lot of the work that got done therefore didn't make it onto the '08 cars and although this isn't Honda any more, Brawn will have taken those ideas forward into Brawn GP.

To be honest, I think Brawn GP have just been successful in their creation of their new car.
I do not think anything is "fishy", even though Barrichello has suddenly gone from zero to hero. ( 2008 - 2009)
Remember it's about the ability of the driver too.

I do, I do :wavey:

Were do I sign up. Whether you compare things to the past bull. In the past F1 teams built their cars in their gardens and hoped the seat didn't fall out. Now it's a little different. I think there is a sign of something. In the real world miracles don't happen. The FIA will soon find out ;) not unless Bernie’s pocket gets a little bigger? :shrug:
