[Ferrari man 009]

I was thinking about the success Red Bull have had with Toro Rosso being their B team and I was thinking, with Ferrari's resources would it not be worth Ferrari doing a similar thing and having a team to bring through future champions such as Bianchi. LDM has gone on about getting Ferrari a third car but why not just run another team. Call it Fiat or something

Good idea or bad idea?

I think it's a great idea, and I believe the Haas team may go some way towards this.

What's taking them so long to do it??

As long as they pick up the pace, yes. For me, the A Team should be one that includes a standout performance and even though I love Ferrari, we have not seen that since 2012 and I have a huge doubt for 2015. But a B team would be splendid.

Sauber (maybe Minardi my memory is playing up) was originally a Ferrari B team.

Sauber owe Ferrari so much money they are a pseudo B team simply because I doubt they could afford to go to another supplier.

I meant as in they where originally set up to test Ferrari parts for them
