Following on from my poll re which team will make the most improvement 7upjordan asked which team would fall back the most next year.
Good point - so what do you think?
Which team will fall back most next year?
I have not put Force India as they have nowhere to fall back to at present!

I voted for STR.

I think they are having a very good season, but I also think they won't be able to keep up next year.

Teams like Renault, Honda, Toyota will be better/more consistent next year, thus surpassing STR.

Although I must admit, STR has become more enjoyable to watch as the season went on.

Unfortunately Torro Rosso, I like them alot but they have been punching well above their weight this year! Also I think Red Bull will want their No.1 team to perform better!

well its too hard to predict anything whether it be whose going to jump to the front or whose going to fall behind.

its reported that Ferrari are having troubles with KERS which is also affecting Force India's decision to choose McLaren-Mercedes drivetrain KERS package.

I voted for Torro Rosso as well. I think without Vettel they will fall back and they'll lose some of the input that Vettel provides.

I reckon it'll be Toro Rosso. They'll still have Bourdais and he's been showing recently he can be a match or even better than Vettel, but there's the new rules coming into play.

Toyota could struggle as well as they've never been good at low aero circuits and any track with very bumpy kerbs.

I think it'll most likely be STR... and if they end up hiring Piquet and Sato (both drivers have been rumored for a drive) then they're in deep sh...! :hehe:

Ferrari - relatively speaking. If they can't get their KERS sorted out, it'll be an uphill battle to stay with the top teams (BMW, McLaren, Renault, Red Bull in that order).

I voted Toyota, mainly because they never have consistent year after year. Toro Rosso will probably drop back quite a bit, but part of me believes that Bourdais' experience will greatly benefit the team next year.

well its too hard to predict anything whether it be whose going to jump to the front or whose going to fall behind.

its reported that Ferrari are having troubles with KERS which is also affecting Force India's decision to choose McLaren-Mercedes drivetrain KERS package.

I chose Ferrari as well for the same reason you mentioned. Believe it or not we just agreed on something and it is anti Ferrari. :confused:

But serioulsy Ferrari need to get their act together with KERS. Maybe they will make fast head way after Kimi Raikkonen does is 9000 km of testing after the season is over......................
