There must be afew technical places teams can gain a huge advantage like this.

Thats my opinion but since 'in season' testing is banned it will be very difficult.

Very good point.
If any team does develop using brains only, I think Mr.Brawns team will be the one!!


Seeing as their entire car was pretty much developed with no track testing, I can't say I agree with all the people saying that they won't be able to match the development of McLaren and Ferrari.

Here's the thing, the teams can spit the dummy over the diffuser and its so-called illegal 5 tenths advantage (Still maintain it's clearly legal, as do all the Stewards and officiators so far)...5 tenths (If it's worth that) isn't going to put Brawn GP in the team's clutches. They have much more than that in hand.

That's as much what Niki Lauda said about this. Not for nothing is Ross considered a genius :P

Yeah, I read that, it's part of the reason I was willing to come out and say it. James Allen reckons the same.

i think the guys that came up with the new regs the OWG which consisted of gurus from McLaren, Ferrari and Renault are the ones who are worst off atm. Which is why they are saying this diffuser goes against the spirit of the new regs as they came up with them to help the cars follow and overtake.

Agreed!

The diffuser is but a relatively small part of a complete breakfast...Er, I mean, package. :D The Brawns also have raw speed and very controlled suspension movements. With their plain paintwork and amazing performance, they look like Scalextric cars! Add to that formula two vastly experienced drivers, and the combination is a bomb (in a good sense).

Good point, nicely presented.
