I think that they wont even make the grid, cause mclaren dont want to give them a chassis!

Nick is simply more than quick, he is great.

Never mind McLaren not giving them a chasis, there is the small matter of seeing whether or not their entry is going to be allowed.

I'd get on the phone to Lola or Dallara and also Cosworth if I was Mr Richards.

Yeah but that'll make them much lower on competitiveness. I would be surprised if anyone else (out of Ferrari, McLaren, BMW, maybe Renault and RedBull) can come out with really competitive chassis for the next year.

What would be fun - though impossible - is seeing new teams with something like Ferrari chassis with Mercedes/BMW engine... or vice versa. I'm wondering how (im)possible would it be to successfully fit such combos.

You can have it in any colour - as long as it's black. Or red. Or blue. Or green. Or white. Or navy blue. Or...

So, why can't they buy this year's chassis from somebody? Super Aguri did it.

yeah

or even cos Ferrari build fast cars

Lambrigini or Bugetti or some other Super-car makers..just can just think of what teams could be battling of the win:

McLaren, Ferrari, Lambo, Bugatti - but then they would have to increase the points system too:

1st - 20
2nd - 15
3rd - 10
4th - 9
5th - 8
6th - 7
7th - 6
8th - 5
9th - 4
10th - 3
11th - 2
12th - 1

that might be the vision of the future
