I'd done a 12 hour drive on Saturday though so had an excuse.  Really good to see the 'little guys' getting their shot though.

Re: Honda bows out of F1 ! ! ! Economy hurts !
I agree with you Dave! But in defense of the Big Guys, they didn't do much development work last year as Merc & Ferrari were busy with other things, and Brawn GP was spending Honda's $ on the new formula for 09's chassis for almost the entire 08 season.....I'll bet a lot of the little guys from 08 were spending a lot of time on the 09 chassis. My guess would be that everyone was seeing the opening created by the fight between Merc & Ferrari, and took advantage of that situation. JMHO

I think Mercedes and Ferrari blew their budgets on spies and court appearances last year

Re: Honda bows out of F1 ! ! ! Economy hurts !
Holy smokes.....at the end of Q1 seaaion, Hamilton did not make it to Q2!!!!!
back to watching...  Q2 resulted in the other McLaren being knocked out at P14. Vettal in the RB renault is P1, both Brawns and Truli's Toyota and both Ferarri's made it to Q3 along with Alonzo, and I think Weber(?). back to watching...... Q3 Vettal and Button first row, Webber & Rubens second row....the RBR's have split the Brawn cars....looks like it may be a good idea to not engrave the Constructor's Trophy's plaque just yet.
