F1 2008

So F1 launch time is upon us again, we've had four so far, those being the top three teams and Toyota:

McLaren

Ferrari
http://www.autosport.com/gallery/index.php/id/1188

BMW
http://www.autosport.com/gallery/index.php/id/1194

Toyota
http://www.autosport.com/gallery/index.php/id/1192

Toyota appear to have finally decided that the car that they had been upgrading over the last few seasons was never going to get them anywhere and have finally got an up to date looking car that is completely new.

McLaren are having to start again on some parts of their car after the spying row and say that the car will look radically different come March. They have also gone for a longer wheelbase and the Nose is as usual for McLaren completely new

Ferrai's biggest change appears to be a new nose on their car, but we shall see how much they have advanced on their title winning car from last season.

BMW have a completely new front end following the pattern of the other manufacturers.

The teams appear to be trying to follow McLarens idea last year of wrapping the body very tight to the inner components for better aero flow, we shall have to wait to see who makes the biggest steps forward

I'm backing McLaren and Hamilton to win the championships respectively.

I hate the modern Ferarri team with a passion, especially after last years shenanigans. They truly are the ManUre of motorsport.

I think Kubica could do well this season if he gets a competitive car.

Ferrari pushed and pushed and pushed against JUST McLaren and claimed they were doing it for the good of the sport, but when Renault got away scott free from the same guilty verdict they didnt care. Only in it for themselves and couldnt stand that the original verdict wasnt what they wanted. For years they have been favoured by the FIA, and its about time that Max Mosley stepped down because of it

Lets not ignore the blatant and wholly undeserved immunity Ferarri have from getting punished for almost any wrongdoing.

There is evidence other teams were "in possesion of data" about other cars - only McLaren were penalised, due almost entirely to Ferarri pushing the issue. Nothing at all to do with McLaren being Ferarri's only realistic threat to another title.

Or what about Schumacher? Without a doubt one of the most talented drivers ever, but whilst at Ferarri he sullied that by being a bully (forcing opponents off the track to secure a title) and by his whole attitude. He might hold a record number of titles* but he is hated by many because of what he stood for when driving for Ferarri. He is the only driver I have EVER heard booed at Silverstone.

* and were it not for the tragic untimely death of Ayrton Senna (a true champion and in my opinion the greatest ever F1 driver), Boxhead wouldn't have so many titles as he reigned over a period of considerable mediocrity.

I bet the cars will go round and round in circles a lot until they break or need tyres or petrol. Rolling Eyes

Ben, totally agree that Mosley favours Ferrari, F1 needs a revolution to rid the bastard, or were stuck with him for another 3 years, that aint the issue, yes they did push to have Mclaren penalised ahead of others, that also aint the issue,

Ravey, I despise Ferrari, dont get me wrong, you stated about last seasons indescretions, again what indescretions ?, we aint on about previous seasons, and their past histories, as you stated last season. Actually there is no evidence any actual Team had Ferrari tech information, just Alonso and de la Rosa, spoke about using info from Coughlan. It was Mosely's opinion that the info must have penetrated the teams.
I feel your beef should be against Mosley himsen and not Ferrari.
