I meant this year, Streak. We were close to having next year's points system this year, if you remember back to the beginning of the season.

No way will Ferrari pull out of F1. Toyota, maybe, but not the Scuderia. Enzo would roll over in his grave.

This is typical posturing by Max with the expected response by the teams.

Don't underestimate his (and Bernie's) desire to break up the FOTA relationship. He knows there's no way the big teams will go for a two-tiered system, and he knows the small teams (eg Williams) would be more than happy to have a budget cap. This could potentially cause some infighting.

I don't see why there's the strong desire now to have a bunch more new teams in F1. It wasn't so long ago we had an overfull grid, with such luminaries as Larousse, Zakspeed, Lola etc...and it was all a bit crap.
