I'm Betting Mr Honda san was crying into his noodles while watching the ashes of his team rise again to form Brawn and onto the world championship.

Toyota....had about as much luck as Honda.

BMW....such a shame, perhaps if they'd stuck it out with Williams for a few more years they would have seen the 2 great names take a championship rather than see 2 great names floundering in the 'also rans'.

I wonder how many of these teams have taken a good long look at how RedBull has configured itself....2 teams has certainly had some effect on accelerating their return on investment.

There's news on the Renault front as well. They are looking at a possibility of an out as well. This could put RedBull in a fix...

RedBull was angling for a new deal for some of Fritz's engines for 2010 (Mercedes). Dunno where they were up to with this tho'. If Renault bunk off then Im sure one of their Private Partners would be lured to continue with this engine...I believe the engine rules are frozen still so no development to be done just make 'em and break 'em. Mechachrome did this last time Renault left the sport when they were supplying engines to Williams and Bennetton.
