    'I told you so' Based purely on pride and a drastically tenuous link to an old debate



    Please see the tongue in cheek tone of this thread and not kill me!

    I was saying the V8s would really affect the driving stlye in F1. The tongue-in-cheekness comes from the fact that I was talking about the world champ. Rather than the the backmarkers.

    The aero is different, the weight balance is different, the tyres are different, the chassis is different, the suspension is different. It's not JUST the V8 versus V10 and if he were to drive a restricted V10 then he would have EXACLY the same complaint about the power.

    So still not sure WHAT the debate was about then
    HE is lamenting the loss of power !!

    I know, I know! Hence my explanation of the tounge-in-cheek-ness.

    It was from a discussion we were having on here a while back.

    I'm thinking if the FIA keeps taking things away from F1 the GPWA will start in 2008

    I predict the GPWA would be as succesful as A1GP

    Ferrari said that their reason for signing an extension of the Concorde Agreement and not joining the GPMA is they want to be called a privateer and not a manufacturer

    "We have got a different philosophy of driving and a different philosophy for the car."

    Said the experienced veteran, with almost 1 year's F1 driving experiance after moving from, what, F3000?
    Thanks for all the fish
