Lets not jump to conslusions yet, theres still a long way.

But it has to be said that part of ferrari's package is still to come :D

Ferrari does well, and Ron Dennis cries to the FIA. He is now saying that Ferrari is using 'movable floor boards'.

I hope Alanso's engine lets go; so Dennis learns he needs to concentrate on his own team.

Maybe Ferrari IS using moveable floor boards??? Hell, most teams were running moveable wings last year, and it was Ferrari who protested the mass-dampers on the Renault mid-season. Nevermind Ferrari using those rear wheel spinning brake fan thingys and them NOT being banned even despite prtests from other teams.

Honestly, I don't side with ANY team (before anyone calls me out for being a supporter of one team vs. another). I think all of the team principles can be big ing babies when they want to...and they often want to.

As soon as Dennis (or anyone else) finds a similar advantage, someone else will bitch about it, or copy it. Likely copy - then bitch.

I think they should just fix a displacement, fix a rev limit, use a slick tyre, and paint a ing box on the ground that your car has to fit within. Anything else goes (other than ground effects that slide on the ground). Hell, ressurect Ken Tyrrell's brilliant 6-wheel design!! Innovate! Do something cool! Don't just burn the GDP of a small nation in your ing wind tunnel trying to find 0.5s. They need to loosen the rules, not tighten them.
noikeee
I don't agree. The rules have tightened and tightened and tightened because cars became too dangerously ing fast. If all technologies used in the past (like turbos, ground effects, slick tyres, unrestricted qualifying-specific engines, active suspensions, etc etc) were completely legal to use, drivers would seriously risk their lives and might not even be able to physically support all those G-forces. There *needs* to be a limit.

Also, the more technology is unrestricted, the more teams need to spend to research it. Yes it'd lead to interesting innovations, but the teams budgets would be even higher than now, some teams just wouldn't survive. Remember that a couple years ago the F1 grid was each year having less teams. Things changed since a bunch of restrictions were put in place.

Another good point for these, is that now it seems all the cars are closer in performance to each-other. We don't have any 7 seconds per lap slower teams like Forti or certain Minardis anymore. Unfortunately this means it's also harder to pass - but apparently the way to solve this is by restricting aerodynamics further.
