Hmmm maybe Minardi can get a good engine now, not likely haha
Poor Jaguar, good to see webber moving onto bigger and better things, F1 is falling apart. In a few years there will be only 4teams or something left, no1 else will be able to afford it.... even with the new rule changes (only 1engine a weekend etc)

It's not Jag, it's Ford pulling up stumps.....
No more subsidy for Cosworth, and no more playing with the big boys for the Blue Oval.
Most likely sell the team to the owner of Red Bull....

If only FoMoCo had given Pitchforth and Purnell a decent budget, we'd have seen some podiums from Webber in the Green Machine. Fighting with a budget smaller than BAR's engine budget is ridiculous.......

I have heard a rumour that Ford will form a team in its own right in 2006 with the new rules coming into place.

Lets hope that this is not the start of the end of F1 as we know it.
If there aren't 10 teams, then other teams have to have 3+ cars, it could end up like watching a one make series!
