:dozey: Bernie sez Honda is "sure to be sold"...

thereby having 20 cars on the starting grid !!!

But what if... no one buys Honda... then Bernie sez lowering the co$ts in 2009 will "insure" another team enters F-1.

:rolleyes: For a man (Bernie) who sez there is no contratual requirement for 20 cars to start each race....

He sure seems intent on finding two more cars !!!

No, no trouble for Bernie.

If the number of cars falls under 16 than the top teams will be required to field 3 cars.

I bet they would if you sign the checks for the first 5 seasons.

driveace probably thinks F1 is cheaper than ALMS.

Like a clever quip or comment on the situation, which will be so funny we all forget why we hated the short-statured, short-sighted rich git in the first place... ;)
