That's what they all will look like. And I hear they are cutting budgets on a lot of parts so we will see how it goes. First race is end of this month. US team comming in 2010.

Rear wings look a lot skinnier.

Man I've been watching practice and qualifying and it's amazing. With all the changes everyone's cars are so different from last year and each other. Even though I'd seen pics and a couple of vids of the new cars, the front wings to me look much larger than I thought they were watching the cars on track. The diffuser issue had been interesting, curious as to how that will turn out next week. And to have a new team on top of the grid... gonna be one hell of a season.

Haha, yeah I am and I'm going to watch them again this afternoon. Can't wait for the race, with everything that's been going down it's going to be one hell of race. SPEED has some new graphics which are cool and also shows the KERS status. It's definitely shaping up to be an exciting race in more ways than one!

Brawn GP 1-2 after the incident for Barichello???
Hardcharging Kubica and top-performing Vettel knocks themselves out???
Hamilton to podium after a sluggish start???

Man that was one hell of a beginning for the season. A crazy start, first corner first action as usual and then end under caution! Kubica and Vettle messed up a good ending for each other, Ferrari ends up like they did last year there, and Hamilton ends up with 3rd place (Trulli got penalized after the race). Button almost screwed it up for Brawn with his last pit stop. What else?

So many variables now with all the new car designs, diffuser differences, KERS or no KERS, tires not only being slick but are 2 grades apart this year... I can't wait for next weekend to se what happens.

Button is now 2-0! What a start to the season for him! The race was red flagged so he only received 5 points for the win though. I'm liking this season so far.
