Re: £40m Budget Cap and Controversies
I don't really understand this. There's been whispers about that 100 million budget cap for next year and 45 million for 2011 for a while already, but then FIA already said this week that the 45 million for next year and their original plans would stay. So I wonder how it really is. Obviously if it's true, then FIA has backed down quite a lot, but I'm still not sure if all this budget cap stuff is the right way to go.
Re: £40m Budget Cap and Controversies
I think we're getting compromise from both sides, but kinda 70-30 in FIA's favour if you see what I mean.

I guess FOTA is just too scared to start their own series then. The 5 teams can't afford to be left out of grid in 2010 while Ferrari & Red Bull would have a major legal battle in their hands.

Yes and the FOTA teams will surely like it. If some teams have unrestricted engines and the others have only 18000 revs, then how would it not give any competitive advantage?

I think this is the end of the row. They will accept the €100m budget cap Mosley proposed. But then the discussion for 4-wheel-powered car, the wings, gearbox, etc. will start.
