lol hopefully webber is adjusting to the change...

[LUD02C]

The red bull car looks awesome.
Anyone else read Webber slamming Pizzonia about his driving ability in race conditions?

[jackosimm]

yeh the redbull's lookin sleek! Sauber? or is it a new Jaguar? and whats this about Webber lol?

[LUD02C]

It’s the new Jaguar champ!

Cosworth got bought out by the 2 gentlemen who own the Champ car series and are now supplying engines to Red Bull (for 2005 only), Jordan and Minardi.

Imagine when the V8 rule comes in, Indy/champ cars are V8’s slight advantage I think ;)

remebering that jordan are going to be using the toyota engine from (2005 onwards) so it will just be Redbull racing for one year as they have made it clear they want a factory engine supplier. Who knows what will hapen to minardi probably use old cosworths again... and be slow... forever...

[Sp3rMz]

Minardi needs a big bro to help em out. Don't know if they'll ever get anywhere, but they need to be more competitive. Someone needs to give em a boost.

[LUD02C]

Jordan went to Toyota because they thought Cosworth was out of F1...

[civ_sik]

and because those cosworth engines were a shit spec compared to jaguar... in other words they felt they were been mistreated

[LUD02C]

Well now they will be basically the 2nd test team for toyota :)

[civiceg9]

imagine Jordan is faster then Toyota this year.
Home Honda can win a few races this year and Ferrari win none.
So sick of seeing those red cars

[vti-2]

I can't wait till 2005 season starts! It's gonna be an awesome year for racing with a lot of changes between teams etc. Go Honda and Go Mark Webber. :D

[Kawasaki]

I wonder how BAR honda is going to perform now that its a partner with honda. Hope ferrari get owned

[LUD02C]

I think Mark Webber put it best last week,
"We can't beat Michael, we can on the odd occassion. We are going to get as close as we can."

[McChook]

Considering every other teams bugetary difference with Ferrari, the fact that ANY other team won a race last year is amazing

[razaman]

Anyone know if they are sticking to black? Let's hope so - looks hella mean!:thumbsup:

[?uestlove]

I think the Toyota Team, will be up there this year, watch out Honda boys :P

[Dylan]

the black BAR Honda is only a concept car that they use in pre-season testing. They will be back to their regular colors at the first 2005 GP in Melbourne

[LUD02C]

I think the Toyota Team, will be up there this year, watch out Honda boys :P
Not only Toyota, but Renault got a big kick up the bum by the NEW board of directors!
6 of 8 of the directors got replaced, and new ones are expecting results otherwise it could be another Jaguar situation!

[tegstar83]

Is webber wearing montoyas helmet or something or am I just a dickhead??

[LUD02C]

Your not a dickhead...
It is close to Montoyas helmet and the reason for this is because the sponsors didn't want Mark to wear anything of his until January 1....

Mainly because Jaguar released him earlier!

[Dylan]

its clearly webbers helmet lol

i think its probably because of a rule that williams have, where the helmets have to be very simple and plain. EG:

Williams Helmet:

Jag Helmet:
http://members.f1.racing-live.com/photos/2004/team-jaguar/diapo_165.jpg

see how the jag one is heaps more advanced than the williams one. more metallic and reflective. the williams one just seems to use solid, non metallic colors

[tegstar83]

Oh ok it looked quite similar to Montoyas and the colombian flag on it LOL
