DOHCTR Coopz!

I was there with my missus and once again, a handful of ferrari fans show there typical un-sportsman-like stinky attitudes! I had my Jenson Button flag and they were bagging me and my missus throughout the race! at the end of the race we held the flag over our heads proudly... lol EAD fagggzzzz...

but it was a great race... and weather was really good! So happy that I was there for Button's 2nd career victory... Honestly I didn't think I'd ever attend a race where JB would win! lol Brawn team ftw!~

It's amazing that Brawn got all the deals put in place to get an engine, to get an entry and to revive the team (And now a sponsorship deal with Bransen).

It was however not amazing that they did so well. The only thing that amazes me is that they married the Mercedes to the Honda chassis in such a short amount of time AND that they had so little track time before the season. (Massive kudos to the team for this) Everything else was already put in place, the engineers, the R&D facilities, the car... More than a year of development competing with 8 to 6 months, hardly a surprise...

I admire very much Brawn, Fry and Rubens (Never been a Button fan).

And... what buggs me is everyone is hyping this team to be "new"... It is NOT new (in the sense that everyone thinks anyway), the only new thing about this team as of now is management and engine... Honda money has always been there (Up until a certain point anyway) and now being replaced with new money...

We will see the effects of Brawns leadership as opposed to Fry and Honda soon enough...

Yeah lol... I'm not familiar with any native Malay culture/attitudes...

Like I said... we haven't had a new team (Built from scratch) since Toyota in 2002... Wait until USGP...

ok it was just the arrogance that was pissing me off.

there is no such thing as native malay culture

Honda's Two-Year Strategy Is On Course
Forgive the intrusion to the "incredible fairytale" proclaimed by Eddie Jordan, but, upon reflection, the Brawn GP story is not the romantic tale of plucky underdogs making good that some elements of the F1 media are intent on depicting.

Brawn GP are not the new boys on the block. They are the massively-resourced Honda team operating under a new badge and with a considerable budget. Their figurehead is the most-celebrated engineer in the team's history. Their drivers are both established race winners. And they've been working on this car for over a year.

Where precisley is the romance in that? And where's the underdog? There is, undoubtedly, a novelty factor in finding another team at the top of the pile but, in general, Brawn are being portrayed as something they are not.

As Martin Whitmarsh remarked, Brawn are effectively reaping the rewards of "a strategy" devised by Ross Brawn 15 months ago when, in his own words, "we decided to virtually drop the programme for 2008 and concentrate on 2009."

Some might consider that strategy duplicitous. Not so; it was a business decision, and one made easy by the full horror that was the unfixable Honda. There's no polishing a turd, after all. But there's a flip-side to consider. McLaren and the like should have no shame - and suffer no repercussions - from copying aspects of the Brawn, including their controversial diffuser. "We had 15 months to look at the regulations," remarked Brawn at Melbourne. The rest of the field, busy racing to the maximum in 2008, had no such luxury.

That is way underplayed...the fact remains that Honda was NEVER a competitive outfit. This weekend in Australia, however, they have shown otherwise.

Ross Brawn is the instigator of all this success...

And this team was competitive at one stage in their B.A.R. Honda guide under the watchful eyes of David Richards/Prodrive (Same organization which ran the Subaru WRC teams) - 2004, they came 2nd in the constructors championship, beating McLaren & Williams (who were part of the "top 3 teams" at the time)
