Mercededs is not that bad. I was a huge fan of their FIA Group C cars back in the 80's and 90's.

Nice Burning Man Pictures. Sweet.

Looks like the FIA is planning on scrapping the one tyre rule introduced this year

Why doesn't FIA and Ferrari just come out and admit that they bob each other's knob. :roll:

Let's see if we can't deduce why this might have happened:

-FIA implements single tire rule for 2005 season
-Michelen gets a leg up on Bridgestone with the new format
-Ferrari suffers on Bridgestone tires
-Rule goes away for 2006

I wish the GPWC deal would happen, unfortunately w/o FIA as the sanctioning body, the championship wouldn't mean as much... plus a change that drastic would kill the sport, just look at CART/IRL. :(
