Ferarri has tumbled the last 2 years making the season fascinating.
The new tire rule in 2005 killed Ferarri as Bridgestone could not get the tires right giving Renault the chance to dominate, McLaren shoudl have dominated but the damn cars would break all the time.
When the cars did not break Kimi's drives were epic.
Then this past year they changed the tire rule again giving Ferrari a chance to come back, they fumbled around for the 1st half of the season and Renault picked right back up dominating.
Meanwhile McLaren developed its car around the old tire rule not anticipating the new rule and the cars were worthless this past year.
1/2 way through the year Ferrari got its act together then Schumacher started playing head games with Alonso and the drama was better than any NASCAR race or an entire season. Alonso came unglued blaming his team for failure and eveything else on the face of the earth while MS played games with him on and off the track.
Last years season was probably the best I have seen in the 5 years I have been following closely.
Next year? Eveyone changed teams, one tire supplier, lots of young guns ready to prove they can win. Yeah going to be a great season. Plus no MS to dominate the place so everything is up for grabs.
