Anyone else think that this might lead to more Ferrari tantrums next season?

Very intriguing.

I think we are going to see some very interesting driver line ups for next year, at the moment I think they are all just waiting to see who'll blink first.

will the FIA be checking the Hondas for signs of Ferrari technology?

Given that Ross shouldn't have any knowledge later than the initial configuration of the 2007 Ferrari, I don't think the FIA will be too bothered. OTOH it would be a major step forward from the 2007 Honda!

.... although, it could take a while for the Brawn effect to make any difference given that they say that the 2008 Honda has already been designed I still cannot believe how shoddy Honda have been given their resources and I would assume that Brawn has made sure that he can keep development etc in his control rather than have interference from Japan as has been the case recently. Although i'm a Ferrari fan, I also hope this means that another team might start to challenge at the top - F1 needs as many competitive teams as possible and a company like Honda should be able to produce a decent outfit given their money and engineering abilities .

will the FIA be checking the Hondas for signs of Ferrari technology?

No, but they think they've been copying Spyker, Torro Roso ans Super Aguri - so expect a raid soon.

So, Brawn is 'Ferrari through and through' eh?

Bit of a step down for a company car...

Bet Jenson Button wishes he hadn’t said he would quit Honda if it didn’t improve in the 2008 season. Brawns input wont be really felt till 2009 I bet.

I would love to see JB get a world class car under him

So now all Honda will need will be Brains and they'll have it all, unlike the Leicester Tigers at the weekend who seemed to lack both.
