I hear BMW is the team to look out for next season as they have the most reliable and consistent KERS system to date. We will see what developes in a few weeks when race 1 starts. It should also be interesting to see some new aero developement as the teams try to find loopholes in the rules. Williams is already working on some vertical fins surrounding the cockpit are.
As for the Ferrari drivers, Kimi is definitely the faster of the two. He just needs to wake up during the races...

Kimi used to be the faster of the two. Massa has taken some huge strides and I'll bet he whoops up on Kimi this year once again. As long as it doesn't rain much.
When Kimi is on kill there is no one fast on the track then him.... but this only seems to happen for about 5 laps per race

11 days and counting !!! 
I can't wait. I am really stoked for this season for some reason. I love Kimi, but i'm really pulling for Kubica this year with that new BMW. I think he's going to be on a lot more podiums.

Oooooooooh! Can't wait .... slicks should make things interesting, do all you guys like the fact that there is only one tire manufacturer or would you like to see more than one tire manufacturer? Like the old days ....

Verdict is in. F1 will adopt the win system. The driver with the most wins in 2009 will be champ. In the event of a tie, points will then be used to crown the champ. What a load of crap. I can see it now...... intentional crash-outs and spins all over the place. Thanks Bernie....

I think someone was looking out for McLaren with the "minor tweak" to the testing rule.
"Teams can also conduct eight one day aerodynamic tests carried out on FIA approved straight line or constant radius sites between 1 January 2009 and the end of the last Event of the 2009 Championship."
Hmmm. Interesting...
