Of course to make it fair to those who do not change, make it cost say 5% of team points earned to that point in the game.

this would make ik to easy because you could change your team after each race depending on the results. Dont think you need to be able to change your team, you should have picked a good on in the first place ;). Besides its jsut for fun and you can change it after the seasons is over
David Coulthard is the best !!!!!

My suggestion your chassis and engine are the same, but you can change one driver at the half-way point. I am not in favour of a lot of trades because at the end somebody who is not winning might trade some good stuff to another guy and stack his picks. Hence the one trade but I love that Ted68 came up with acouple of good suggestions. Bravo Fantastico Teddy :)
Simon: Nils? You can close in now. Nils?
John McClane: [on the guard's phone] Attention! Attention! Nils is dead! I repeat, Nils is dead, ----head. So's his pal, and those four guys from the East German All-Stars, your boys at the bank? They're gonna be a little late.
Simon: [on the phone] John... in the back of the truck you're driving, there's $13 billon dollars worth in gold bullion. I wonder would a deal be out of the question?
John McClane: [on the phone] Yeah, I got a deal for you. Come out from that rock you're hiding under, and I'll drive this truck up your ass.

I'm worried that we're turning into a group of Max Mosely's. The game is fine so far, give it a season before making drastic changes.

Exactly! Which is why I will not be changing even if given the chance to do so. :P

No team changing lol... Tom's right, give it at least a season before we make any drastic changes.

Well, Bernifer has spoken. But should we really let the fact that he is totally correct stand in the way of the Grand Prix tradition of rules arguing for no apparent reason from the outset of the first race? Perhaps instead at mid-season we could consider forming a rival series.

As for the comparison to a 'Little Max Moseley', I see myself more as an Eddie Jordan with less sobriety.

Perhaps we should all sign the concorde agreement.

Press statement from Saw Squad team principle sawtooth spike:
We are looking forward to this race weekend, alot of work has gone into the chassis and engine, and 2 of the drivers are feeling confidant. Scott speed however told me "he was going to go ***king fast" the other day so i chose to fine him £1000 for his use of language, the conversation then took a turn for the worst and scott and myself now owe each other about £35000.

Just to put pay to the story about kimi going to ferrari next season, i would like to now anounce that kimi will be driving for the saw squad next year as test driver.
:wink:
I believe in the chain of command, Its the chain I use to beat you till you do what i want!!!

Rhode Island Red Racing is confident after a reacent managment take over by TDM (Tom Dawson Motorsport) where the company will retain its current name until 2007.

All three drivers felt the car performed well although both David and Nikko reported a lack of grip in their tyres. The drivers all qualified heavy (Ide has almost enough fuel to avoid pitting) so their grid slots do not provide a realistic reflection of race speed.

We are aiming for the podium.

Rhode Island Red Racing Imola Report:

Roseburg and Fisichella gave it their all from the start but neither could find a rhythm in the race. Ide was unlucky to suffer front suspension damage on lap one after Albers MF1 car cut across his front into Villenurve, however he returned to provide valuable data for the team and finished 39 laps down. Roseburg 11th. Giancarlo got a point for 8th.

Apologies for yesterdays announcment. David Coulthard does not drive for our team (I think) the name was meant to be Giancarlo.

Two things:

1. I am currently at my girlfriends house and have only JUST watched the GP (I work from 10-5 so I have to record it and watch it later :( ) So I will get the results for the game up and running as soon as possible!

2. Bhaisaab F1 race comments:

"We are very pleased with the reliability of both our chassis and engine which is a definate positive, after all we have to finish the races to score pionts. With regards race pace we are still a bit bit off the pace, with our drivers reporting some persistant graining from the front tyres. We hope to have this solved by the next race however after an extensive test at Silverstone next week"
