F1 update
Some news ahead of the inaugural Shanghai Formula 1 Grand Prix this weekend. Earlier this week, Fiat-owned Jaguar have said that they will not be participating in F1 beyond this season. Jaguar driver Mark Webber has already been pencilled into BMW Williams driver lineup for next season while co-driver Christian Klien's future is still up in the air.
Also, with the impending sale of engine maker Cosworth, there is also speculation that it may also lead to the pull-out of both Jordan and Minardi, who both have been struggling the past few seasons. Since an agreement in Formula 1 stipulates there have to be at least 20 cars on the grid to have a legit race, there have been suggestions of other financially stable teams of fielding 3 cars instead of two. Heck, imagine three scarlet Ferraris in a single race... I'd be having nightmares if I was driving for one of the other teams.
