Back on Track

I know it's almost the end of fricken March, but Happy New Year to ya'll.
It's taken me a while to get back on here but FINALLY the new season is upon us and it's time to crank up the No 1 spot on the internet for the completely star struck ramblings of an F1 obsessive again.

Oh. My. God!!
Round 1 is this weekend... and can I just say that 2009 is already shaping up to be one of the most exciting seasons in years.

Radically changed design regulations have resulted in all the teams going back to the drawing board and launching brand spanking new runners for this season. There's been a lot of talk about leveling the playing field... of course, for the most part, we know that just aint gonna happen, but there have definitely been some surprises so far... who the hell is Ross Brawn anyway?! ;-p

The World Economic Crisis is in full swing but thankfully only Honda pulled out of F1 during the off season. In that respect it will be a long year for some teams as they try to attract major sponsors for 2010 and onwards. And one also has to wonder whether there will be as much Cristal and bling at this year's Monaco GP.

OK, so enough with the intro's... you know all that already.
Let's get the show on the road with my overview of the teams and an opening prediction based on pre-season testing.
