Is Ferrari On The Way Out?

After the comparitively indifferent showing in the season so far, is it the end of another era for Ferrari?

Whatever, it sure is making the season more interesting this year.

Wow, what a great season! I kind of quit following after Hakkinen left. Not too much competition but this year is pretty exciting. Do you think it's the new rules, or more money going into the other teams?

It's more money. I can see the headlines now

' Russian billionaire buys Minardi. Snaps up all the top drivers and puts Portuguese Team Manager in'

followed by;

' Minardi storm to title taking first and second in every race. Ron Dennis says' Huh. Money buys anything'

Speaking of Ron Dennis, there was a rumour around that he actually smiled after yesterday's race.

Must have been wind, I guess.

It's about time other drivers also get some podiums. I still think Ferrari had a secret advantage that was never figured out by the officials.
