I agree but you are taking a long term look at F1. Ferrari are only thinking about themselves. Until Jean Todt goes I don't think anything will change there.

I think this is one of the reasons the GPWC thing will never work. If it ever gets started and Renault suddenly have a car that is 2 seconds a lap quicker then than Ferrari, BMW etc then they will just block any moves to make changes.

Just hope the FIA force Ferrari to sign the same doc the other 9 teams have.
