Breakaway series is go!

5 hours ago when I woke up and had a look up here to see on any development, and read the thread on the FOTA compromise, I though to myself "Geez this seemed good but all this was all a crappy little publicity stunt and everyone will back down and kiss Mister Max's you-know-what."
Now this is good news, but I think something bad may come of this.

Mister Max and Mister Midget will sue the teams, and in the end each other. And in the end will probably end as a catastrophic mess for all involved. But hopefully it won't.

Let FIA run their spec series, and let have FOTA have their own.

Mister Max telling FOTA to start their own series... Could that be used in a legal context?

(ioan for FOTA chairman!! :) )

I wish them well. But I think that eventually politics will screw them up, just as politics screwed F1.

The best part is that the series will be Free to AIr. so i expect atleast 3-4 channels to broadcast it live, like MOTO GP

No more listening to Steve Slater, ALex Young and chirs goodwin next year :)

By the way we can see alex young , narian kartikeyan. sato, all next year

OMG, they did it!!!

This is gonna get sooooo messy!

My main fear is how will TV coverage be for the new series?

Will Bridgestone be allowed to supply the FOTA series or is their deal F1 only?

Will this now just cause a flurry of activity which means a compromise will have to hbe reached before the end of the year to prevent a breakaway occuring???

If more new teams are granted entried however, I cant see how it can otherwise well have 16 odd teams????

WOW!! This is historic. Finally Mosley is dumped. I bet you Bernie wont be happy. He'll have to split his revenue with FOTA. I for one, can't wait for the beginning of the new champioship. I bet you it will be revolutionary. F1 will be back again to be the most sofisticated, technological advanced and challenging car racing ever. For those who like to watch the Campos team and hear the glorious Cosworth engines, I wish them a "really" good time in the memory lane. I bet you any money, in no time, without the most prestigious teams in its ranks, FIA will go down the drain.

Yay! If for no other reason the Mosley gets his due. He's run amok and it's finally come home to roost.

Contrary to claims here, the new series will NOT be Powered by Cosworth!! :p :

Having said that and on the more serious side, I just wonder whether this will save Silverstone as a venue for next year's FOTA championship's British race.

More to follow.
