As Ferrari sit with poor results , and BGP run ahead , it's becoming more clear to me that Ross was most likely the key to the success of Michael's dream team .
Perhaps they are only just realizing that , as they didn't seem to listen to Ross when he made his remarks about how the area in which the diffuser lies could be an area that teams would exploit if the rules weren't tightened .
That was a year ago , and had they been listening closely , they might have had the run on the rest as well .
Toyota recognized the opportunity , but Ferrari seem to have missed it , strangely , because they , most of all , should know how cagey a player Brawn can be .
It looks to me like Ferrari are regaining the respect for Ross that they should not have lost , but , I think Ross will always be seen in high regard by the Tifosi , for his hard work for the Scuderia .
They will rue the day they lost him , and never regret the day they hired him .

What was the exact reason for Brawn leaving Ferrari? Did he want the role of team principal (which he eventually got at Honda), but Domenicali was chosen over him? Wonder if Luca di Montezemolo regrets that decision now...

As to Ferrari right now, my vote would be neither. Instead
as Plato or Pogo said, "I have met the enemy, and the enemy is us"Only the dead know the end of war. Plato:beer:
Maybe the official coverage didnt make the most of the island and the rally and once again it was other creators who came up with some great footage. Tarmac is a contentious surface for some...
