how fantastic is it to see the so called larger teams like ferrari struggling and some of the so called smaller teams coming good in the season so far.
Looks like ferrari have made a big mistake by not looking at developing the rear diffuser and going with the kers system which has now been dropped for this race at least.
Also fantastic to see another british team 1 and 2 in redbull racing instead of the usual mclaren at the front.
Long may this season continue and lets hope the so called smaller teams continue to push on and show the bigger teams that its not just about reputations.

its nt that smaller teams are bouncing back, its about that senior drivers are performing well with their technics which they have learned in their past..lewis had only two seasons, massa just the same...but rubens, jenson had a long way in f-1..they have had learnt many things from their past..so its the level of the senior drivers who bounce back..
happy to respond..happy mylotting..

yeah the whole standings order has turned upside down sans 1 or 2 teams here and there. and the 2 most notable being ferrari unable to garner a single point even after three races, whereas brawn_gp, the newcomers, so far have had a fairytale opening. standing atop the drivers and constructor standings now they are looking down upon the so called giants of the f1, ferrari and mclaren. well i particularly don't know whether its the mechanics of the new cars and the limitations of the new rules, or just fate that's betraying the former champions. and its really encouraging that the minnows have risen up to the challenge and are here to create a niche of their own. and the last race in china saw a change in the podium with redbull taking over from brawn and still keeping the messiahs of f1 at bay.
