I'm sure there cars weren't up to snuff this year but last year they were keeping up and sometimes even beat the factory Hondas. I'm just sad this continues to happen to the small teams and the only way out it seems is to go to bed with a car manufacturer just like Sauber did a few years back. How many people remember Jordan F1 which is now Force India, how about Stewart Racing? which was bought by Ford and turned into Jaguar F1 and I've lost track who they are now, Minardi F1? Lotus F1? Tyrell? Ligier?

In 1987 there were roughly 14 teams in F1 20 years later there are 10 and with Torro Rosso facing the Axe as well I think F1 will be down to 9 teams in 2009. Even Ferrari started as a privateer after he split from Alfa Romeo's team and had to start selling road cars only to fuel his addiction to racing, I doubt Enzo would last long in todays F1 if he were to start from scratch.
