Baby class indeed!
I feel old suddenly.
What a shame that Mario Theissen had decided to leave. I am still gutted about the fact that BMW has retired from F1. They could have won a title had they pursued their technical development on the car. But I guess it's just not possible nowadays with the financial crisis.
