"i hope vw enter and general motors but dont think they will."

True, Audi (VW) and Chevrolet(GM) would make great additions.

Well It´s all only blackmailing from one side to the other and around again... The Teams want other rules (remember that 5 year engine rule)... And every comment like the one of Toyota is meant to get FIA into the position where the manufacturers want it.
So does the FIA with their statements. It´s all big childs play

But it surely is ironic that Toyota, the less competitive team considered on their budget, is the one that starts to bark. They´d better do what has been mentioned before...GET IT WORKING OR SHUT THE F*** UP

PS: and why do u think a KIA powered car wouldnt get out of pits?... At least I agree as it won´t be a KIA powered car, as KIA is just a part of the HYUNDAI motors group, and the car would have a big fat HYUNDAI batch on it. And I don´t think it is unlikely to see HYUNDAI in F1 one day. They r the 7th biggest car company, they tried to set a contract with IRL last year as their engine supplier, and they have sh*tloads of money ...so why shouldnt they try it one day (even Yamaha once was in F1....although i dont remember if they build the engine or just batched an engine of bryan hart or someone else )

mmm VW doesnt have enough

----------------------------

Just note USA doesn't like F1 (since 1981)

Hungarian GP, 1997. Last laps just when damon's problems had just begun:
(Louise Goodman has just reported that Damon Hill was on the radio with Tom Walkinshaw)
Murray: "How do they do that, Martin? How does a man talk calmly and especially to his team boss, when Damon in the situation he's in?"
Martin: "Well, you press a little button on the steering wheel and start talking, Murray. There's a little speaker in the front of your crash helmet...";)
(excerpted from the "Brundle's Quote Central")
