I can't say I'm all too happy, but still, the team will be in capable hands!

They've completely messed up the points system in f1 09. I think this year is going be very bad for it. We may not see F1 in 2010.

no it's not official yet, and i doubt that they can change the scoring system so close to the start of the season. |

Bets in for Melbourne.
18 cars start, fewer than ever before will finish.

i think that this year with all the new regulations, a driver's car development skills are more critical than ever for the team's success. everyone starts from a clean slate with new tires, aero and KERS, and development time is really limited from now until the first GP in melbourne. once the season starts, no testing is allowed.
as i said, driver skills, i.e. analysis, inputs and feedback are especially critical this year. and as a development driver, nobody is better than alonso right now...
