No I dont see how meaningless they are. You quote Zetsche saying they must win or else, yet you bury the idea that anything Brawn says is valid.(hypocritical in extremis)
Well I tell you what, segedunum. You keep your fancy idea idea that Mercedes bought the team twice(criminally the first time as they hid it from everyone apart from you and X)and that everytime the team has an issue you laugh at them(poor, even for one with an agenda).
And I know its hard, but do you have anything good to say about the team?
You can sit in your ivory tower and fling mud, but it means nothing to anyone here who actually cares to learn somthing.
I'll tell you why, you dont put forward constructive ideas. You care more in engaging debate with outlandish conspiracy theories that are unfounded.

You havent even acknowledged that they actually stretched their lead over Renault.
5 races to go and 31 points the difference.

Good luck with your "Renault WILL beat mercedes GP" prediction.

Finally, while its been a good excercise in time wasting, I will take Tomba's advice and no longer activley engage in debate with you, as evidently, it isnt to the benefit of this thread.
More could have been done.

Because we'll see what happens at the end of the season and what they can get out of Petrov. I notice you don't credit to Renault with the improvements they've made when they almost failed to exist and simply had to evolve a dog of a car from last season. They didn't have any 12 month period where this year's car was 'born' and had key concepts given to them. Given what they've achieved over the past ten years guess what the smart bet is?

But there's little need to stop the MGP-bashing just beacause you two give it up, my magic-drum can indeed see MS and RB buying the team from Daimler. Problem seems to be that both likes to spend money, lots of it, preferably not their own.

They will be stuck with Renault power however, which is not such a bad deal after all, but who's going to pay for the show? MS might convince Petronas, Allianz and Deutche Post to stay with them?

Given the strangeness surrounding Schumacher for next year which I didn't expect, you might well be on to something. I wonder if Daimler will pump in 100 million as a goodwill gesture as Honda did!

No problem, the 100 mill from Honda is probably still sitting in a Jersey-account, just pass them over?

I can bring a blonde or three JET, settle for a compromise there is it?

Btw, the 2011 Schumacher/Brawn-Renault doesn't count, right?

There are reports that Adrian Sutil is in line for Schumi's seat, if and when he retires this year. As there are "big advances" promised for Singapore, Schumi will possibly wait for a race or two to make a final decision.

Every report I have read has been about a refinement to the blown diffuser. Brawn and Haug have both come out and said they hoped for top 10 qualifying and a points finish.

Not one has mentioned "big advances", just thought I would balance things for the benefit of all others.
