All things considered, its still competition. Each team is ready to drive their hearts out. If Ferrari doing well at Monza means they've made an exception, somethings not right. I can't see Ferrari making a special case to win. _J
I would say they simply try somewhat harder and also know probably a little more about the track than the opposition does. Wish they would try that hard all the time, just as I wish Mark's starts were always as good as his Silverstone start was ... Pete
No doubt those are the salient factors. Or maybe its just "Home Field Advantage". In any case I think its unwise to view it as a sure sign of things to come. More interesting is if the Red Bulls have just hit a stretch of tracks that don't favor their cars or if the rest of the field has caught up development wise. Either way they've been a bit fragile all season.
