    How much of the Cosworth stuff happened before the FIA vote? A quick read of the reports seems to indicate that most, if not all, happened in the run-up to the show down with Max ands was an attempt by him to solidify his position. If so is it still much of a concern?
    Excuse the question but I'm more than a bit confused at this point:)

    The current FOTA teams should be concerned as I believe Ford engines have had the most wins in F1 history...

    The Ferrari team leads over Ford as the most successful F1 engine manufacturer with 182 wins compared to Ford’s 176 wins.

    And Ford has absolutely nothing to do with Cosworth anymore.....And never did have much in the past.

    +1 It was labelled Ford in the "early days", they did put up the initial money after all. But even that eventually went away. Eddie Irvine was quoted recently in Forza saying Ford (Jaguar) were the absolute worst race team he ever had the misfortune to drive for - He basically said they were a bunch of complete idiots with too many bosses who didn't know anything about anything......

    Cheers,
    Ian

    I really hope so, if not lets hope the rejected teams that refused to run Cosworth pursue the matter.

    Really is there anymore proof needed that Mosley is a stinking lying corrupt scum dickator.. How stupid must he think folk are not to see through him.
