I don't think they are allowed to use the name "Formula One".

Brawn GP isn't so bad. Most owners name the team after them.

Hope they won't fight for the last place too.

The new team has a lot of history. Does anyone know what remains of the original Tyrrell staff, if any? And what happened to the old Tyrrell facilities when the headquarters moved to Brackley when B.A.R. took over?

There's something about the BAR/Honda team in Autosport, but basically, BAR just bought the Tyrrell entry, but I don't think they ever made much use of much of the other stuff. A lot of the Tyrrell team actually then went to work on the stillborn Honda team in 1999.

Very, very nice car. Hoping the lack of testing won't hurt them too badly.

I wonder how strong they will be.
They are powered by Mercedes, so maybe they can pull a "Vettel@Monza08" when the circumstances are right...

The right circumstances would be an 18 car pile-up at the first corner.

We managed 9 at Melbourne 7 years ago, so what'd be so hard about doubling the number?

That was only 2 cars.

The bulk of the shenanigans was caused by Massa grasstracking and failing to understand the concept of reduced grip whilst at it.

He'll likely be further up tthe grid this year, so more cars to involve.

I believe that the car in 2nd place heading towards the moon caused a chain reaction down the field.

If you look closely at one of the head on stills of that crash, half the field is watching Ralf in the air insted of the apex..so i agree with ryan here ralf caused the chain reaction.
