Alice may not be providing the same amount of money Vodafone was sponsoring. But hey, Ferrari will never have trouble finding sponsors anyways.

As for Rossi, I guess he just wanna keep enjoying his wins in MotoGP rather than having to do it all over again in F1 and baring the risk of being critized.

From 2008, just six of the 12 Formula One teams will have voting rights as part of the Formula One Commission, the FIA announced on Wednesday. The move, which leaves big names such as McLaren and Toyota without a vote, is part of an overhaul designed to simplify major decision making within the sport.

The Formula One Commission is responsible for approving any changes to the sporting and technical regulations proposed by the Sporting and Technical Working Groups (both of which include senior members from all teams), and then putting them forward to the FIA’s World Motor Sport Council for ratification.

In the past, all of the teams have had voting rights, along with engine suppliers, tyre manufacturers, race promoters, key sponsors. However, following the changes announced on Wednesday, just six teams - each from a different country - will have a say, along with five race promoters, plus a representative each from Formula One racing’s commercial rights holder and the FIA.

The full list of those elected on to the 2008 Commission following a vote of the FIA World Motor Sport Council is as follows:

Teams:
Austria - Red Bull Racing
France - Renault
Germany - BMW Sauber
Italy - Ferrari
Japan - Honda
United Kingdom - Williams

Race promoters:
Australian Grand Prix
Brazilian Grand Prix
Hungarian Grand Prix
Monaco Grand Prix
Spanish Grand Prix

It does sound unfair, doesn't it?

Anyone got news on that rumored Mediterranean GP? I heard that Paul Ricard could host a GP...possibly.

This is absolute bull. McLaren is one of the longest existing teams in the F1, and they can't vote only because their headquarter happens to be in the UK together with some other teams. They can't justify that.

I think every team must keep the right to vote, and not half the teams.

^^ cus he sucks Flavio's dick harder than anyone before him...and he already had a fued with Rossi previously

Its sad to think that Rossi feels that away about F1, but he is right. All the electronics they put on to control everything just makes it boring. I hope F1 goes back to no TC, if that happens then we shall see who the real champ is, and it def. would not be Alonso...TC chimes in more times on his car than a phillipino prostitute on duty.
