Scrapping the car? Give it to me, I'll drive it to and from school in it.

I'm a McLaren fan and agree, they should mod it but not waste too much time an effort on this car, it's a stinker but saying that Ferrari has managed to become very competitive again.... It's good this year has been a shake up but the FIA need to make sure the rules are 100% clear, i'm now hoping Button wins the title but not without a fight

I agree somewhat that focusing on next year's car does make sense. However, looking at Ferarri's recent improvements shows that they've pinpointed the problem areas of their 2009 car and know what changes are needed to be competitive again. So what guarantees McLaren will have a winning car next year if they don't know how to fix this year's car at this point?

so, from now on this will happen every season ? if one team has some early wins , the other teams will give up ? why not make 5 race seasons then ?
