You clearly haven't been paying much attention this year as the rules changes, the emergence of Brawn GP, and the absence (until recently) of McLaren and Ferrari on the podium has made it one of the most exciting seasons in the last few years. Plus last years drivers' championship was decided at the last turn in Brazil. No one except BMW wanted KERS. And the tech that BMW abandoned was directly responsible for the results of the Belgian GP. BMW abandoned KERS for like the 2nd or 3rd start of the season. Guess why? They employ one of the heaviest pilots on the grid. Corporate types shouldn't dictate race strategy for marketing purposes. Otherwise the team spends development efforts on counterproductive tech. I do like ALMS and without Audi, I guess someone else can win this year. The "normal" bimmers that people buy may have higher tech engines but M cars are exciting and without ethusiasts to by them BMW will become the first choice of housewives and little old ladies. Good luck BMW. BTW with the movable front wing introduced this year the driver can change aero at anytime not just between races.

Well I don't feel the need to be a rabid BMW fan just because I own and enjoy some of their products. Next year being a BMW fan in F1 won't be an option. I support another team anyway.

Well according to the drivers, that option really doesnt help in overtake situation which what that adjustable front wing part was designed to do.
