Sauber are a team with limited budget & they had a great exhaust yet they have gone for the Mclaren one putting their small manpower,resource & money into it. Now Mclaren,Force India,Ferarri,Toro Rosso,Carteham,Sauber all run these exhausts.
nope, Caterahm tried Mclaren solution but now reverted back to their old solution

we can divide into group

Mclaren style >> Mclaren,Force India,Ferarri,Toro Rosso,Sauber

Sauber style >> Carteham, RBR

Merc style >> Mercedes, Lotus, Williams

Now lets see which group has had more wins and more podiums and more consistant??
I will go with the 3rd group

I have to agree that the team's transformation to a regular front-runner this season is amazing, wonder how much of that is due to the advent of Bell and Willis, I guess we will never know?

As for Costa's input, I'm not so sure.

With all respect to the forum rules and mister R Leeds..

Come on, how can you miscalculate the Finish of Q3. This ain't bad luck anymore for Schumacher. I think it hast been bad luck at all since the start of the season.

Joust the next f@#$up by his so called racing team.
Ross : "This worked well for Nico, who set his fastest time of the session, but we mismanaged Michael's run and lost too much time while looking for a gap in the traffic. He crossed the line 0.04s too late!"

and this after Brawn stated last race weekend:We have to make sure to not let him down starting in Canada...that worked out perfectly ..NOT as it was the first opportunity to let him down... :roll:
Well at least Schu can claim he has made the most of it if he bags more than a few points tomorrow..Hopefully he will at least beat Nico.

I don't want to blame the team, but I'm finding it difficult not to. It's becoming nothing short of a farce.

All those big names -Jock Clear,Andy shovlin to name just two and they MISJUDGE the time available? I ´d say there´s something seriously wrong having well seasoned cracks at the pitwall and getting the most basic things wrong and coming up with uninspired strategies week after week.. I´m utterly disappointed with the team effort .Profanities yes ...but frustrating as it is.

Hell, even I'm getting annoyed at this point. Come on Merc, find the weak link and do what Ferrari would do. (We need an axe emoticon.)

MSC: " I don't really know how we managed not to make it over the line early enough to start the second lap but, when I passed the line, the team told me it was too late. "

Brawn: "but we mismanaged Michael's run and lost too much time while looking for a gap in the traffic. He therefore crossed the line 0.04s after the chequered flag came out, and was unable to complete his final lap - although he had set his best first sector time before he backed off."

For crying out loud... I am getting fed up with this. Who is the horse's ass that runs MSC strategy? If it is not in the race, it is in qualy. And this is the second screw up (Bahrain was first, when he was out, supposedly, because of a malfunctioning DRS).

This is getting ridiculous...
