I believe Manchild meant to say that ING doesnt see profit from their sponshorhip of the Renault F1 Team, not a loss from their overall "investing/banking" business.
And because of a loss this year ('07 sponsorhip of Renault F1) they will exit F1, or at least Renault F1, and maybe Renault will have a new race driver (Piquet Jr :wink: ), new car, new main sponsor (replacing ING) and new livery for '08.

Did I re-phrase it better for you guys?
What do you think Manchild?

Hope I cleared it up.

Despite Ferrari's claims, they have not improved enough to close the gap with Mclaren. And it appears BMW progress is really beginning to show definite results. We may applaud Hamilton for his pole, but Heidfeld getting 3rd was just as worthy an accomplishment. This may also signal the first time in a long time where Ferrari cannot be counted as one of the top entries.
Attrition and the curbs will be a large part of the race plot, and many questions will be answered before it is over. Is Ferrari slowly dropping from the top tier, as many predicted in the post - Schumacher era? Will BMW replace them in the top two? Can things get much worse at Toyota, and how long will Ralf last? Where is Kubica? He's dropped into the shadows since Heidfeld found a new pace. Can Sato get more points?
I love F1, so much going on, so much drama, so unpredictable.

maybe a bit offtopic but a few inetresting pics:

Ferrari front rims new 'coolers' shape (again)

is this just me or... it seemes honda moved the exhausts forwards and sideways to hide them 'under the airflow' coming from/above the chimneys. Am I right?

----------------

Again maybe it just seemed so, but...

Alonso acted kinda too cold when Lewis happily bounced out of his cockpit and ran straight towards his teammate to share his joy... Alonso just pushed him away like "okay, congratulations, go now!".

Did the champion 'feel the threat'? :?

he has had an extremly bad race today going off turn 1 three time, unlucky that he pitted just as the pitlane closed, might have run out of fuel if he carried on.
