seems like everyone is spending their budget else where and starting to fade away from the racing scene.

Why isn't there an angry mob on RS bashing bmw for making this move?

just like when honda pulled out.

Because C-Lais dont care nemore...

what is a c-lais? Sea lice ? infestation on Salmon?

No one cares about F1 anymore. Bernie ratfucked it beyond repair, and next year we'll see where all the chips fall.

I care. I'm excited for next season, and there are some brilliant young drivers that promise to make for a great 2010 year. Can anyone say "Vettel"?

BMW pulling out is a shame, but not totally unexpected. I'd love to see them continue to be an engine provider though.

That's because there's an official F1 thread and it's been mentioned in this thread already.

Good riddance BMW, they dug their own grave when they insisted on using KERS in 2009 so the teams couldn't reach an unanimous decision to scrap KERS (and now BMW isn't even using it because their cars are slow as hell).

And... Michael Schumacher returning to F1 to drive at the European GP (and possibly for the rest of the season) is more important than BMW pulling out. :D

LOL

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lol:

BMW wasnt doing that great in the F1 league to begin with. Staying in F1 would just do more damage than good

Just another sign of the times.

With news like the first melon of the season going for just $6,000CDN, unemployment in Spain nearing 20%(nice work angry Nissan factory worker mob), etc, etc, its no wonder.

Additionally, an article stating that FIA has been conducting a study on a ubiquitous engine program ranging in output of 200 to 700HP further adds to the direction of everything.

Seems as piss-poor as a Dan Brown language translation. Straight to the garbage bin. Sayanara asshole.

BMW should become a NASCAR supplier!!!

Found my definition of C-lice online:

C-lai
Pronounced "see-lai".

A middle to upper age woman of usually Chinese descent, who has several/all of the following distinctions from regular people:

1. Doesn't have a job, or works in some menial position like housekeeping. Husband brings home the dough.
2. Drives a BMW 7-series, X5, or Mercedes-Benz SL, GL, or ML.
3. Drives 40 km/h down the road, even when everyone is going 60-70.
4. Wears full-length (extending up to elbow) driving gloves on both hands and a welding mask for the face, and for fear of getting skin spots.
5. Puts the driver's seat in the farthest position forward, with the seatback vertical, and still doesn't use the seatback. (ie leans forward, so face is inches from the steering wheel)
6. Hits other cars when parking, and is completely oblivious that she just ran over the hood of the lowered Civic next to her parking spot. Also parks on the lines so that neighbouring drivers cannot even get into their cars.
7. Only goes between the supermarket, home, and the homes of other C-lais to play mah jong.
8. Never smiles, as that creates wrinkles.
I freaked out after seeing the C-lai in the SUV next to me and rear-ended the car in front.

That C-lai dinged my car! wtf
