other teams can always upgrade other parts of the car...engine power isn't the only difference between each and every team on the track isn't it?

Max could be saying that in a general manner. Of course Ferrari is an important team...but so is McLaren and a few other teams. Because they're in the sport for so many years. They're an icon in and outside the sport. As for newer teams such as Toyota, Red Bull, Torro Roso, Spyker/Force India...of course no special relationship has been made yet. Give it a few more years and if they succeed, Max would be saying the same thing about them.

you're spot on smile.gif engine is one part of the equation of an F1 car.

As for newer team :

Toyota- a new team
Redbull << Jaguar << Stewart
Torro Rosso << Minardi
Force India << Spyker << Midland F1 << Jordan

By the time the other teams manage to be successful, Max Mosley already retired or dead.. biggrin.gif Seriously, I am not saying that other teams wont be successful. It takes more than success to get special relationship with Mr Mosley. Need some people like Luca Cordero di Montezemolo. Need some good old years of relationship too.. There is always something happening within he himself. He can say anything he wants but no one will ever know what he is thinking.

Jean Todt, Max, Ron Dennis, I think they were all involved in car racing before they became managers, right?

Not sure what is it, if not mistaken, some top people in F1 were once a race driver them self?

BMW!!! icon_idea.gif
QUOTE
The Megatron engine was the name of a rebadged 1500 cm³ 4-cylinder BMW turbocharged Formula One motor that powered the Arrows team for the 1987 and 1988 seasons, as well as Ligier for 1987 only.

Its name derived from a subsidiary of United States Fidelity and Guaranty Insurance, Megatron, Inc., founded by long-time F1 aficionado John J. Schmidt, who coined the phrase "Horse racing may have been the sport of kings, but auto racing is the sport of corporations". USF&G was the primary sponsor for the Arrows team and the financier of the engine project. The Megatron programme ended as a result of a change of Formula 1 engine rules which banned turbocharged motors at the end of 1988. The Arrows team reverted to using 3500cm³ Ford-Cosworth V8 normally aspirated powerplants for the 1989 season.
