The Good -
- Ferrari and Mcaren making space at the front of the grid allowing other drivers/teams to feature
- KERS, it's not been the easiest new technology into the arena, but it is good technology and 2nd half season has shown that it can work, down the road
- Bernie losing credability, with everyone
- Max stepping back
- Better consistancy of race stewardship
The Bad -
- Aero developemnts did nothing to help passing
- Scandals on scandals, egos, bias, lying, cheating. Basically complete lack of management other than by the media
- Still got inconsistence in application of the rules
- KERS not being ready, therefore a useable version as a base not being generally available
- Dumb tyre rules
- Engine, Gearbox, Rev Limits, no leeway in total weights. We already have a single make series with these restrictions, it's too tight, why not a facial hair rule?
- Bernie still there
- Max still there
- Series planned around a cheque book rather than racing
The Ugly -
- The FIA courts. Private courts, are they serious? Why bother?
- Briatore, no list of ugly is complete without him
- Johnathon Legard, please, no more!
- 2010 plans, still not enough flexibility for the teams with no indications that the FIA want F1 to be genuinely cutting edge and open
