If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

Well the large tank of gas can still play havoc with the design, since we are talking about something that'll take up 3 times more space(and weight) than it used to, stuff gets moved around and your tire wear will be affected quite a lot....on top of the fuel economy issue that I am pretty sure some are worse than others....

IIRC the size of the fuel tank with be double than what the average team had this year. Basically all of them could already make half a GP without refueling if not even more.
That's a lot of stuff nonetheless, but I agree with Wouter. Even if these changes could favorite certain designs and teams, there shouldn't be a performance difference as large as there was at the beginning of this year and so large to help a team with less updates than the competitors to still grab both titles.

For Wouter Melissen and others who might be a bit confused as to who has been signed for what team, the following is a complete list of all the confirmed entrants of 2010.
Interesting facts:Code:No. (Confirmed 2010 Drivers) Driver Constructor 1 Jenson Button Vodafone McLaren Mercedes 2 Lewis Hamilton Vodafone McLaren Mercedes 3 Nico Rosberg Mercedes Grand Prix 4 - Unconfirmed - Mercedes Grand Prix 5 Sebastian Vettel Red Bull Racing 6 Mark Webber Red Bull Racing 7 Felipe Massa Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro 8 Fernando Alonso Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro 9 Rubens Barrichello AT&T Williams 10 Nicolas Hülkenberg AT&T Williams 11 Robert Kubica Renault F1 Team 12 - Unconfirmed - Renault F1 Team 14 Adrian Sutil Force India F1 Team 15 Vitantonio Liuzzi Force India F1 Team 16 Sébastien Buemi Scuderia Toro Rosso 17 - Unconfirmed - Scuderia Toro Rosso 18 Jarno Trulli Lotus F1 Racing 19 Heikki Kovalainen Lotus F1 Racing 20 - Unconfirmed - Campos Meta 1 21 Bruno Senna Campos Meta 1 22 - Unconfirmed - Team USF1 23 - Unconfirmed - Team USF1 24 Timo Glock Virgin Racing 25 Lucas di Grassi Virgin Racing TBA Kamui Kobayashi Team Sauber F1 TBA - Unconfirmed - Team Sauber F1
- Out of the 19 drivers confirmed so far, only 6 of them will begin the 2010 season where they started the 2009 season. This means that about 70% of the confirmed drivers for 2010 are new to the team they will drive for, or joined them mid-season 2009.
- So far, we have three confirmed drivers who have never participated in a Grand Prix before, and an additional driver who has completed less than one season. This means that about 15% (21% with Alguersuari) are rookies, if counting only the confirmed drivers.
- Out of 13 teams competing in 2010, only one of them will feature the same two drivers they did at the start of 2009, Red Bull. However, both Toro Rosso and Force India finished the 2009 season with the drivers they are (likely) to race with in 2010

I doubt a half-worthy driver like Trulli would still be around if there was proper testing to develop pilots and cars. Kovalainen is at least much younger.
As for the point system, it changes very little. Nobody will admit it, but the real reason behind it was to get us interested over battles for 8th, 9th and 10th once the leaders become too spread appart. Now, if the FIA had not placed its head up its ass and overruled double diffusers once and for good when they had the chance...
Would it be possible, to play forever?
The conclusion reached was that a player is inevitably doomed to lose.

Apparently Mr Montezemolo has some weird fetish about brothers, this isn't the first time.
Maybe the translator did not get the sarcasm ...
