here are some quotes i pulled out today alone from www.f1-live.com/en if you really still find what i say hard to believe:

taken from http://f1.racing-live.com/en/headlin...27011114.shtml

"Many people blame Bridgestone for the Scuderia's lack of success. Does Jean Todt agree with this opinion ? "You know it would be very unfair to give all credit to one tyre company or to say that it’s because of another tyre company that we don’t do well, because, as I said earlier, we won so many races thanks to them, so you have to see the whole picture. Probably some teams will get some advantage out of it. I think Bridgestone have been focussing more on developing the tyres with us because we are probably more the point of reference for them, and probably the other tyre company has more points of reference. But I don’t want to say that it is an advantage or disadvantage, it’s just like that.""

""Next week we will go to Monza to test a new aerodynamic package and a more powerful engine," confirms Raikkonen. "We really need it because we have more or less the same car since the beginning of the year. The championship remains open even if we shouldn't be at our best at Monza. It wasn't too good for us last year. Nonetheless, we should be fine for Indianapolis and Suzuka.""
