Triple-H

Thx M.

Oh, and after lots of thinking here is my group of teams for '06

1- Ferrari
I sure hope Massa is a good teamate for MS, but only time will tell, one thing for sure, the team will clearly be able to focus on MS's needs.

2- Renault
After Flavio talking about retiring las year it is safe to say that plan is now on hold. FA will be a driver, but I really don't know if Flavio is going to keep Fissi, it could be an entertaining silly season.

3- Red Bull Racing and Squadra Toro Rosso (Italian for Team Red Bull)
This was a difficult decision! I have really grown to appreciate DC this year after he was the only one with balls big enough to stand up at Indy and say this was wrong and I was also swayed by the fact that Ferrari will be the engine supplier.

My other choice for #3 was going to be BMW. I have been a huge fan of BMW cars for a very long time, but I have grown to really dislike the grumpy old fart Frank Williams so that has prevented me from being a fan. Now with BMW buying up Sauber and having their own team the time was ripe to become a fan, but alas Squadra Toro Rosso sounds too cool.
