Up until last week, BMW were sitting in second place in the constructors table, but with recent form being slightly dire, the points have started to dry up.
So again we have another team in limbo. What do we, the fans, think? Are the boys at BMW going to have a strong finish and give us that fight we want, or will they pick up on 2009 development and write this year off?
Renault
This is a difficult one to judge with Renault, because they are touch and go and have been all season.
We have Fernando who blows hot and cold, finishing behind the rookie one week and the next week putting in an amazing display to fend off the Ferrari of Kimi Raikkonen for 75 percent of a race in a technically slower car.
Young Piquet is now starting to find his feet and some form, so are the boys in the R28’s going to start pulling their weight and churning out some results for big Flava Flav?
I think they have to prove themselves in the light of the recent form that Toyota has found if they want to be kings of the midfield, because right now they are playing second fiddle.
Toyota
Toyota are looking pretty good right now. They have been churning out some great results. Glock’s first podium in Hungaroring was nothing short of astonishing, and it made himself out to be many people’s driver of the day, including mine, I may add.
Meanwhile, Trulli IS Mr. Consistent and has only been out of the points on three occasions this season, putting him nicely in the top seven drivers. That is a great result so far for Toyota, I am sure most will agree.
They don’t seem to have been developing the car as much as other teams, although they did introduce the anvil/shark fin engine cover for Round 11 in Hungary.
It seemed to have worked a treat because the Toyota defied all odds and finished up on the second step of the podium. It was nothing short of an inspired drive by Glock, and this has no doubt contributed to the good news that he will be staying on at Toyota for the 2009 season (allegedly).
Can the consistent form be continued on into the latter part of the season, thus FINALLY
