After the much-vaunted budget cap rules were scrapped as part of Formula One's peace deal, Manor Motorsport boss John Booth has admitted that it is too soon to say whether this will affect his plans to enter in 2010.

Despite F1's latest crisis seeming to meet a happy ending last week, there is still a chance of Max Mosley choosing to stand for re-election as FIA president again, according to the head of Spanish motorsport.

As expected by Patty and literally nobody else, an agreement has been reached by the FIA and FOTA over the breakaway crisis. It seems the provisional entry list will stand, while Max won't be running for re-election later in the year.

Max Mosley, unperturbed by F1 gently collapsing around him, has insisted that he has "no option" but to stand for re-election as FIA President, describing in a letter to the FIA members the 'unjustified attack' from the FOTA teams.

In a move that will ruin many a 'farewell Silverstone' feature, the management of the track are confident the British GP will be back at the track in 2010, after Bernie Ecclestone softened his stance with the track over the weekend.

Bernie Ecclestone has said he will not stand to watch F1 "disintegrate" over the current arguments dominating the sport, while Max Mosley has performed a volte-face and dropped the legal action against the breakaway teams.

The breakaway teams have snuffed out the prospect of an early end to the stupidity currently threatening to destroy F1, saying that there was no truth to the rumours that both sides in the conflict were close to resolving their respective issues.

After having their backsides handed to them at their home event by Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull, smug Brawn GP CEO Nick Fry has vowed that the team will be able to bounce back to the front for the next event in Germany.

In the latest part of the KERS experiment's slow crawl into the box marked "Yeah, that wasn't such a good idea really, was it?", BMW Sauber have announced that they have ditched their own battery system entirely.

The fuel load information would have made for terrifying reading for people who weren't Sebastian Vettel after qualifying at Silverstone, as it dawned that the Red Bull man had claimed pole position despite having the heaviest car.
