We should have 11 teams in 2006!

The current 10 teams have today all agreed that Super Aguri should be allowed to compete in the 2006 F1 Championship. All thats left now is for the FIA to approve. The team are expected to sign Sato once the FIA agree.

I expect a few fireworks to be flying between Raikkonen and Montoya next season, which could easily work out in a good way for McLaren. 2 very determined drivers should lead to plenty of points.

I find it a bit weird that they already announced that Alonso will go to McLaren in 2007.

Have they already made up their mind who has to leave at the end of next year? Why couldn't this wait 'till the end of 2006?

And will it effect Alonso's motivation?

Alonso and Renault have already declared that it won't affect his concentration over the coming season. I believe he's mentally strong enough to not let it affect his racing, but I don't see any benefits from annoucning this already..
