Yet with every team eventually expected to fall in line with the FOM/FIA/Ferrari alliance, what will be of Ron Dennis?

After a season in which indisputable on-track brilliance (Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen, occasionally Michael Schumacher) has often been overshadowed by the depressingly ugly spectre of political wrangling (Imola-gate, Indy-gate, Button-gate), at last we have some unequivocally good news.
