hi eddie,how much are points worth in cash to a team...cheers.

Eddie Irvine:

A lot. A point can move you up a place in the constructors’ championship which can be worth several million dollars.

Hi Eddie, after McClarens financial penalty and BMW's improved commitment to F1 and their subsequent pace, does BMW really stand a chance of replacing McClaren as the Ferraris chief opposition?

Eddie Irvine:

I think to overtake them is asking too much but to do battle withy them at certain races is very possible. They have to replace Heidfeld with someone like Alonso and then they have a serious team.

hello eddie your my hero do you think lewis hamilton will make to number one in the world cheers eddie

Eddie Irvine:

Thanks. I think he probably will because I think the Ferrari drivers are going to take points off each other and Lewis will do all the winning for McLaren.
