Having its own F1 team, I thought was a good enough reason
to turn around a midfield package into a consistent podium
finisher?

Worked wonders for Ford with Jaguar.... and Honda are hardly working
wonders since they bought BAR...

Sauber were mediocre when they were the covert Mercedes works team.
Sauber were mediocre (at best) when they were the Ford works team.
Sauber were mediocre when they were the effective Ferrari B team.

Red Bull has gotten better results as the Ferrari customer.

Toyota has had one okey dokey season in an otherwise sterling career
as YAM (yet another midfielder).

How much of an impact do you guys think will Newey make in
the 2007 Red Bull car?

None. He's not driving it, and if he did he'd make quite an impact,
although into what I'm not sure :-)
