Your conclusion is too far fetched,too early and based on no knowledge of F1 cars & their development.The intensions are in the right direction.
1)Commited investment over a period 2)No unnecessary patriotic feeling and consequent insertion of below par Karthi or Karan 3)"Interim" car to fill for the coming season and a permanant engine for season next is the right way to proceed 4) Experienced & "stable" driver like Fisi is the best way to build a reliable car and not rough handlers ike Montoyo, Kimi or Karthi
