Tin helmets on...
This is going to make for a lively meeting as some of the bigger teams are opposed to any form of change which they see undermines their advantage. They argue that Mosley cannot change the rules without their agreement.
The problem is that with F1 numbers dwindling the teams are in less of a bargaining position than they may think because it might not be long before there are not enough cars available for them to meet their contractual obligations in the Concorde Agreement.
One way or another we can expect fireworks at today's meeting and these may have long-term implications for the sport not just in terms of new regulations but also to the balance of power that exists today.
