   Has anyone heard any more about who’s supplying engines to who in ’09. Rumour is Force India is gonna have Merc’s. Are Red Bull sticking with this years suppliers again for their two teams? Is Williams staying with BMW?

     If you believe the rumours, Alonso is waiting for the Ferrari seat that will no doubt become available if Raikonnen has a similar year to last… or Massa a similar year to 2007.

     Although I am not a Ferrari fan, I would love to see both those drivers actually on top form at the same time. While they would not be allowed to race each other properly, it would be an exciting season if they were.

   Mallenz – A bigger team? Renault’s budget is definitely in the same ballpark as the top teams – they are a manufacturer, after all: F1 teams’ budgets.

   Keith, I agree, but this year Renault was not even close to the championship.

   I’ve never seen such stability in F1: one driver retiring, one moving up(!?), one vacant seat. Who will fill Vettel’s seat at Toro Rosso? Will Vettel outqualify Webber? Who will be the preseason #1 at Ferrari? Can’t wait for ’09!

   Don’t think there are that many overated drivers in F1, although I do feel that Nick Heidfeld certanly holds his spot due to nationality, and Sutil would proberbly not be in F1 had he not been german. This is often said about Japanese drivers, but never about european drivers, why is that? Why do you think Williams had German drivers troughout there whole collaboration with BMW? Now when they are with toyota everyone is pointing there fingers at Kazuki, although a think is doing a good job for a rookie.
   Di Grassi was great to watch in GP2, I would put him in a racecar anyday of the week ahead of Grosjean, Buemi and Senna for that matter. Although a think Senna sould have drive as well….

     Hopefully Damon Hill will NEVER come back – he was truly dull and uninteresting as a driver and personality! Now Schumacher, that’s a different thing altogether as he was (and still is) absolutely amazing…… would love to see him come back and whoop everyone else’s butts sometime soon!

   noua masina de formula 1 s-a numit NEWMAN FORD este facut de paul newman din anul 2000 deci culoarea rosie si verde piloti sunt michael klein din germania origine romana si Roberto Moreno din brazilia daca sunt participanti nou sezon.

      “To be confirmed” – i.e. we don’t know what’s going to happen to them or Honda. Fingers crossed though.
