  1. I think Senna is doing a better job than most people are saying. There has been talk of him being replaced, but what has he really done wrong?

    1. I dont think he has done anything wrong, he is doing a better job then Chandhok(which is the only person to compare him with at the moment)and now there are rumors of Chandhok getting replaced, I think its just the media making up stories again.

  2. Here’s a very interesting imaginary championship for the six drivers of the new teams. Cowboy Chandok leads!!
