why not? they have a lot in common. they both have been known to blame the team for their lack of performance on occasion. they're both winging little bitches. ect..

i could see vettel becoming all patriotic and going to merc though.

vettel, i really don't think so... kimi, maybe.

i like the black, it looks good nur.

Nico Hulkenberg is to leave Force India and join Sauber next year. And Mexican Esteban Gutierrez, the team's reserve driver, is tipped as a partner for the German, which would leave Kamui Kobayashi without a seat. Mexican Sergio Perez, Kobayashi's team-mate this year, is joining McLaren to replace Mercedes-bound Lewis Hamilton. Ex-Toro Rosso drivers Sebastian Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari are vying with former Force India driver Adrian Sutil to be Hulkenberg's replacement. If he loses the Sauber seat, Kobayashi also has a chance to go to Force India but is likely to have to find some sponsorship to secure the drive. Sauber have not yet officially confirmed Hulkenberg but the deal is understood already to be done. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/19940929 McLaren have revealed that it was an anti-roll bar failure that robbed Lewis Hamilton of his pace in the Korean Grand Prix. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8164317/-Anti-roll-bar-failure-cost-Lewis-

f**k... but it's nice to see romain finish the race.

daniel did end up getting a gearbox penalty btw. not as if it wan't obvious...

Mercedes has been hit with a €10,000 fine for an unsafe release of Michael Schumacher's car during qualifying. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/103397

Professor Park Won-Hwa, who was called in last year to save the Korean GP, says it would be a "huge strategic mistake" to drop the race. In only its third season in Formula One, the South Korean race is once again struggling to attract spectators resulting in yet another financial loss. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8162042/-Huge-mistake-to-drop-Korea-

let me clarify. when the commentators asked kimi if he had walked/driven around the track he said no, when the commentators asked kimi if he had driven around the track in a simulator he said no. blind kimi should be entertaining.

two more.. the celebrity races should be conducted under the rules set out by the WANKR motoring occasion. there should be more close ups of the walk of wimmans, we have a better caliber of wimmans here in aus then our uk masters and we should be doing our best to make them jelly of it.

lol, kimi has never raced this track before guys..

All this talk of next years aus gp has reminded me how bad tens coverage was this year, so should we tell them what we want to see by way of a partition? the first things that came to my head was... banning layne beachley from attending the event and never giving her a mic at a motorsport event ever again (and informing her that a race isn't called a match it's call a race). less interviews with d list celebritys/ people from masterchef and other reality tv stars and more interviews with race car drivers (former or current) and some information/facts about the cars they drove. no more people from the breakfast show (seriously Paul Henry is more then Kochie) wait..... infact you should put paul in a two seat f1 car, the amusement would go some way to make up for the torture we suffered this year. what do you think?

i mid day practice and races. the stream is so much smoother then the afternoon races.

1 and 1/2 hours till p1 boys.

Monisha Kaltenborn has officially become the first female F1 team boss after Peter Sauber handed over the daily running of the Sauber team. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/8157624/Kaltenborn-is-Sauber-s-new-team-boss

Honda is open to the idea of a return to Formula 1 in the future, even though it thinks such a move will not happen in the short-term. The Japanese manufacturer turned its back on the sport at the end of 2008, when a worldwide economic slump left the car company unable to justify the huge investment needed for an F1 project. There have been several rumours since then that Honda could be tempted back - and high-level sources have suggested that informal talks have taken place between the Japanese car maker and the FIA about a future F1 programme. Now, one of its senior figures has admitted that there are grounds for it to consider a return. Yoshiharu Yamamoto, a senior Honda board member who is CEO of Honda R&D, says that he would be keen to get the company back to F1. "I cannot speak for Honda, but on a personal level I love racing, but there is a lot involved when you are in F1," he said in an exclusive interview with AUTOSPORT"s sister publication Autocar. "It is the very top of auto racing and that requires a large commitment. But it is true that we do look up at those races and hope that one day we can take part again. "I do not personally think we can just go straight back immediately, but there is potential for the rules to change and attract us. I follow the rules, certainly, and if they present an opportunity then it would be nice to go back." Yamamoto says that Honda's current international racing efforts will be focused on the World Touring Car Championship – and only once it has started winning should it consider a further ramping up of efforts that could include F1. "The first thing we must do is win in the WTCC, and then perhaps we can look further afield," he said. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/103263 turbo honda? sweet...

lotus have confirmed they will add a Coanda exhaust system at the Korean Grand Prix, but they will not test the double-DRS until after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. http://www.planetf1....-Coanda-exhaust Three-time world champion Sir Jackie Stewart is eager to work with Romain Grosjean and help prevent the accidents that are "jeopardising his career". http://www.bbc.co.uk...rmula1/19889915 for the second time... i wonder if he'll take him up with his offer this time.

Red Bull does not believe the double-DRS it has run since the Singapore Grand Prix has been key to its turnaround in form. Sebastian Vettel put himself firmly back in the hunt for the world championship with victories in Singapore and Japan - as it emerged in Suzuka that the team has followed Mercedes' lead and raced a double-DRS. Unlike the Mercedes version that channels air through a duct to stall the front wing, it is understood that the Red Bull version flows the air to the beam wing to help stall that and the diffuser. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/103227 analysis of it here. http://www.formula1.com/news/technical/2012/878/1012.html
