Driver Most Likely To Be Replaced Before The End Of The Season

1. Heiki Kovalainen

2. Adrian Sutil

3. Alex Wurz

4. David Coulthard

Whingey B'stard of the Race

1. Jenson Button ("my car's cr*p")

2. Flavio Briatore ("my driver's cr*p")

3. Ron Dennis ("BMW made a cr*p tyre choice")

Interesting comments.

I can't see DC being replaced, not from a team as big as RBR. I also think it's great that Button spoke out and said the truth about his Team, Honda has done zero for his career.

I cant see Kovalainen getting bounced... Flav will still piss Fisi off and make room for Piquet in '08

[djr81]

You reckon Renault would put up with two years of crap results?

I can see Piquet jnr replacing Kovalainen is he doesn't perform during the year.

[ctjet]

No they wont... but i also think Kovalainen will improve exponentially during the year. Last week was a bit of nerves on a new track in his first race. He'll get the get of it, he's Finnish.

Fisi will continue to produce the same mediocre results all year, much like he does every year.... God i cant stand him and his bullshit. Did you see the sunnies he wore the whole time he was in the paddock? the ultimate in gayness

[Beer Baron]

i'd like to see webber and fisi do a swap. a win for everyone.

[ctjet]

LOL i think Red Bull will unimpressed with copping the shit end of that stick

this season will be fascinating boys and girls let me assure you.

im so stoked for lewis hamilton, hes such a meticulous driver and the move around the outside of the world champ into turn one at the start of the race can tell you hes not afraid of anyone. Unfortunately for Lewis, Alonso had the better strategy. Imagine if lewis had finished one step aove Alonso on the podium..that wouldve sent some MAJOR ripples throught the sport and most importantly through Alonsos psyche! I might be the only one thinking this but i am SURE Lewis will win a race this year and he will do it soon.

shame the race was such a bore otherwise..

Theres talk of making Albert park a night race with the track all lit up to coincide with the dubai GP to be hosted a week earlier.

now THAT would keep me awake infront of the telly!

[m3gtr]

maybe many of you have seen this but its a first for me.

Heidfeld going nuts on the snow in his BMW! very cool.

Cant wait to see the footage of the BMW F1 cars hit the full Nurburgring in a few weeks. WIll be interesting to see how a modern F1 car handles the bumps and what lap time it punches out

yeah that would be exciting to watch, what sort of the lap time would it do? the unofficial record was 6mins11 by a porsche i think.

Dont DC will be replaced, but this year will probably be his last year.

Honda has done nothing??? apart from the bit where they paid Williams about $40million to release Jenson from a contract

[Beer Baron]

that ice vid was gay! hehe.

nurburger would be a whole other story though. I'd pay to see that!

[Roy]

Well its BMW PR thing so im sure if ew jumped on a plane we would be able to watch the run. Even better, airfreight the GTSt over there and drive the wheels off the thing, straight over curbs, grass, bumps trying to get within 2 minutes of the BMW

[Hungryhippo]

SCHUMI TO RE-ENTER F1

Michael Schumacher is reportedly on the brink of a multi-million-pound buy-out of the Scuderia Toro Rosso team. According to the Gulf News, the seven-time World Champion is keen to own a F1 team and has targeted Toro Rosso as the outfit he'd like to purchase. The report continues claiming that 'he wants to link up with Ross Brawn, the mastermind behind all his World titles, to form F1's dream team. 'The ex-Ferrari driver and team technical wizard Brawn, now enjoying a world-wandering sabbatical, have already formulated a plan to re-enter F1 as big-time bosses.'

"Formula One has given me everything - and I'd like to give something back," the newspaper reported Schumacher as having said.

The German's manager Willi Weber added fuel to the reports by saying: "It is only one thought - but I can see the sense in Michael buying out an existing operation." One person who would love to see Schumacher step into the role of team owner is Bernie Ecclestone. The F1 supremo said: "Michael has been such a fantastic figure, a real legend, he would be welcome back to the scene in any capacity. He could count on my help anytime."
