Re: Van der Garde vs Sauber
If they'll have to pay Sutil 15 million Euros as well, I see a bankruptcy in their future. Sadly for him, I think he didn't play the "game" quite as well as Giedo so he'll probably end up with quite a bit less. Sutil will be lucky to get half that. Is it confirmed that Sutil really is in the same s...

Re: Red Bull Threatens to quit F1
Actually, I think that the big F1 teams have been well over 600 for quite a while. If I remember correctly, Toyota was somewhere near 900, and Ferrari, Honda, & McLaren would not have been far behind. Very true and another thing to consider is how many people are directly or indirectly employed by ...

Re: Hamilton deliberately holding back in Brazil..?
Lewis was holding back, but failed to put his final lap together as he locked up and drifted off a few hundredths in the last bit. Rosberg was epic, and so fast - which was the pressure point for Lewis. Congrats to Nico on his Fastest Man in F1 2014 Trophy That's a great show today... Um that troph...
