VDG had to sue Sauber he has a personal debt of over 24m € and sponsers that have given him money.
I don't think the main reason for him to sue is to race, he wants money, but now that he won, his Father in Law is pushing him to go even further because he wants to take over Sauber for a cheap price.

Re: Let's compare Red Bull "dominance" with Mercedes
I think the problem is not how much they win, butt the way they are winning. Red Bull was dominant the past years, butt there where teams that could challenge them and make it harder for them. They had to fight for the win. Mercedes this year doesn't have a challanger, they race each other, but non ...

Re: Could this championship be uncompetitive
I still think Renault will get it right before the season begins, and like many say, we still have to wait to see how the engines will do in a race, what iff Merc is fast, but can't complete a full race whitout blowing up or use to much fuel. We still have a couple of weeks before the season starts!...

I don't think taking the gherkin out of another team's woes when your own financial position is pretty critical is the thing to do Lotus...

Re: Rumour Ferrari blokking Hulkenberg to Lotus for next 2 r
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Hulk's contract with Sauber was terminated. If Sauber were just behind on payments (like Lotus are to Kimi) and then paid him in full through the help of Ferrari, then this would make sense. But if the contract had already been terminated then Hulk would...

Re: Red Bull Secret Hybrid Technology
Seb has something on his car that makes him turn on the power faster after the corner, during the race you had a view from above the hairpin, Vettel was leading, but he had tyres that where 20 to 25 laps old, Webber was behind him and had fresh tyres on, still Vettel could accelerate much faster aft...

Re: Perez driving today
If this was Grosjean, everybody who is defending him now, would yell to ban him forever!!
I think Perez should get a penalty and warning, this isn't the first incident, but he drives a McClaren and can't do anything wrong.

Re: Grosjean again...what should the FIA do?
I think everybody is seeing only Grosjean, but i also think Webber was way to slow in the corner, and Perez was aside whit Gros so he had no way to go. Webber only blames Grosjean but doesn't say why he was so slow in the corner, he was already past by some cars.

Re: Hamilton did he move twice?
Drivers may no longer move back onto the racing line having moved off it to defend a position.
this are the new regulations for 2012, and Hamilton didn't have to move he didn't thought he could get past back by Vettel!

Re: Official 2012 Chinese Grand Prix thread
Hamilton waved? don't even go there Why? because we have had some great racing, do not want a silly penalty to spoil it all!! If he pulled illegal move, not punishing him will spoil race. Common sense. " drivers may no longer move back onto the racing line having moved off it to defend a position."...
