Didn't Hulkenberg come within a whisker of driving for Ferrari in 2014 until Kimi came along? I wonder if Hulk might be sitting on some of 2015 pre-contract at Maranello.
More than likely as a replacement for Alonso.

Re: Is it really racing anymore?

Flat-out racing would be utterly boring. It would be like speedway where a heat last three laps, but where the final result is almost always the same as the position 10 seconds after the start. AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHH dont fall into the trap of generalising other sports. Speedway is actually 4 laps, and ...

Re: Tell All Webber Interview

Here's a link to a summary of the interview. Nothing groundbreaking here, he basically said that he wants to win LeMans with Porsche and he won't miss Vettel, so no surprises there. http://www.foxsports.com.au/motor-sports/formula-one/mark-webber-says-le-mans-is-his-target-when-he-joins-porsche-for...

Re: Eddie Jordan's Position at BBC

It will not have an effect on his contract at BBC 1.

However, what year did Jordan win their 1st ever race?

Re: Magnussen linked to McLaren seat

Using JB as a yardstick is a little false in my eyes as I believe JB may not have been dfully on it this year once it became apparent the car was useless, Since the inmprovements have ben made JB's form has improved.

Re: motogp 2014 coverage

I believe BT sport have exclusive British rights, I would imagine that means Eurosport will lose out. If you are a Virgin media subscriber and are on the top package BT sport is available freely. That may be an option?

Re: Massa rates Alonso above Schumacher (again) right or wro

However if you look at Massa's quote he states Schumacher was just as fast, however Alonso is the more rounded professional.

Re: Tell All Webber Interview

Cant see there being too much to surprise us as Webbers personality is seemingly very honest and he is not slow to tell the world whats going on. Seems like a nice bloke and had a decent career in F1, I wish him all the best in his future motorsport career.

Re: Massa rates Alonso above Schumacher - right or wrong?

Massa can compare as he has driven with both drivers. You would have to say he is the nearest to ideal person to ask.

Re: Magnussen linked to McLaren seat

I could never understand why McLaren signed Perez. A couple of decent performances in a decent Sauber...

The fear I have for McLaren is the development of the car, I am pretty sure it's not Jensons forte and its just a bit of a recipe for disaster with McLarens reliance on data.

Alonso was just making mistakes, seems the Ferrari had the pace for top 10 so pace is there just silly mistakes from Alonso and Massa failing again. One of the cars would have probably made the top ten... Edd Straw, on twitter said something along the lines of It's time like these Ferrari could be ...

Re: Ferrari are just bluffing???

Are they just bluffing and want to surprise everyone in Melbourne. I think they are just hiding their real pace. They found that F2012 is too fast from red bull and Mclaren about 0.8 to 1 sec step ahead. too fast and wanted to hide it. My source??? F1 insider. :lol: :lol: :lol: :thumbdown: Oh dear....

Re: Button went from......

I think the OP is incorrect, I dont think Jenson was average in his 1st season. HIs debut was pretty decent, from the back of the grid into a points position until the engine expired showed plenty of talent, then to follow it up with a points finish in his 2nd race to become the youngest ever points...
