Van der garde apparently has a contract for Caterham it was leaked to Dutch press apparently, i haven't seen a pic yet though

potter84

I read these reports if true i am really not too optimistic for the next few years too many rookies the majority of which didn't even win gp2 or become runners up, and as last seasons gp2 was especially weak says a lot. Caterham will have one season of f1 driving between them the other has spent wha...

Smoother driver like button, senna if around and Perez to a point all struggled to get tyres working properly last year, if the car has a wider working range they will stand a better chance this year

It looks like one uniformed nose does not look like there is a join so i would agree its not got a modesty panel hiding a stepped nose

The more i see it the more i really am liking it, colour and all included but i really don't seem to like the alpine stars overalls, the colours just don't seem right on them.

potter84

Is it just me or does the livery remind anyone of the Walter Wolff cars like the one scheckter drove with the red on it? More than say JSP era lotus, i kinda prefer the old lotus racing green of old to the JPS livery, just a very British feel to it, but as this isn't really British as such they go w...

What is Burn then? Some energy drink?

i believe it is an energy drink from coke in the us, i would rather see relentless decal on an f1 car.

I quite like it not bowled over but i think its one that will get better the more you see it.

Maldonado - Monaco, he used to be called a street circuit specialist till he screwed himself in Monaco 2012, but in 2011 he placed his useless Williams in 6th till a possessed Hamilton punted him to the wall Hulkenberg - Sao Paolo, need I say more? he also nearly got banned for life for nearly kill...

potter84

Mind games or not, only God knows, but it's ironic in my eyes, they praise each other but Vettel keeps running away with the titles. They could try what Senna did; offer their services for nothing, just to get their hands on a car that can win the title(s). Of course Senna didn't go through with it...

potter84

Yes kimi did and to be honest wasn't his finest hour, but getting drunk and falling off your boat isn't deliberately glassing another human being, as for Maldonado he was very nearly banned for life from competing in Monaco i get the feeling some money may have changed hands because they seemed pret...

If Sutil brings sponsorship, I would find that quite odd. Who still likes to sponsor that guy after the glassing incident? think capri sun still do lol.. They come in packets not glasses so its no danger to them.. I agree though i don't think he should be allowed near the grid he could have killed ...

Bruno sennas press office has said the maintenance of his website was already planned and isn't in connection to Caterham removing petrov's sponsors from their site, they claim he is in the uk on personal matters.

Caterham removed this afternoon "russian elicopters" sponsorship from the website. I bet Petrov has already signed for Marussia. found out about an hour ago senna is in the uk, apparently his website and caterhams went down caterhams came back without any mention of VP sponsors while Brunos just sa...

Hasn't Michael always rubbished the idea of a management role? He was clearly discontent even as a consultant to Ferrari. I don't think now is the time to start a new team for ANYONE. DM wants too much money for STR or it'd be gone already methinks. i honestly believe the reason he always rubbishes...

potter84

As for starting from scratch str is for sale not to mention other teams that might be looking for an out (FI) maybe

potter84

Nothing screams "totally past it" more than a Michael and Ross reunion tour. God, spare us. to be honest if they could get enough finance behind the team i think they could i don't mean Michael as a driver unless maybe the first season to get them up and going but a brawn schumi team could bring in...

potter84

Yeah but as i said Lewis himself hadn't decided by that point so the only thing he could have known is that they had approached him and probably knew it was a very lucrative offer. As for schumai coming back yes he did say it but it had been mooted on various other forums and news articles that it w...

potter84

Could be but i think it was strained already and if nothing else nearly scuppered the deal as McLaren upped their offer considerably

potter84

True and i fully agree something's are, i do believe the first rumor of Hamilton to merc was done by merc to detract from their mid season slump, which subsequently became a 1/2 season slump. But it can also be said that on it can also do more harm than good, lets face it Hamilton himself said he ha...

potter84

yes, because as much as people like to think of Eddie Jordan as an oracle he is just an eccentric who relays rumour as fact himself who does on occasion get it right but very often doesn't as well. An eccentric, yes, but a well informed one. He got Schumacher to Mercedes right and Hamilton to the s...

Andrew Benson is the worst sort of journo. He's reporting something that is only speculation at best at the moment as fact. Nothing has been confirmed about Brawn leaving or Loew joining but he completely fails to mention that. The man loses the BBC credibilty everytime he opens his laptop to write...

potter84

it might just cause the opposition to get hot under the collar... as it clearly does with Marko (though perhaps not anyone else at RB). That's the part I'd like to expand on. I've seen it in professional sporting teams where the coach or some other team principal gets involved in a war of worlds, a...

potter84

Is anybody else sick of all these pay drivers? and teams looking for the money instead of the talent, I know it's obviously just the state in which F1 is in right now, but it's really becoming quite boring! How much longer will it go on for and how much worse will it get. how long have you watched ...

potter84

Yeah but as it was pic's rookie season it doesn't say much that he gave glock such a hard time and challenged him so closely

potter84

I would be very surprised if razia brought quite that much with him otherwise marussia would have gone for him over Chilton dispite chiltons connections with them money talks and razia finished higher in gp2 and according to that brings in substantially more cash.

potter84

I can't think of anyone I'd like to see replace Bernie. He might be a pain, but he's the best thing for the sport (IMO). I think Flavio would be a good replacement. oh yeah Bernie might get forced out for the negative image it brings if the German court prosecutes him, so go get a guy that's been b...

Williams only made what £6m last year (profit) but a large chunk of that was money from the Concorde agreement, on the whole though i believe they are fine especially as pdvsa's cost for Maldonado rises each year as believed. Bearing in mind they have lost senna's what £8-10m but that cash will show...

potter84

I think he has all the right tools but to be honest i think Bernie will be replaced by a board rather than one man.

potter84

Petrov, it all fits Russian sponsors, Russian team, russian driver, a russian gp 2014. Agree senna Caterham and Bianchi force India When you put it like that there's no contest! I don't think it'll do any good for Chilton's career though, while he seemed pretty reasonable he didn't set the world on...

potter84

I am now hoping Force India and Caterham go for rookies. From the current crop of experienced drivers still hoping for a seat the only one I would miss is Kobayashi. Buemi and Alguersuari would be my reserves since I think they have some potential. I wouldn't miss the bunch of Kovalainen, Glock, Pe...

It must be a worry for frank, wolff was effectively team principle most of last year and exec also, he gave so much more to Williams than just money his management over race weekends seemed top notch for someone so new to that position in f1. There seems to be a void now that frank will have to fill...

potter84

I imagine likewise petrov, a Russian owned team with a Russian driver probably on a 2 year deal with Russian sponsors in the first Russian gp seems to make sense and will really get the interest going for them.
