So the 2009 line up: Bourdais is officially confirmed by STR

What do we have confirmed so far?

Ferrari: Raikkonen/Massa
Mclaren: Hamilton/Kovalainen
BMW:Kubica/Heidfeld
Renault:Alonso/Piquet
Red Bull:Webber/Vettel
Toyota:Trulli/Glock
STR:TBA/Buemi
Force India:Sutil/Fisichella
Williams:Rosberg/Nakajima


Honda(?):TBA/TBA

*To be confirmed./all but confirmed*

What's likely?
BMW, Kubica and Heidfeld probbably,
Bourdais stays at STR as well, Senna/Buemi his teammate, Alonso and Button at Honda,Piquet and maybe Grosjean at Renault. Williams with Rosberg and Nakajima/Hülkenberg, Force India Sutil/Fisico/Chandhok/Karthikeyan is what I read about.
If I made any mistakes, let me know.

Im still confused about Torro Rosso, they should have thier own car next year shouldn't they? As for STR I think they will keep Bourdais for another year and pair him up with Senna if he wins the GP2 championship...

why are Kimi and Massa under confirmation? they are confirmed ages ago mate, Kimi will continue till the end of 2009 (and most likely even more) and Massa has a contract with Ferrari until the end of 2010...also Rosberg is confirmed for Williams 2009.

With all the rumours, changes going on, and the fact that contracts can be ignored, I'd put them under TBC. However will change it, cause it probbably should be the other way around, presumption of valid contract that is.

I read that Barry Walsh, owner of World Series´team Ultimate Signature, wants to buy Toro Rosso and put Esteban Guerrieri en the F1 team...

I think Berger denied any contact with the Ultimate Signature.
And here's a story where he's putting Alonso to Honda in equasion.
Bourdais may not be certain at all.

But right after that, Ross Brawn denied it... so in a word, they are still confused about whether to sign with them for another year or not.

Trulli is at Toyota next year (got link through wikipedia) [news.bbc.co.uk]

Fixed.

John Howett has stated that Toyota will keep its current drivers.

Yes, Brawn stated something to the effect before as well but took it back.
Now Timo is "all but guaranteed", so let's just wait till the ink dries off

well judging by Silverstone pics.... it will probably invole Trulli in some sort of latex catsuit....


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

LOL Sim!

Maybe Trulli will be wielding a Glock. In case of 4th place, shoot 3rd!

Err yep, in case you didn't realise I meant Toyota
