2010 Driver Grid *your predictions*

no surprise there.
however, he was trying to get a 2 year deal i believe, and only seems to have got a 1 year deal, probably with an option for 2011.

Autosport are suggesting that de la Rosa will be at Campos next year, having asked to be released by McLaren.
3 Spaniards next year?

Winner: Not the Nickv Comment of the Year 2009
Due to the voting system in Germany, Governments are always made up of coalitions of different parties. At the last election, an almost unprecidented result saw the CDU/CSU (rough equivilant of the Conservatives) go into Government with the SPD (rough equivilant of Labour)

Wow, has there there ever been that many at one time?
Alot of rumours about JV and/or Wurz to USF1. JV and Wurz lineup would be awesome imo. To many I guess not but anything to have Jacques back, a real RACING driver!!!
[news.bbc.co.uk]
His final comments about where they expect the car and team is quite funny. The words, big sweet spot, balance, reliable and quick enough to score points. Im sorry but optimism is a good thing, but until a car hits track the computer will not tell them whether their car has a big sweet spot, or if its reliable or even its well balanced! I still am very unsure about this whole thing, if they have two cars at Melbourne and are able to match the other new teams then I will eat my words, and i'd love to be proven wrong about USF1. I like the idea, F1 needs the US market and a team will surley help matters!
"Trulli was slowing down like he wanted to have a picnic" LOL

Wurz is too old i think, however he would be a great tester for the team over the off-season.
If they want experience, they should go Sato, Klien, Liuzzi etc. instead of Wurz i think.

It would be nice getting JV in the car #27, the number that Gilles used to have in his Ferrari

yes, but there is no guarantee that USF1 will be in the 13th slot, or that JV will be at the team at all of course

the exit of BMW certainly makes the 2010 driver market even more fascinating!
should Peter Sauber or Mario Theissen do a Brawn like takeover of the team, i could imagine Heidfeld remaining, but i doubt Kubica will stay with them. But where could he go? Ferrari and Red Bull are taken, Renault and Toyota have less than secure futures in the sport and Brawn isn't as appealing any more with supposed funding problems. That doesn't leave too much. McLaren is an option, but he might find it hard to get ahead of Hamilton in the team hierarchy. Apart from that, i think Williams could be his best option, as they seem to be improving every year, and with smaller budgets being phased in - and seemingly a very secure future - they could improve even further.
But that could all depend on Rosberg. Now one of his major options is gone, he is more likely to stay at Williams, although McLaren and Brawn would still be options - but the aforementioned problems with these drives could influence his decision.
A Rosberg and Kubica partnership at Williams would certainly be one of the better pairings in the field, but there are still a lot of variables to sort out. Money would be an issue, as well as whether Toyota and Renault remain on the grid next year.
