Im with Gav here, if they replace him, at least replace him with a driver that knows what a good car feels like, like ermm Sato?

They have a race winning car underneath and yet are finishing near enough last!!!

If STR can unlock that car they will cause massive headaches for not only Ferrari, Mclaren and Williams but also for Brawn!!

If they want to put a complete rookie in that car, surely it would be better to keep Bourdais! Although it would be fantastic if they found another Kimi Raikkonen - he had next to no experience on his debut. An F1 team surely knows what it's doing, if they do give this Spanish teen a drive then it'll be for a good reason.

not really, they haven't got any updates from the RB5 for a long time now. They are still running a single deck diffuser i think, and they also haven't got the big Silverstone package either.

Yeah, looks like that's it for Bordais, I was hoping he'd do well in F1 after his strong showing stateside, but that didn't happen. I agree with Schueyfan, I also think he'll go the ALMS route now.

Would have to say that after the German GP Bourdais is history. He actually looks like he will be glad if Toro Rosso replaces him....

I beleive he brings a rather large personal backer in the form of Repsol

indeed, apparently they have offered to supply both Red Bull teams for free as well, if he is given the drive.
