Looks like Ferrari and the other big boys are exerting their influence to Todt. In season testing is looking like a real possibility for 2012. Cant help but think this will really hurt RBR as the past few years the other teams have def out devloped RBR over the course of the year. While RBR seems to always be strong out of the gate. The FIA do not want to see RBR win 3 champs in a row is my take.

I don't know if its that other teams out develop RBR so much as they start to copy RBR's designs.

I was just thinking about that this week. He doesn't seem to have the team's attention like Ron Dennis did. I remember reading one of Matchett's books and he talked about the team stiffening up and getting very professional whenever Dennis walked by. And that was Benetton!

I doubt it will happen, but I would fucking PARTY and get drunk as hell if Kimi comes back to F1.

I think Vettel won't like it though, Kimi won't play #2 lol

I would party too, and I think Vettel would like it, him and Kimi are good friends, and more often than not he won't have to worry about Kimi since he will just be pressing his vodka buttons on his steering wheel, and then maybe hit the fastest lap button towards the end of the race.

Kimi to rbr? http://formula-one.speedtv.com/artic...er-at-red-bull

Not a bad race ...did anybody notice Goldie there!!! SICK.

Di Resta is ricking awesome....and he is sooo modest and not a cock like some others.

[Hick]

Di Resta is the 2010 DTM Champion, hes a very accomplished driver. I knew he would do well in F1 but i expected it to take more then a race to get used to the cars. It must be a freak'n dream to be racing in F1, and doing a good job, for that guy.

Looks like Perez may get Massa's seat

Perez has been doing very well this year, but I wouldn't say to the degree that Maldonado is compared to Barichello or Di Resta to Sutil, and Kobash isn't really an elder statesman yet, he is only in his second full season.

I think perez is doing better than maldonado but yeah Di Resta is waaay better than both of them, he caught me off guard.

[E30Kaiser]

^^same goes for alonso, hamilton, and button.

I haven't really been paying attention but it seems like Perez is really hanging on too along with the whole "rookies doing better than the seasoned drivers" (maldonado vs barichello, perez vs kobayashi... etc)

I'm just happy the racing underground debacle seems to be solved, so I'll be able to watch the next Grand Prix and catch back up on WRC.

Yes yes yes. 100% yes. I think if he had a better car, things would be different right now.
