The Official F1 2009 Thread

Alonso is the best current driver. I cant wait to see him in a Ferrari, but i dont think he and Massa will get along. I would like to see Massa out pace Alonso in all honesty.

I agree that Alonso is arguably the best driver currently in F1. There will probably be a gnashing of egos between the Brazilian and the Spaniard. In Massa's defense, I believe he can give Alonso a run for his money. Do I believe Massa will beat Alsono a lot? Nope - that's doubtful. But there will be times when Massa will have a better day than Alonso at the track. I think the two of them will really push one another. God help us if they take each other out of a race like Senna & Prost :-P

So I guess we can start calling the Scuderia "The Fred & Phil Show".

ill be angry is JV comes back

So, sounds like these seats are set so far:

Ferrari
Massa, Alonso

McMerc
Hamilton, Kimi

Renault
Kubica, ???

Brawn
Rosberg, Button (??)

Red Bull
Vettel, Webber

Beyond that, sounds like it is a cluster f**k . . . .

Hearing Rubens to Williams, and Button may or may not be at Brawn.

Heidfeld - if Sauber is in, maybe he stays there?

A lot of guys want back in - Villenueve, Davidson, maybe Wurz?

I won't surprised if Heikki and Grosjean are gone. Nakajima is definitely a goner now.

Toyota out, Sauber back in.

Alonso is the best current driver. I cant wait to see him in a Ferrari, but i dont think he and Massa will get along. I would like to see Massa out pace Alonso in all honesty.

I would expect an announcement about Toyota's withdrawal within 2 weeks.

[E30Kaiser]

Rumor also has it that nico and Barrichello are going to switch places so i guess Williams may be Nico Hulk and Rubino. So....maybe Heikki will go to Sauber? Who knows, I hope he stays though.

[elsabor67]

German news outlets are reporting (CNN also) that Kimi will go back to McLaren for next season. I wonder where Kovalainen will end up at................

[naplesE30]

Does this autotmatically make him their No 1 driver? It will be a very interesting for Ferrari, espc if Massa drives like he is capable of. I cant wait for the first race He and Hamilton are on the front row together!

[E30Kaiser]

its finally official, Alonso to Ferrari for 2010. http://www.formula1.com/news/headlin...9/9/10015.html

Bernie said they won't be ready. Therefore, I believe that they will be ready.

So Toyota didn't re-sign Trulli for 2010. Now they announce that they will pass on Glock's 2010 option. Recall of 3.8 MILLION cars announced today. I see the writing on the wall, do you?

....ehhhhh sucks that its hitting F1

on a side note did anyone see or read anything about USF1 not being ready for next year? the boys on BBC mentioned it.

This season isn't over! I'm not counting out Barrichello just yet.

[bwanac]

Sooo.... next season... anyone excited?

[YAN-3]

just finished the race. I was so hoping Rubens would get around Button.

sucks for Nick, he had some 30+ GPs without a DNF....
