2010 Driver Market

[dr-baker]

Someone was feeling a little horse earlier today.

Isn't a little horse called a pony? Could it have been a Shetland pony?

[Phoenix]

Was the horse prancing ?

We better forget this silly episode pronto.

Chadok goes to Campos (probably only for the money)

Chadok goes to Campos (probably only for the money)

Autosport this week (print edition) says Senna's place in Campos is in jeopardy, that the young Brazilian has been asked to cough up some more dough to hold on to the seat.

I'm sorry, but if the Campos marketing and sales people can't make a mint out of a driver called Senna that actually looks like the late Ayrton to boot, they deserve to be taken outside and put out of their misery.

Is it possible that Senna doesn't have as much money as Jose Maria Lopez or Karun Chandok?

[f1-gast]

That's possible also Brazil got economic problems.
But i think he will be in the formule1 also because he is the cousin of Ayrton Senna.

[DemocalypseNow]

Not nearly as bad as the US & Europe. Maybe Embratel are cheapskates...or they just have the brains to not pour money into something that's on the brink of failure.

You mean nephew?

dutch people confuse these words much, as we have a word for nephew (neef) and niece (nicht) but we use the same words for cousins.

forgive this guy for once

[f1-gast]

yes i mean Nephew.
My grammar isn't perfect sorry.

[thehemogoblin]

yes i mean Nephew.
My grammar isn't perfect sorry.

Don't worry about it. We're accepting of lousy English, as long as there's good insight or a good person behind it.

[CarlosFerreira]

yes i mean Nephew.
My grammar isn't perfect sorry.

And, what's more, it's all family anyway.

BMW's shock pull-out after just four seasons as a constructor, Fernando Alonso's impending move to Ferrari and the official confirmation of the three new teams has thrown the 2010 drivers market wide open.

Ermmm, you're right - you're just several months late with that post. Co there's just two weeks now until the new season and I would be worried if the drivers' market were still open. And with a false signature like that, I sincerely hope you're not a spambot (albeit one with relevant knowledge of F1 od 6 or so months ago). By the way, Brawn have been sold to Mercedes and have signed Schumacher! And US F1 has no American drivers!

well, even so it already has two advantages over most posters around...

Oh dear god, they are getting smarter. Still not there yet, but this one was much closer to the real deal than ever before

These things ALWAYS happen when I'm not around.

Problem solved.

I want closure on this thread. But, with only 1.5 weeks until Bahrain, there is still one unfilled seat:

I think most people are about 95% sure that the 2nd HRT seat (if they make it this year) will be Chandhok's.

Well, yeah, but still, why don't they just make it official, then this thread will finally have served its purpose and be complete, officially?

[P_Friesacher]

I think the seat is going to Lopez.
And I say this not because I actually think so, but because of the huge "told you so"-payoff if it turned out to be true.

I wouldn't close this thread even when someone is confirmed for that seat. Because, you know, as we all know, teams can change drivers during a season...

Or we can just rename it to the 2011 Driver Market, because, like Christmas or objects in the mirror, it's always closer than it appears.

I think you would get way ahead of yourself to say anything about 2011, before the 2010 season has even started...

Chandhok announced as HRT driver

Looks to me like he's had a little shave between the eyebrows too. The old stock photo of Chandhok that Pitpass always used showed a very definite monobrow (far more than Alonso's alleged one!) where as today he is definitely presenting a pair!

According to pages online, rumour only, JML is now preparing to be a reserve for Campos Dallara Hispanic Arriba Holden Hormone Replacement Therapy.

But what I've also read (cant remember where) is that JML has also given up on F1 altogether.

I hate rumours.
