Nah. They'll be based on the stats I gave him last year, which in turn were based on his F3RWRS results.

Speaking of the F2RWRS, if Marchesi keeps his whining up, Mr Hamilton might find himself back in an F2RWRS car earlier than most expected

Ah, good. The sooner Skaife can sue the both of you

Definitely, yes I would

Alessandro Lucarelli has been AWFUL so far this year while Bjorn Ekdal has been superb here. So could Ekdal theoretically do at least some races if not all remaining ones in F3RWRS plus the whole F1RDS season?

Wasn't there a problem with Lucarelli's performance file?

He was still crap after it was apparently "corrected" anyway. And he's like 24 or 25 already so if he doesn't pull a championship out of his arse this season his career is as good as finished. Kremnicky is SEVENTEEN and is one step ahead on the Road to F1RWRS and championship favourite and won THREE TIMES in his debut season after missing TWO THIRDS OF IT due to injury! Meanwhile Crescenzi is still in his teens so I can be more patient with him and he showed promise at Christopherson Racing last year & has been consistently quicker than Lucarelli this season, even after the performance file was corrected.

No, nothing's wrong there. I think you can blame BMW for that

Don't blame us. He's getting thrashed by Albertini in the F2RWRS as well

Anyway, qualifying results for the second San Marino race:

Simon Mestach wrote:La seconde place est toujours très bonne à prendre, je suis un peu déçu d'avoir mis tant de temps à depasser Hans pour la deuxième place, sinon j'aurais pu jouer la gagne, mais c'est quand même très satisfaisant de monter sur le podium pour la première fois cette année.

Björn Ekdal wrote:The races var inte så good för mig. Jag hoppade att jag would be able to challenge för points. Well, bättre lycka för Monaco.

Luke Knight wrote:Another satisfying result for the team this weekend. From the start it was clear that we didn't have quite the same pace as in Adelaide, but the lads put in 4 good performances to make sure we scored some points. Gary's 4th place in race 1 kept his title hopes alive, and for both Gary and Alexis to finish in the points in Race 2 was fantastic, even if it was for 9th and 10th! The good thing about having 3 races under our belt now is that we can start to see who our title contenders will be for th upcoming year. Nurminen have a good car when it works, Autodynamics and Autobahn GP looks trong, and of course you can never quite write off Scuderia Alitalia. It's a little hard to see where we stand among the front-runners, but I'm certain that we're up amongst them and that this season will be a thriller!

Completely unrelated point: tommykl, do you have seperate keyboards for English and French?

Not at all. There are no special accents for English, so it's not necessary. For a while, I had a QWERTY keyboard, which made typing correct French pretty much impossible without the accents.
