Grand Prix Rejects

I didn't want to get to this point, but...

MAX JEAN!!!

Oh, come on, really guys? Really? Not one of you thought of the one and only FRANCK MONTAGNY!!!

Pah. It's all about JEAN-MARC GOUNON!

Really? The only Frenchman I can see making a comeback is undoubtedly ROBERT MANZON!!!

No, clearly it has to be PAUL BELMONDO!!!

All I can say to all of those is bullshite. Bring in RENÉ ARNOUX.

It is OLIVER GROUILLARD!!!

And he's gonna mobile-chicane and troll you all!!

If he does a comeback in 2014, he can't complain about naturally aspirated engines.

Come on. It's got to be Jean-Pierre Jabouille. one podium at a time

Fixed.

No, no, I think I got it this time. GUY LIGIER!!!

JEAN-ÉRIC VERGNE not mentioned yet? I mean, someone just has to rescue him from the dead bull company, plus he'd make a great pairing with Alesi, being a fan of him and all.

Only to replace RRRRMMMNNNN GRRRRRJJJNNNNNNN when he is serving a ban for causing an avoidable crash!

I was in the pub and Eddie Jordan told me that ÉRIK COMAS has already signed.

Well done. You messed up twice in one thread! GRRRSSSJJJJJNNNN is Swiss!

But why would you sign him when JEAN-PIERRE JARIER is available?

Alain Prost, on all the rumours surrounding the second driver at his team wrote:Frere Jacques, Frere Jacques, Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous? Sonnez les matines! Sonnez les matines! Din, dan, don. Din, dan, don.

Why is he never described as Swiss then? Is he ashamed of Switzerland?

Well, Switzerland sure didn't help his career much by having their stupid motorsport ban so I cannot blame him for not driving under Swiss flag.

Plus, he would be inmediately related by people to JEAN-DENIS DELETRAZ.

Not this time. He drives under the French flag, so he is good as if he was born in France.

No no, it must be Christophe Bouchut!!!

After winning the 2014 IndyCar title, it'll be SÉBASTIEN BOURDAIS!

ADRIAN SUTIL!! will glass someone else in the face

Whoever said it was right. This next offseason could end up being the worst outbreak of f1 deprivation ever. I just hope nobody gets their brains eaten.

Yes this really needs to happen, he couldn't do much worse than Massa

He was trying to get the BBC to do a show on the...'worst'...F1 drivers ever so that he could be on a show. I tweeted to tell him of the love that exists at f1rejects.com

Crazy idea time: Maldonado to Sauber.

Will Buxton has just Tweeted this:

Well that was interesting. Pastor Maldonado, on the record, just told me he might not be with Williams next year. Keeping options open.

On his day, Maldonado is undeniably fast, but he obviously lacks discipline. The same kind of discipline that Sauber is known to instill in their drivers. And between Perez moving to McLaren and Schumacher confirming his second retirement, there is a guaranteed vacancy at Sauber. Perez’s departure means the team is probably going to be a little short on cash next year, but Maldonado brings the kind of money they need.

It would be a tremendously unpopular move for Pastor Maldonado to go to Sauber, but if anybody can straighten him out, it’s Peter Sauber. Just imagine what it would be like if he gave us more drives like Barcelona and less like Silverstone …

And suddenly Williams is stuck between a rock and a hard place if that were to happen. This silly season just keeps getting more and more intriguing by the minute.

Yeah, but Peter wouldn't be of very much help next season since he is stepping out isn't he?

giraurd wrote:Yeah, but Peter wouldn't be of very much help next season since he is stepping out isn't he?

The culture of an organisation does not change overnight simply because one variable was added or removed. Sauber will continue to expect that their drivers think, act, race and behave a certain way, and they will make every effort to instill those values in their drivers for some time to come.

And even if Sauber gives up full control of the team to Monisha Kaltenborn, I very much doubt that he will simply walk away from them and have nothing to do with them ever again. He'll maintain a presence, and doubtless the drivers will look to him when they need a bit of help.

Raikkonen gets bored, leaves Lotus-Renault. Maldonado replaces him to be Grosjean's team-mate and the team is renamed DESTRUCTION DERBY F1.

Andrea de Cesaris takes over management from Eric Boullier.

that would be SOOOOOOOOO cool

I think Jaime should get the Sauber drive, because their "Ask the Driver" clips they do before each race would be much better with him than Maldonado. I think Sauber's press officer delights in giving them the most awkward questions.

Really?

That's the reason why you think he should get the seat?

Indeed... I, for instance, prefer Jaime to take the seat because he is so much better at DJing than Maldonado, although the latter also knows a thing or two about scratching stuff.

That and the fact he is a slightly better driver. And I just don't see Maldonado as a Sauber man.

Because of this, I just want to add to the temporarily-dropped mix Nicolas Prost!!!
