Your forgetting I'm the current seatholder at Minardi and may want to brush off any approach for him.

As if, his performances have been stunning, someone in a top team sign him!

To be honest I completely forgot about Spokes.

TomWazzleshaw · Post by **TomWazzleshaw** » 18 May 2012, 06:53

There are unconfirmed rumours in the British Press that Tom Douglas is considering asking Luca De Montemelo to sign Spokes as Ferrari's second driver for 1996. More to come soon.

I'm fairly certain Mr McClean has priority over everyone else for that seat on the basis that Simtek ran itself into the ground

Not my fault!

Uhh go right ahead Mecha. I need to figure out a master plan for Daniel Moreno to win the championship.

But if you're out of options for a seat are out, Pablo da Silva is interested.

RonDenisDeletraz · Post by **RonDenisDeletraz** » 19 May 2012, 00:57

You do know that Pablo da Silva has been banned for the first two races of the year by the FIA.

Anyway, Sauber plan to retain da Silva as some of his races (read:Monaco) have been really good.

Press wrote:DA SILVA TO APPEAL LENGTH OF PENALTY FOR MORENO INCIDENT: REPORT
According to driver Pablo da Silva, he has said that he will appeal the length of the penalty given to him at the Japanese GP after a collision with Daniel Moreno. According to his agent, he said that he deserved the penalty, but thinks the length is too long, but confusion reigns as da Silva's translator said (in reference to da Silva): "I am appealing to the penalty itself, I thought it was worth it for causing an avoidable collision. But I am appealing because of the length of the sentence of three races for me too. I think a race is good enough, the team simply can not afford to lose so much progress at the start of the season due to another driver. Not that I do not like other drivers, is that the installation must be fitted with a driver, and when I have to come after the suspension, the team must find my setup again and it gets confusing. In addition, I would start at the same time as everyone else."

Reports are saying that the translator has been given a pay cut. Other sources say that da Silva's translators translates sentences from Portuguese to Spanish to English, causing lots of translation errors.

James Davies wrote:That's ridiculous. Pablo, if you didn't want the penalty, you shouldn't have driven like such a douche. Simple as. As for losing progress at the start of next year, that's bullshite. There's nothing preventing the team from just writing your setup down somewhere. Hell, they might find that another driver might help, rather than hurt.

I suggest the FIA just ignore him - he's probably jealous that I'm in McLaren, kicking ass and winning races and he's stuck in Sauber.

Luca de Montmelo has given up his seatholder position at Ferrari, joining the exodus of Ferrari staff this year. It is unknown who will takeover the spot although Kazuhiko Takagi and Christopher Monaldo have been mentioned as possible replacements. Montmelo will join Padraig O'Connell and the team's chief designer, John Barnard, in the mass exit from Ferrari.

Monaldo is currently in jail for having maken Simtek bankrupt - so he will not be able to take over the seatholder position at Ferrari.

F1RGP2C Awards Gala!

The crowds begin to file in as the annual F1RGP2C Awards Gala begins. All the drivers that participated this year, even Martin McFry, are in attendance as hundreds of star-struck fans gawk at John Zimmer and Daniel Moreno outside of one of the many opulent Monegasque hotels. Tristan Jung, the MC for today, straightens his tie backstage as the guests arrive to their tables to see the finale of the 1995 season. After the doors close, the highlights video for the season begins. The crowd see the hastily arranged video and applaud as the final highlight (James Davies crossing the line to win the Duel of the Desert) plays. Then, Tristan Jung finally arrives onto the stage. The F1RGP2C receives mild applause; the crowd hasn't forgotten Jung's wild rant at the 1995 Pacific GP but he takes it in stride. Then, he begins his speech.

"Now, I know this has been a long season. It is clear that I have made some mistakes this season and I know that sometimes, you all were not always entertained (like at the 1995 Spanish GP). I know that I have been called a buffoon in several reputable media channels and I am aware that I have probably run my mouth a little bit too much in the last year. But that should all be forgotten. Why, you ask? Well, for one, it is not healthy to dwell on past events; one should move on and learn from past mistakes. But more importantly, this should all be forgotten because whatever idiotic decisions I have made this year, I can't even come close to the idiocy that the drivers, and or entities on the Reject Podium wallowed in this season. So no, the F1RGP2C/FIA will not be receiving Reject of the Year. I think my own shared Reject of the Race award is enough. I am happy to announce that these drivers, and or entities, have surpassed the usual bounds of stupidity and entered new territory in the annals of reject history. Ladies and gentlemen, the Reject Podium!"

3rd: Volga Pacific Grand Prix
What did Pacific achieve this season? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. DAMS almost scored a point at Monaco with Pippa Mann. Masta Valsattis finished in 11th with a Forti and could've finished higher if it weren't for Reiko Megumi's repeated attempts to force him out of the race. Simtek had Jorg Scrattenheim who managed two top ten finishes despite having an awful car. What did Pacific do? Well, for starters, they had the lowest classification record in the entire grid. Yes, even Forti finished more races per start then Pacific (albeit by 1.5 percentage points). The only time that both cars didn't retire, Anton Kaliniczenko and Artiom Zielenkovski both failed to be classified because they were just too DAMN SLOW! Added to their awful performance while being lapped and the countless number of botched qualifying runs, Pacific has to be on the reject podium. Also, there was not a single press release or media note from the team for the entire season! Petr Chaddeev (wherever he is)! Anton Kaliniczenko! Artiom Zielenkovski! (breaks the 4th wall) The Lukas! Where are you?

2nd: Reiko Megumi!
I think it is about time we replace the old "What is Deletraz doing?" maxim with a new one. As the winner of the second place trophy may suggest, I think we should start saying: "What the bathplug is Reiko Megumi doing now?". In a season where accidents were plentiful, Reiko Megumi and her blue Ligier seemed to be in about half of them. In fact, I've looked through my endless photo catalog and found no less than nine separate incidents for Reiko this year (crashed w/Gazurek in Argentina, crashed in Monaco, took out Poppy, took out Kickert, wheel problem in Germany, knocked Valsattis off thrice in Japan and Poppy once, not counting the Pacific GP spins). Her only points score came at when I switched Mignolet's name to Megumi the wild Pacific GP. On most day, Reiko was miles behind her teammates, even though Dennis Mignolet only scored three points really should be 6 due to awful luck. Megumi was just too slow and too inconsistent this year. That Ligier seat is cursed.

Reject of the Year: Sebastian Gazurek (I couldn't have red and white again...)
Bad news for Poland, their first driver in the F1RGP2C turns out to be one of the worst drivers that the F1 Rejects universe has ever seen. He is officially the YUJI IDE of the sport. Let's go through a race-by-race recap of his mercifully brief career.
Race 1: Gazurek takes ROTR in Brazil for getting in the way of every single driver that crossed his path. He was not classified because he was just TOO DAMN SLOW!
Race 2: Gazurek gets ROTR in Argentina for one of the stupidest moves I've ever seen, taking out Megumi's Ligier while being lapped. His fastest lap was 15 seconds slower than the leader. He was fined $50,000 and received calls for the revocation of his super license.
Race 3: Doesn't finish last because Hoshino's Footwork retires but again has the slowest quick lap of the race.
Race 4: Qualifies in dead last, again fails to finish due to not completing enough laps (with the equally terrible Samael Meerwick).
Races 5-17: Never qualifies again, regularly a full second behind his teammate.
A short, but brilliantly awful season.

Dishonorable Mentions:
Samael Meerwick: Your own seat holder was campaigning to get you fired after only four races. Miraculously, he survived to finish the season so he gets a pass.
DAMS: A season littered with DNQs but they had a few bright spots.
Douglas Mann: You are so lucky that you won that last race of the year.
Kazuhiko Takagi: Didn't do too badly, in my opinion.
Tom Douglas: For that one move on John Zimmer.
Tristan Jung: For nearly canceling the Pacific GP and completely messing up the calculations, as well as lack of a set schedule and making numerous mistakes (like not putting the proper race titles and swapping the European GP).
Pablo da Silva: He did score 4 points... Eh, he's on the cusp of 3rd place.

As you can see, I have dropped the Portuguese round in favor of an American round. I have also moved the Spanish GP from Catalunya to Jerez and dumped Aida so I don't have to edit the tracks more than once a season. Lastly, the American round might be held at an oval but I don't know how GP2 handles them so I will be doing some tests later this week. If all goes well, then we might have an F1RGP2C 500.

Valsattis is also happy to have 10 races as number 1 driver for Ligier. Should be enough to hit his personal target of maiden podium and 20 points.
