And even so if BMW would have stepped out Williams would have retained the team. Getting BMW on board would have been the smartest thing, instead they are at the point where they need pay drivers.Michael Schumacher The Best Ever F1 Driver
Everything I post is my own opinion and I\'ll always try to back it up! :)

Hulkenberg smashed Maldonado in GP2 in 2009 when they were team-mates. Pastor was in his 3rd year, Nico was a rookie. I think that's the most odd part of this decision.
Maybe he will surprise like Kobayashi, maybe not.
In any case I'll predict Rubens will comfortably beat him and extend his career another season in doing so.
Good luck to him.

As far as I am concerned Williams has turned into a one car team now.

This is a sad day and a new low for Williams. Nothing against Pastor, but when a future star is pushed away from the team so a pay driver can take his place, is a sad state of affairs for Williams.
Perhaps its best to sell the team now, before it dies a slow painful death.you can't argue with results.

Ready between the lines (okay, between the lines of the fine print because this is grasping at straws!) is it possible that Frank has something up his sleeve for 2012/13?
Evidence? Well the last time Sir Frank wanted to put a driver out on loan he had a new manufacture coming on board and put a rookie in the seat for a year.
Trying to sign Nico on a log term deal, but putting him out on loan with a small team whilst raking in the dough from a wealthy rookie could hint at that possibility again.
Add to that, we have the VW group sniffing around F1, could that be the link!
Ok - grasping at straws I know - but I'm snowed in here people and my mind is wandering.All other opinions are wrong....
Disheartened Lando Norris rules out any chance of an F1 race win soon. Lando Norris has had limited chances to claim his maiden F1 win since 2019 and doesn't expect to see the top step on the podium...
