Driver Line Ups 2008

[Christina]

how come so many people are writing off Nick Heidfeld? he's been pretty damn quick this year! and consistent... does that not count for something?

[ChrisS]

Can someone please explain the situation with Vettel to me

As far as I know he is at BMW on a 2 year loan from Red Bull, So how is BMW going to loan him to STR?

Good calls
Webber will be at Renualt Next year with Pickets Jr (Piquet)
Cubica is also in the firing line his speed form last year has gone along with Michelin.
Fisi to Red Bull
Heiki to Aguri
Davo to Honda
Rubins Retires along with DC

there is no way kubica is going anywhere, he will be in f1 for many years to come and i predict success. he wouldv finished 4th in melbourne beating nick heidfeld and wouldv finished 5th-6th in sepang as well if not for his mechanical problems and so forth and nick running into him at sepang.

He has been outqualified by Nick a few times but nick has had a bit lighter fuel and also kubica has been on the pace if not beating nick for a lot of the free practise sessions even though that doesn't say much. Don't get me wrong, i am not saying heidfeld isn't good, he is very underrated and a terrific consistent driver but kubica is very quick and young and just needs more experience and some better luck and he will produce some good results. remember how much more experienced Nick is than Robert. BMW have a great driver line up and at the way they are going could fight for race wins next year and even maybe late this season if they are lucky.

Don't get me wrong, he's young and new tracks to him.
But Mario Theissen is said to be concerned that last years pace shown by him hasn't translated to this year. (as by M.Brundle on ITV's broadcast of the GP of Bahrain)
BMW seam to want results sooner than later. or so it seams.

no new tracks for him he already drove all of them last year as a 3rd driver.

man - news wise this season is boring as hell!! somebody needs to piss in the other guy's race car and liven this **** up. Hopefully next year we can get a live wire in here and create some excitement between races. either that or we are going to need a scedule like Nascar

F1 will never be as exciting as CrashCAR, or even Champ(let's bring the safety car out)car; it's the nature of the races. So having two compounds was introduced to help us stay awake, maybe we should have more contrived things to liven it up, like black flagging cars at random.

Actually the Two tyre compounds where pushed by Bridgestone. As now they are the only tyre supplier the focus was going off them, they wanted people talking about tyres, Hense thats why they pushed for two compounds per race. Bring their Company into the fore.
