A sensible approach by Lotus Renault. They can not afford to go with two very young drivers.

How come VP was complaining about how RK was not sharing anything with him? And what makes him such a good driver all of the sudden? The last race last year for parking his car in front of FA?

The dude has a whole a lot to learn especially because this car is not the car he drove last year and Renault needs someone with a lot of experience. And in fact, if last year they had hired an experienced driver rather than him, right Renault would wonder who is going to develop the car this year. And no, Petrov cannot do it.

There's no need to get all pissy just because I proved you wrong. The rest of your rant was worthless and I'm frankly uninspired to say anything about it. :rolleyes:

I said on page 2 of this thread that they need an experienced driver, and I listed Quick Nick as a viable option. Since it looks like he's in pole position for the seat, it appears the team is feeling what many of us here are feeling.

I never said he was supposed to move his car over. But saying that thos guy is such a super driver superior to Kubika simply because of that race seems to be an over reaction. Petrov did what anyone would have done: fight to keep his seat and he succeeded. Koodos to him. However from here to say that he kicked RB but is really an overreaction.

Sounds like a massive contradiction there and a point made without a great deal of thought.

No, no no. I am all for a balance. You need a promising younger driver in your team paired with an experienced one. Sorry if my though wasn't too clear.

I hope he'll do well. This is most likely his last chance. He always seemed to have the potential to do very well but over the years he has not been able to deliver.

And how did you prove me wrong? You are the one who said that Petrov was sooooooooooo much better than Kubica. When it's exactly the opposite of what you wrote at least if you asked Renault.
