Indeed, I hope this does happen. The sport - if it does become more fan friendly - desperately needs characters of the JV ilk.Quote:

Adding Jacques to the mix has you salivating , doesn't it ?
Honestly, no. He was a breath of fresh air a decade ago but the moment he moved to BAR he seemed to give up, since when he's never done anything to convince me that he deserves a race seat. His stints at Renault and Sauber were little short of embarrassing.Quote:

Honestly I am very excited at the prospect of JV running the Stefan this season... he was always a favorite of mine, and it was great to see him at the opening ceremonies in Vancouver. Whilst I DO worry about what his pace may be like these days, I'd love to see him take another shot at it, especially if the Stefan really could be a sleeper entry this year. Would somebody please give them some tires, and let them start testing?
And LET THEM RACE!!!

On a lighter note.....I hear Kimi hates waking up early and in rallying the day starts very early. He did quit hockey as a kid cause he didn't want to wake up early to go training :D . So maybe we'll see him back.Quote:

I think if he was in their 09 car they would have won a few races. They just needed some A grade drivers, not Trullis and Glocks. Oh well, hopefully Kazuki can get his skills up and take some podiums. I wanna see this triple diffuser thing they are rumoured to have. I read about it on a ferrari board. A former toyota employee turned ferrari employee said that ferrari's current diffuser isn't all it should be, so i would guess the new toyota would have this said diffuser!
I don't think Kazuki is any faster than Glock or Trulli , he scored no points in a reasonable Williams last year that Rosberg scored 34.5 in ! Neither do I think Kimi would have won a race last year in the Toyota, but it's all down to opinions & guessing what may or may not have happened I suppose.
