F1 » Brawn talks 'have not broken down', insists Button's manager

My prediction for what it is worth: JB helped out Brawn by taking a pay cut, he was lucky to win the WDC and had an appalling 2H09. Brawn are now Mercedes F1 and they already have Rosberg, now I think they may tempt Schumi from retirement for 1 year. Whilst Brawn GP may have wanted to keep JB it is no longer their decision,Stuggart are pulling the strings, so in short JB is out of Brawn and Mcl would love to still have a No1 on their car (2 years running) with Merc gone Ron will be back bashing heads, they will buy BMW engine division and post 2013/2015 have their own engine. Let's hop JB doesn't get screwed by Anthony Hamilton and it's a fair fight. Ross has sold out but who can blame him?

F1 » Hamilton: McLaren 'on the edge' after 'rollercoaster' '09

I am no Lewis fan but yes he did lie, and Dave Ryan paid the ultimate price and lost his job. Lewis made a mistake in this high pressure sport, it is still not excusable but it was a mistake. Schey used to run people off the road which in my book is a far greater issue than lying. However you can not take it away from McLaren or lewis they turned around what had started to look like a s*** year into a great ending. Well done and people said they wouldn't do it because Lewis hasn't got the experience. Well he proved them doubters wrong. I await the abuse (not a LH fan anyway)

F1 » Pirelli rules out replacing Bridgestone in F1

Bernie would do an under the counter deal to get a supplier "here you go a few millions US Dollars" now supply the teams, I would love it to get to February with no supplier, then they would be forced into testing again, maybe no supplier will come forward and everyone will sue Bernie, and he could end uo losing everything!!!!!! MMmmmmm nice idea but that's never going to happen whatever we think of him he never fails to have a forward plan.

F1 » Toyota announces it is quitting F1

I said yesterday that this would happen and it has, issues they had were simple, too much Japanese board room control, they should never have sacked MG as technical head and they should have got two decent drivers, no disrespect to Trulli but I am afraid he is indeed past his prime. Feel really sad for Kobya he really impressed in his two outings.

F1 » Ecclestone: I want more F1 races

MY LAST THOUGHT & THE REALITY: Everyone on this thread could pick a great circuit with history, passion and a great spectacle. What all these threads show is that if "we" could run the show and just make a minimal net, net, net profit to cover cost's F1 would be a far better sport than it is now. Thanks to everyone the circuits listed makes me want to go back a few years and watch all my VCR tapes.

F1 » Ecclestone: I want more F1 races

@ F1 Novice: I almost agree, the Americans go round in a circle at 200+ MPH for hours, not sure that means their Kahooners are bigger than F1 drivers? I used to watch the PPG Indy Car series and the mixture of Oval and normal tracks was just right, I have found with Ovals it gets very boring very quickly.

Whatever formula he competes in I hope he dumps the stupid baseball cap and goes back to a normal version.

F1 » Williams reveals 2010 F1 driver line-up

JETwin: Frank has to whatever he is doing for the benefit of Williams it has to be for F1 as well, because apart from the Qatar Tecnology centre and building cars for lower fomula's, they do not have anything else to do.

Didn't Mansell have a couple of cracking races BA?

F1 » Williams reveals 2010 F1 driver line-up

I believe they said they were going to continue to develop it, but have agreed not too race it. Frank obviously has an agenda whatever it is will be in the interest of Williams! "as always"
