I really enjoyed the occasional spot of giant killing from Kovalainen, like snatching 16th and a Q2 exit a few times such as at Bahrain, but for all of that, the fate of Caterham's constructors championship position would always come down to the races of blind nocturnal defecation and who managed to steal a 12th place or not ... without Brazil, they'd have lost out to Marussia who never had even those rare flashes of potential midfield mediocrity.

Being slightly cynical, it almost makes more sense to have a mediocre driver who's not going to trouble the car by attempting to be competitive on a day like that when an opportunity might present itself to a Kovalainen to race for the dizzying heights of 14th and possibly end up in a collision, but will be so preoccupied with not crashing he'll do a decent job of keeping the car going and trailing around in some 'lowly but a bit higher than their rivals' position like 12th. I rate both Glock and Kovalainen as capable drivers, deserving of a place in F1 on ability moreso than those they've been replaced by, but they were ultimately wasting their time a bit in their later roles, sadly ...

On the subject of slightly unusual burger raw (hopefully later cooked) materials, I'd have to say that wild boar is delicious, it's like eating the essence of pure meatiness ...

I thought that was already well known? He commented on it at the press launch for this year's car, at the very least ...

I think this sort of works for F1 winter journalism ... news.

Force India haven't announced their drivers yet!!

I wonder how big the news will be. In most cases announcing the announcement is actually more newsworthy than the announcement itself.

Probably that he will join Mercedes DTM (he tested one recently). I thought his arms couldn't operate anymore in a single seater (too small).

I heard that Karthikeyan is in the mix for the seat now :o

Quote:
Force India F1 owner Mallya asserted that he should not be lambasted for not running an Indian driver at the Silverstone-based squad, hinting that the present standard – or, to put it another way, Messrs. Chandhok and Karthikeyan – is not sufficiently high as to merit a seat there.


Money, Mallya sadly doesn't got much of it nowadays...

Good news for Di Resta. First time he will defeat a teammate.

Which may give Di Resta something to smile about. But I doubt it.

Don't worry. Force India will fuck up the strategy so badly that it doesn't matter which driver wins - they both lose.

I think in 10 years time my abiding memory of Force India will be a team whose German drivers did awesomely well in wet/dry conditions but never quite managed to bring home that result ... that and an over-riding but entirely baseless, easily disproved suspicion that Vijay Mallya was in fact an Indian alter-ego for Flavio Briattore.

Well Jaime Alguersuari tweeted a picture of a snowy field at Silverstone... you can be damn sure he wasn't testing anything today!

In the end, I guess it will be the most obvious one: Bianchi. FI is just toying with the drivers(Jimmy A included )

My guess would be Bianchi as #2, Alguersuari as #3.

But then again, it could be anyone.

I still think Di Resta might be out. Does he have a contract yet? Karthikeyan brings money, but I think it wouldn't be enough, would it?
Bianchi won't bring much money either...
Having Sutil again would be strange and Alguersuari is just being embarrassing, even though in my opinion, he is a pretty good driver.

So, at the end they will sign Villeneuve and Heidfeld.

That 4th place still means they can't give him an F1 Rejects profile.

Anyway, di Resta has now been signed to a contract.

He still had a more successful junior formula career than Max Chilton...

I remember around 2000, Narain was absolutely mighty around Brands.
