Susie Wolff has joined Williams as a development driver. She's married to Toto, who owns a large chunk of the team. Anyway, here's what Bernie thinks about it Quote: If Susie is as quick in a car as she looks good out of a car then she will be a massive asset to any team Sir Frank Williams wrote: Susie is a talented, successful and highly professional racing driver who competes in one of the world’s most fiercely-contested racing series. Susie will join Williams as a Development Driver, in which capacity she will assist us with the development of our simulator and other technical challenges. Susie will also undertake some aerodynamic testing of the FW34 and a full track test in the coming months. Susie will also attend a number of races with us. I should add that, as Susie is married to Toto Wolff, a Director of Williams, her appointment was carefully considered and then approved by the Board, with Toto recusing himself from the process

She was just about able to beat Legge in DTM. Not the best women's driver but not the worst either. Also, Bahar. Sorry that Lotus has had to suffer for his incompetence but, then again, no-one was forced to listen to his crap. |

If F1 wants a female driver, Someone needs to give Simona De Silvestro a proper test. |

Great press release from Lotus, quite refreshingly fun if a little angry. |

So that's what happens when the robotic PR speak is dropped and real people get behind the press releases while the person who is supposed to handle press matters is out on a cig break |

Well, it's astonishingly simple really. At the end of the day (sorry to turn into MOTD pundit Alan Hansen), no-one really has the right to call a racing team 'Lotus'. The name died in the 1990s and should have been left that way. |
