Roy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Agree, he has been awesome in his first two races. Showing more promise then all the other GP2 hacks that have arrived in F1 this year.

Roy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Well, here on UK tv they are saying Press Release in 60minutes confirming Toyota withdrawl I wanted to see them hang around, so many new teams next year...its going to be a circus nxt year with Lotus, Manor, USF1 and all these fresh fish Their new boy has some promise and i wanted to see the guy give it a go next year. I cant believe, Honda, Toyota and BMW are not even interested in hanging around as engine suppliers Toyota should just throw their money an resources at Williams and let Frank & Patrick do their thing Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/250076-2009-f1-season/page/115/#findComment-4917636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh@un Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Obviously none of them can justify the expense anymore. Honda used to make some of the best F1 engines, but they still gave away the supplier gig.

Roy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Nakajima wasnt too bad, he was better then most of the GP2 hacks that have come through of late. Kobayashi (Spelling?) had real promise and i would like to see the guy back. I read somewhere that Sato was in with a chance at Lotus?!?!?! Like i said, all these new teams, its laughable that they are coming in with old has been drivers, no testing, no budget, no manufacturer support or even engine deals. Its going to be a circus next year with so much carnage and mechanical failures....its back to the 90s Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/250076-2009-f1-season/page/115/#findComment-4917733 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctjet Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) Toyota 'set to leave Formula 1' Toyota is to hold a press conference at 0800 GMT on Wednesday amid reports that it is to quit Formula 1. Japanese media claims that the world's largest car manufacturer is set to leave F1 in an attempt to cut costs. Williams announced last week that it would be replacing its Toyota engine with a Cosworth for next season. Toyota has not won a grand prix since making its F1 debut in 2002 and finished fifth in the constructor championship this season. Long-term Toyota driver Jarno Trulli was second in last month's Japanese Grand Prix, equalling the team's best finish to a race, which they achieved on four other occasions. Japanese driver Kamui Kobayashi joined Trulli for the final two races of the season after regular driver Timo Glock was injured. Germany's Ralf Schumacher, France's Olivier Panis and Britain's Allan McNish have also all driven for Toyota over the years. Honda and BMW have already left F1 and Toyota's withdrawal would leave the sport with no Japanese team. Japanese tyre firm Bridgestone announced on Monday that it would not be renewing its contract to supply F1 after its current deal runs out at the end of the 2010 season.

Roy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 The real question is if the Concorde agreement means nothing to Toyota then i am not convinced that Renault are not for sale to the likes of Prodrive-Richards etc. Irrespective of signing Kubica, the team is up against it in a time where it has less money then Honda, BMW and Toyota, their prospects for next season are grim with a poor car, new drivers and losses in engineering departments. So, what are the odds if Toyota do call it quits in 10minutes time that Renault will also hand over the team to the likes of Prodrive????

sh@un Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Heidfeld's been cited as a possibility for McLaren next year if the Raikkonen thing doesn't happen. Suits me; He seems to be Mr Consistency, and could even be up the pointy end on a regular basis with a better car. I'm sure Mercedes would love working the German driver angle, too. Lewis scoring podiums + Nick finishing well into the points all season = WCC trophy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/250076-2009-f1-season/page/115/#findComment-4917798 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 McLaren washed their hands of Heidfeld years ago and Kimi wants a seat. Kimi will be at McLaren before Heidfeld. i think they would be chasing Rosberg, Sutil, Glock and Heiki before they go Heidfeld, but nothing would surprise me. I still cant see why Rosberg would chose Brawn over McLaren....and i cant see how Rosberg isnt the best pic on the market after Kimi so McLaren have some good options before going to Heidfeld Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/250076-2009-f1-season/page/115/#findComment-4917826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
