I read somewhere that williams scored less than 1% of redbulls total points haul in 2011

... less than 1%

2012 is a big year for williams, another performance like that again and they'll never make it back

agreed, they need top ten finishes.

at least.

[sh@un]

I like the thought of Gonzo eating piss-cones

[tweety bird]

lots of rumours about bruno going to Williams.

thoughts?

[ctjet]

Doesnt seem like he brings enough coin to the party

Now with AT&T gone, looks like Rubens might be back in the seat. Which is a shame, because i dont rate Rubens at all

Would love for Sutil to get it, but not hearing much about him at all

[tweety bird]

if burno had a better season with renault, he might have had a better chance of staying in f1 but i think the best he can hope for is as a number three driver.

i sill don't think he has what it takes to be champion atm, he might come good later.

maybe.

fcuk she's hot airbrished

But she is crazy hot...though should never speak

Williams seems to be going the way of Tyrrel I know they exist as a race team that owns everything so dont have some of the pressures of other teams in debt or with need for infrastructure....but they are going backwards and have not had a very good season since Heidfeld-Webber where they were at least hunting podiums and top 5 finishes. They look at looong way from there these days.

I really hope they turn it around in 2012, but even thought Maldanado wasnt terrible and Rubens can still get the job done on his day...but they need momentum and that means a top level driver, and a 203 year plan to build engineering staff and pace

[Berk]

203 year plan. Is that a dig at Williams, saying it would take them 2 centuries of strategic planning and concentration to get back in the game or a typo?

Either way I LOLed

[Roy]

lol...203 yrs may be closer to the mark but was supposed to be 2-3

[tweety bird]

the date has been set.

Kimi Raikkonen will return to Formula 1 action in a 2010-specification Renault at Valencia on January 23-24.A Lotus team source has confirmed to AUTOSPORT that Raikkonen will have two days of running in the Renault R30 to re-acclimatise to F1 machinery after not having driven a grand prix car since the 2009 season finale in Abu Dhabi.

The team has been working on scheduling a test since he was originally signed for 2012, as reported by AUTOSPORT magazine last month.

While the two-year-old Renault cannot run on Pirelli's race rubber, it should at least give Raikkonen the chance to familiarise himself with the specification of tyre used for demo running.

Raikkonen had a seat fitting at Lotus's Enstone base last week. Speaking last month, he said that he expects to have little trouble getting back up to speed.

"I don't think I've lost any speed," he told the Lotus official website. "Getting on top of the tyres will be the hardest thing, of course, but I'm not really worried.

"We don't test the new car until February, so it's a long wait. However, I should be able to jump into a two-year-old F1 car in January.

"Learning Pirelli's tyres will be the most important job as it's a different approach from what I experienced before."

Bruno Senna "will race for Williams" this season according to one of his backer, Brazil's richest businessman Eike Batista.

Last season, Brazilian company EBX announced that they would sponsor Senna when the 28-year-old stepped up to replace Nick Heidfeld at Lotus Renault GP.

And it appears that the company, which is headed by Batista, will continue to back the Brazilian.

Senna, though, is currently without a Formula One race-seat for this year's Championship, although rumours have linked him to Williams.

And although the 28-year-old insists that for now they are just rumours, Batista is adamant it's only a matter of time before the deal is announced.

"Simple, he will race for Williams," Batista tweeted.
