Heidfield confirmed

What are / were they thinking, he is about as interesting as a bowl of soup,

They should have given Senna the chance he would shine in the right car and team.
If interesting as a bowl of soup means he consistently brings in points then that's what RF1 wants. Remember the old Chinese curse: May you live in interesting times....

but it still wouldn't have been 2 rookies in the team would it?, it would have been button and a rookie.


Yes but I still think Senna given the chance would shine

well, we'll have to agree to disagree mate  :smiley:

I think the highly succesful and experienced renault f1 team might know what they're doing tho'.  :wink:

No massive shock but Heidfeild confirmed as Kubica replacement.

Kubica's surgery was a success too  :smiley:
Very unlucky for him, if the car lives up to expectations he could have definitely been in the title hunt

So what happens if Heidfeld's Renault turns out to be awesome and he's in with a good shout for the driver's title when Kubica wants to come back???  :huh:


Keeping schtum. Mostly.

let's be honest, that ain't going to happen, even with their amazing exhaust system.
