I'd like to see a straight swap with sauber, but I don't want perez going to the red bar stewards if they are doing a 1-2 setup. He should be allowed to battle alonzo.

Brilliant!!!

With regards to Perez, he said he will stay at Sauber for the remainder of the year. That shows some class since Sauber has been good to him and invested in him. But Sauber may give him their blessing if Ferrari throws enough money.

If I was Dominicali, I would sack Massa and bring in one of the talented old timers that can help tune a car, knowing that unless they are the second coming, they are just there to help develop the car and support Alo. I am sure some of the folks cooling their heels as backmarkers or test drivers would love to show what they can do in a halfway decent car to try and attract a drive for 2013. Then bring Perez in at the end of the year when Sauber releases him.

2013, doesn't have many changes to the regs does it? When do the vacuum cleaner engines get jammed into the cars?

In 2014 they will bring something that I think might, just might catch on with road cars.

Isn't 2013 when they're supposed to have a starter on board and also only use electric power in pit lane?

Hadn't heard about the starter before, guess a charged KERS would do the job though.

Lewis:
"In Turkey 2010, I led the race and was told to back off to save fuel and JB had also been told to back off and hold position. Then he overtook me, just as Sebastian did to Mark. That was tough. So I understand the feelings Mark had."
