Yeah, know what you mean, I know Bourdais didn't perform well - apart from a solid effort at Monaco when he used his 1 stopper to full effect UNLIKE A CERTAIN JAPANESE DRIVER... - but to be sacked by Text message is a joke. And also the way they made him wait to have his seat confirmed whilst they gave Buemi - a total rookie - the nod straight away and their interest in Takuma Crash-to was pathetic, especially as he performed pretty well in the second half of last year.
I hope Bourdais is given another chance somewhere, I don't think he was meant for the bitchy atmosphere at post-Berger Toro Rosso.
Now Nakajima only just avoided going onto my dislike list because he's still in a Williams and anything is still possible (although very unlikely).

Toro Rosso only narrowly made it off my Jeers list because Red Bull are fighting Brawn for the title. Ironically, I used to like Toro Rosso a lot more, always more than Red Bull, but after the crap STR have been pulling this year (Particularly with regard to Bourdais) they've plummeted in my estimation. If it wasn't for the Title battle, I'd prefer Red Bull now.
