I hope he atleast get's a ride if not for just the pleasure of seeing the Senna name back in F1. Sadly I missed his GP2 season so I cannot make an educated guess or assumption as to if he showed any promise. Also he look's so much like Ayrton I know I will/would get chills seeing him in the pit's.

He was good. As good as Ayrton??? cant say that. What was Ayton like before he hit the big time. Good? Yes. The best? Not always. Love to see Bruno in F1, I think he'd be good.

Ayrton was a clever man off the track as well. Look how his and Martin Brundel's (the man that beat him the year before he go into F1) careers went differently because Aryton though about his situation.

Ayrton being the 'up front and this is what I think or believe' type of person he was would not have imho said that about Bruno without it having a strong degree of merit. I do have a sense of regret in that so much time has gone by without Bruno racing ie the years before his GP2 experience.

If Bruno does infact get a ride for next season I will be one of his strongest supporter's , something I have been missing for a few season's now since MS retired.

There are so many talented young drivers at the moment that I am following with interest, the addition of another senna (while enticing a prospect as it might seem) might be little more then media hype.

Bruno Senna may now have signed a deal to make his Formula One debut with the new Spanish team Campos in 2010, according to Auto Motor und Sport. The Brazilian is said to bring substantial personal sponsorship – rumoured at more than €10m - as the arrival of up to four new teams next year signals the return of a pay-driver era. Favourite to be his team-mate is Pedro de la Rosa.

Also eyed by the new teams Campos, Manor and Lotus is Vitaly Petrov who finished the 2009 GP2 championship in second place while promising a hefty €15m to a Formula One employer for next season.

The Brazilians Lucas di Grassi (€7m) and Nelson Piquet (€5m) can also offer sponsorship to a 2010 team, as can the respectively Mexican and Venezuelan Sergio Perez and Pastor Maldonado.



The new Malaysian-owned Lotus team, meanwhile, is said to be eying Fairuz Fauzy as a team-mate for the highly experienced Toyota refugee Jarno Trulli.

At the top of Manor/Virgin's driver shortlist is the Irish reigning A1GP champion Adam Carroll, who according to Auto Motor und Sport also has sponsorship money in tow. But the 26-year-old is reportedly hesitating, amid uncertainty about which of F1's new teams will actually make it to the Bahrain season opener next March.

He could just turn out a massive disaster...

You may be correct and there is nothing we can do about that. What seem's to be the most highly regarded opinion is that atleast 85% of the member's here would like to see the Senna name back in F1, see if any of Ayrton's opinion about Bruno's driving skill's are true and to have another 'up and comer'. I may be wrong with my assertation yet it is just my humble opinion.

I think the biggest issue is that he might get into F1 because of his name but he will never live up to his name. I hope he does a good job but he will have massive mountain to climb to live up to expectations

[McLaren Fan]

Bruno's surname has helped, but I think he's genuinely earned a decent shot at Formula One.

I think his first name helped.

I think his first name helped.

was it a dream or do i remember someone saying so before.. ?? Holy crap - it was a dream !!

[hypertek]

it will be exciting to see what he can do, but also very tough because there is still alot of great talent still in the current f1 with experience, 3 world champions soon too be a 4th and talent like vettel *now with more experience* .
