Tony Fernandes has an interesting way of telling us they've signed their first driver


"One Malaysia Formula One team aka Lotus has signed its first driver," the aviation entrepreneur announced on his Twitter feed. "Public announcement soon. The dream continues," he added.

I've got a feeling it'll only be Fauzy. Be nice if it was an established driver or someone like Davidson.

According to that interview with Nelson Piquet, he could go to Force India. He's using circumlocution in this interview. He won't say for sure whether he wants to be in Nascar or Formula One. This is a smart move. If he says, "I want to be in Nascar" then no Formula One teams will sign him. The same goes vice versa.

I dont think they would have a too bad a car and he would be pushed around by Ferrari still.

Finnish dream team.
ish.
Rather have Hakkinen than Kovy, but what can you do...

[ivey]

Omfg today turned everything upside-down. If kimi misses F1, this is a disaster, I rank him as top 3 drivers in the league. Rather have him than Button

You would be surprised by how well Mercades Benz would do with Rosberg and Heidfield, there both good and with a good/ok car Rosberg and Heidfield could do great things.
