BREAKING NEWS: Mclaren are reporting to be switching engine for the 2010 season to Rolls Royce, with the new engine called the "Merlin" they hope to distence themselvs futher from the Mercades team.

Martin whitmash released a statment "with the new engine The essential arithmetic is that our young men will have to shoot down their young men at the rate of four seconds per lap if we're to keep pace at all. ".

You mean this Rolls Royce Engine

But I think the Merlin would sound better.

I can't wait to see Rosberg make c0ck-ups and strange excuses in the Silver Arrow. He will no doubt start saying "This track should suit our car" again.

someone suprising? Err, well I can't see them going for a new driver,

I'd like Kimi to go to the WRC for a year and see what Nick can do in the Mercedes Team.

Good Point. I want Sato back next year. I could see it now: Sato WDC 2010.

NR: "This track should suit our Silver Arrows."

[Monzilla]

No suprise Mercedes signing "Britney" as driver #1 I'm sure the #2 will be more of a suprise...

I think Ross Brawn will kick himself (or eat a whole bunch of bananas) every time Nico says that because it always jinxes the team and car.

The 2nd driver is supposed to surprise. No matter for Mercedes, they have a very capable driver in Rosberg! Anyone else with some skill is a welcome bonus! Perhaps a good development driver, though I wish it would be Kimi. Would like him to stay in F1 and drive for my fav team next year.

I can't help but post this person as an alternative second driver for Mercedes GP. LOL.

Rosberg & Kubica?

Robert Kubica will be free to sign with another Formula One team unless Renault guarantees his seat in the coming weeks, according to a report on Friday in Spain's Diario AS.

The 24-year-old Pole has signed a contract to race with the French squad in 2010, but Renault is contemplating its commitment to Formula One and is set to announce its plans before the end of the year.

AS said that if Kubica is available, Mercedes GP would be interested in signing the former BMW-Sauber driver to be Nico Rosberg's teammate.

The report cited "sources" in claiming that if Renault does not commit to F1 "in the coming weeks" Kubica will be "automatically released" from his contract.

So he goes from saying this

to signing for Renault, and then wanting a Mercedes drive.
