In 2006, he scored 19 points in the races he did at the end of the season, including a 2nd place finish behind Button at the chaotic race in Hungary. This guy should have been promoted to a race seat at McLaren already.Denthúl wrote:I wouldn't mind de la Rosa getting a seat, although not at the expense of Heidfeld.
