Gotta break this to you.

Senna may be out at HRT and replaced by Yamamoto.

According to Joe Saward:

We hear that Bruno Senna will not be racing this weekend at the British Grand Prix, the team having decided to replace the Brazilian with Japanese pay-driver Sakon Yamamoto. It seems that the decision was taken because the team wants money. The news is expected to be announced shortly.

[scotty]

[vaptin]

Alternatively, Who is Sakon Yamamoto?

He diddn't deserve to be kicked out,its very harsh.

Did you see F1 in '06/7? He's a total liability and joke driver.

Senna 2nd - 2 Wins

Yamagay - 23rd 1 Points Finish.

Pay drivers suck.

Ow.

[What's Burning?]

How much money is he bringing?!?! HRT must be in dire financial straits.

[vindicator86]

This is nonsense .
I hope he doesnt have to sit out the rest of the season.

Ayrton just turned in his grave. Nice one Hispania you dipsticks.

SAKON YAMAMOTO.

Okay, now I've literally heard it all.

[madbrad]

Yes this is indeed quite bizzare.
Ayrton complained that he was till paying for drives even though he was winning races. A guy like Bruno could be a pay driver. I'm sure he can cet sponsor money easy. Probably more and easier than Yankmymojo. Then he could have a drive in one of the new teams. Or if he is so good he shouldn't need to pay, then he is good enough to drive for a team that doesn't need pat drivers. HRT should have had pay drivers all along. Bruno should be at Lotus, or even in one of the established teams.

[SaintDean]

this is crazy, it says just for Silverstone but it also doesnt disclose Ayrton not racing for them again!

Well theirs a 13th slot im sure they will be on the look out.

If I remember right he did a couple of races for Super Aguri in there first year and got 6th, I think, Fastest lap in Brazil, Pretty impressive. Didn't amount to much after, he's got a shed load of Japanese cash though

Think you may be getting him massively confused with Kobayashi...?
