So, I would like to se Grosjean, Senna and Raikkonen back in the F1. What do you think? Are there any promising rookies like this year's Di Resta and Perez?

[acosmichippo]

If the last three races are any indication, Di Resta definitely should be back next year.

I'm wondering when Shumacher and Barrichello will finally give it up.

[vlad]

I think it's about time they do!

[Jabberwocky]

I don't think we will see Kimi in an F1 car soon

[What's Burning?]

Perez and di Resta should both be back, It's a shame the Hulk doesn't have a drive. We really may not see Schumacher back next year. Which of the Toro Rosso boys will be out, Buemi or Alguersuari?

That being said, it's way too early to be discussing this given the nature of F1.

I think schumi is going to stay around, the merc is actually catching up in pace and by next year I think they will be contenders again.

I would really like to see Hulkenberg back, I almost forgot about him! It's a great driver!

[killem2]

Yeah I don't understand why pastor maldando got a seat who is a rookie, in place of a rookie.

[vlad]

In a place of a rookie that was way better than him...

[Frontrunner]

Daniel Ricciardo

Also a good possibility.

I doubt Kimi Raikkonen will be back now. He's won a world title and he then seemed to loose interest at Ferrari. He'll probably do a Hakkinen and turn "a break" into retirement from F1.

I agree with you about Grosjean, he didn't really get a great chance to show himself back in 2009. Unfortunately, most people will remember him for being part of that pile up on the first lap at Spa, involving Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton. Hope he gets another chance.

As for this year's rookies, I'm sure we'll Di Resta in 2012, and hopefully Perez, although the latter has yet to soar to the heights he did in Melbourne. Bit of a rough outing at Shanghai... We also need to see more from Maldonado and D'Ambrosio, but given their current situations with their teams' form, it'll be hard for them.

I really, really want to see Nico Hulkenberg back. He really impressed me in the second half of 2010, and would most surely have been at Williams this year had it not been for financial reasons (I think Maldonado had a bulging wallet)...

[vlad]

Yes, we all know the reason why is Maldonado in Williams!

Yes, we all know the reason why is Maldonado in Williams!

Unfortunately, unless you're a manufacturer backed team or have significant other backing; the only option in F1 right now is to have one or more pay drivers, it's either that or drop out of F1!

I will never get over the fact that Milos Pavlovic couldn't find his way to F1! I hope you know who I'm talking about...
