^ Good post. I personally thought he'd beat Delarosa, judging by his Jordan days when he surprised a lot of people for the 1st half of the season.

Now though, it just seems he's there to bring up the rear of the grid...talented enough for F1? He's quite old, and doesn't seem to be going places...so I'd prefer a young driver getting a taste of F1 in his seat and with a chance to move up. Delarosa is a solid driver if nothing else, and beating him still bears merit IMO.

Breaking News:Lewis Hamilton has officially overtaken The Fonz in race wins. With 88 races less. Lol(Without a specially built blown diffuser, illegal front wing, preferential treatment)

De la Rosa is said to be at the wrong places in the wrong time.However I can't really say something about that since I don't know much about his past career.He was actually good in 2010 in my opinion,to beat him one should be merit for me too.Also I agree that Karthikeyan is quite old now,but he definetely paved a way for the young Indian drivers.
