[What's Burning?]

Wait and see how Perez goes before making any true predictions. And belittling Mercedes? I think the constant McLaren belittling will bite Lewis fans in all honesty.

That's fair enough, but I still didn't hear you state an opinion as to whether letting him go was a bad move. If you're going to wait and see how Perez does before making up your mind, Perez will have to become a two time WDC with McLaren before the McLaren brass can fully be satisfied with the decision.

Sauber now just 12 points behind Merc, as Brackley fail to score again.

I am beginning to think Mercedes should of retired Nico and not MSC at the end of the year.

Err...did you see what happened to Nico?

Old man Schumacher was running 8th until a puncture dropped him out. Neither of which were Mercedes' or drivers faults.

Much that I'd like to see Schumacher continue racing, I'd rather he'd retire than spend another season at Mercedes and endure a 4th terrible car.

[Jabberwocky]

indeed, I actually meant that Nico has been terrible of late.

No, I guess you'd much rather see someone else endure that terrible car.

And you may just see that terrible car transform into a regular race winner in the hands of someone else

What good is a pole setting car if it doesn't get you to the finish line? Time and time and time again.

Unless the someone you have in mind is an F1 engineer I very much doubt it.

I noticed on Ted's Notebook this weekend that Mercedes have pinched Lotus' main Aero engineer....

[Plane_Jane]

did they pinch him on the bottom?

The Lotus is a slippery beast

[LRW]

did they pinch him on the bottom?

No. On the nipple. So it was more of a tweak I suppose....?
