I don't buy it. He's obviously afraid of Alonso.

I'd be afraid of beating Alonso as a teammate, we all know how well that goes...

Anyways, more gossip. Hulkenburg to Lotus? That is funny that because he goes from one team where he doesn't get paid and if he went to Lotus, that will be another team he goes to where he won't be paid

Not if you have the whole team and the media behind you!

He refused to comment about his pay when a Sky reporter asked him at the last gp

Doesn't that give us indication that s*** is brewing? Otherwise, he'd deny all rumours...

I don't think Hülkenberg would be staying at Sauber next year even if he wanted to, unfortunately. Given that they're rumoured to be taking Sirotkin as a result of the Russian funding and they're likely to still need the money Gutiérrez brings, that doesn't really leave room for Hülkenberg. So him moving to Lotus or Ferrari are his only options, really.

Ferrari have denied that and said they arent looking at the driver market. This to me hints that they will probably keep Massa on for 2014.

Does anyone think that, should Ferrari not have positive results at Spa and Monza, they will give up on 13 and be the first to throw all their eggs in the 14 basket?

Does anyone still believe in that "Give up on this season and work on the next to gain an advantage" theory? Because I think this worked till the mid 2000s...and the F1 operation now is so big that teams are able to work on multiple projects with enough resources without affecting the current season. Mercedes says they have already started on their 2015 (yes, fifteen) blue prints and I'm sure this is the same for all the top teams. Only McLaren seem to believe that old adage for some reason.

Honda/Brawn in 2008/09 - won them the title!

It's all about big wallets and big backing for some teams, as we all know too well.

I doubt Hulkenberg would've wanted to stay at Sauber though. Too many problems, and it's been a big step back for him from last season.

Brawn only won because they found a loophole in the regs with their double diffuser,giving them an early season advantage while the others caught up,when they did,Red Bull had the best car and Brawn were languising in lower end of the top 8 most of the time(other than a 1-2 at Monza,and 1st at Valencia with Barrichello),boosted by Red Bulls lack of points early in the season,the first 2 races Vettel didn't finish and lost 20 points to Button and finished the season only 14 points behind,Australia was a big fail though,lost a podium in the last 5 laps by tangling with Kubica.

No...the car was nothing special, it was simply a technicality featuring something which everyone else thought illegal (could actually be defined legal) and the car was built around this loophole. When the other teams caught up 3/4 into the season with their own improvisations, Brawn GP was at best the 3rd best car.
