Needlessly harsh, Ivey has already stated he is more a new fan with a lot to learn than a years long enthusiast with vast experience and knowledge.

well, haha. I thought a swiss bank bought the team so they'll be competing in 2010 ;D

That is partly accurate, BMW has sold its Formula One team to a Swiss-based foundation named Qadbak Investments.
The new name of the team has not yet been disclosed and has no guaranteed slot in 2010 starting grid.

Hate Kubica, good luck at Renault tho

How can someone hate Kubica?

He's such a nice person.
and he is - at least - the second best driver in F1.
Actually, I'm not really sure that Alonso is better than him.

A nice person I can buy but the second, or potentially the, best driver in F1? I'm not buying that. He may have potential but at the moment I could list a handful of drivers that are better than him.

I'm not actually that convinced about Kubica, he still has plenty to prove imo. Renault looks like a good move for him imo. Kovalainen or Glock at Renault would be great too although I'd like to see Grosjean get a full season in before he gets ditched.

Kubcia seams like an alright person he does moan an awfull lot.

and Nick has got more out of the car than him this season.

[NocturnalTendencies]

Kubi is definitely a force to be reckoned with, I still would have preferred to see him at Ferrari instead of Alonso.
