There were flashes of form at Williams in 2005, and his four years spent at BMW-Sauber from 2006 to 2009 yielded eight rostrum finishes – but sadly no grand prix victory. A consistent performer – witness his records for the most consecutive race classifications at 41, and most finishes in a season with 18 in 2008 – who has often been rated as one of the most underrated drivers in the field, Heidfeld’s inability to adapt to Bridgestone’s new qualifying tyre in 2008 left him on the back foot and saw him come off second-best in comparison with emerging team-mate Robert Kubica.


Qualifying tyre. :confused: Last time I checked quali tyres have been gone for quite some time. Heidfeld struggled for one lap pace in 2008 :thumbup:

Linked with the vacant berth at Renault alongside Kubica, Scuderia Toro Rosso and for a long time Mercedes itself – before it became apparent that the seat was being reserved for someone of altogether greater significance – it seems that Heidfeld has now pledged his future allegiance to the three-pointed star.

Toro Rosso? Where do these guys get their info?


None the less, it seems money is still getting the better of Formula 1 and Heidfeld will be stuck do nothing for Mercedes this year unless Rosberg or Schumacher break a leg.

That is a pity Nick won't be on the grid next year. The reserve role at Mercedes may bring him a drive in 2011 if Michael only does a single year back in F1.

Such a shame that it looks like heidfeld won't be on the grid, he will be hoping schumi can't make a whole season.


Just has to hide his zimmer.

i think the teams are missing a great opportunity not signing him maybe he dosnt have the out right racing mind set but he is super consistent and that could be a winner for a team after a respectable finish in the championship, Experienced consistent guy or a rookie ? its a no brainer
