Maybe we could see Hulkenberg sooner than we expected! :hehe:


JA on F1
The last time anything like this occurred, albeit less serious in terms of injury, was when Bertrand Gachot was found guilty of assaulting a London taxi driver with CS gas in 1991. His subsequent incarceration led to the hiring by the Jordan team of a 22 year old by the name of Michael Schumacher.


Maybe not to far from the truth...

I bet the back end of an F1 (ie Gearbox and Transmission) that Lewis is kept out of this by Force India :wink:

Well, Lux doesn't work for either Force India or McLaren, so he could easily get LH at least to testify as an eye witness...

it's China... you know there were no eye witnesses.

I wonder what Eric Lux was celebrating anyway.

Bild said it has spoken to eyewitnesses who say Sutil’s friend Lewis Hamilton became nervous when the trendy nightclub became too crowded with fans.
In the melee, Sutil had a drink spilled on him, which is when Lux intervened. It is believed Sutil tried to throw his drink onto Lux when the glass broke, cutting the Genii Capital chief executive in the neck.


If it does come down to being a mistaken drink throw gone wrong then Lux should stop being a bitch about it. Sure I'd be pissed if i got cut, but if he apologised and it was sincere and was truly an accident then let it rest yeah?

Lux could use some of the cash from the lawsuit and develop those front exhausts further. Maybe the exhausts could come out of the drivers helmet next.

May 20 Adrian Sutil’s manager has admitted he is seeking an “amicable” solution with Eric Lux amid the assault scandal that could cost the Force India driver his Formula 1 career or even result in his imprisonment.

Lux, chief executive of the Renault team owner Genii Capital, said this week he is planning filing criminal charges after he was cut on the neck with a broken glass at a postrace nightclub party in Shanghai last month.

But Manfred Zimmermann, Sutil’s manager, told reporters in Barcelona on Thursday that Lux has not actually filed those charges yet.

“We are still looking for an amicable solution between ourselves,” he is quoted as saying by Auto Motor und Sport.

A successful charge of “physical assault and grievous bodily harm” – the complaints mentioned by Eric Lux’s Swiss lawyer – could result in a jail term for Sutil.

And Force India has only committed to honouring the German driver’s contract for the Spanish Grand Prix this weekend, despite Monaco taking place just a week later.

Another potentially explosive element is the possible involvement of Sutil’s friend Lewis Hamilton who also attended the party on the night of thre incident.

The McLaren driver was rapidly whisked away from the M1nt nightclub by his bodyguards shortly after Lux fled with wounds that required more than a dozen stiches at a nearby Shanghai hospital.

Lux’s lawyer had warned that he might take action against “other persons involved in this matter”, but on Thursday Hamilton was not talking about Shanghai.

“I’ve been advised not to say anything,” the Briton is quoted by the Mirror.

Drama drama drama. A bar fight...who cares...but a bar fight where a guy's neck is cut needing a dozen stitches? Now that might just be a little intriguing. It will be interesting to see what details come out on this one. Rumor has it Hamilton held the executive down while Sutil attacked him with a soup spoon.

:) Just kidding.
