Hey people, I'm still out of time lately...these exams are going to kill me...

Well, it's been reported some rumours that Piquet may appear on Force India next year...nothing very concrete, but who knows.

I don't have much time to translate the whole news here now, but, there you go with the relevant part about what he said to IG site(the site that first confirmed Barrichello in Williams)

"Estou próximo da Force India no momento. Ainda estaou no proceso de decidir o que vou fazer no futuro", declarou o ex-piloto da Renault, que também não descartou — mas não mostrou muito entusiasmo — uma participação no automobilismo norte-americano. "Isso tudo é muito interessante para mim e, talvez, eu fique mais um ano na Europa antes de vir para cá. Ainda está tudo muito em aberto", explicou.

"I'm very close to make a deal with Force India now. I'm still deciding what I'm going to do about my future" said the Renault ex-driver, who didn't discard - but didn't show much entusiam - the possibility of runnig in the north-american motoring."All these things are very interesting for me and, maybe, I stay in Europe one year more before coming here. I'm still studying the options", he expalained.

Only rumours, but who knows...

Force India deserves better...

Bad choice!

I'll give Piquet the benefit of the doubt *should* he drive for Force India; Renault wasn't the best team for him to start his F1 career under the management of Flavio Briatore. Despite his misdemeanour in 2007; I think he deserves a second chance; if he crashes every other race then I'll say that he need to take up a career in radio control car racing!

For once - I broke this news first! *

There is an Autosport Article for this interview: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/80168.


To me it doesn't say anything except he could be in NASCAR or Formula One.

yeah as the water boy maybe.

surley foce india can do a lot better than him? The likes of trulli (experienced driver) are out of contract, although his consistency will let him down for them. Could they afford Heidfeld?

Neither Trulli or Heidfeld are available if the rumour mill is correct; Trulli is supposedly off to Lotus and Heidfeld is reported to be off to Brawn/Mercedes.

Of course, rumours are just that, I wouldn't put much faith in rumours, especially in Formula 1!

[vaptin]

has trulli signed anything yet? Alright force india won't be able to stop nick going to mclaren, but turlli to a new team. There's also heki, why is he worse than piquet?

[myownalias]

Lotus have signed a driver who hasn't been named yet but I believe that is Jarno Trulli. I don't believe that Heidfeld is going to McLaren; it's reported that he's off to Brawn aka Mercedes F1 next season, announcement is believe imminent according to Bud's post in the "Brawn Next Year" thread!

I ain't heard no fat lady...

[myownalias]

Who mentioned any fat lady? But I believe that the Brawn/Mercedes tie up is a done deal and they would probably like an all German driver line up!

[pilotfriend]

I am sorry, but I am amazed that he has the gall to show is face anywhere in the motor sport world. He is a spoilt dangerous little cheat and nothing will change my mind on this.

Good, He deserves another chance. He does what he's told and obeys orders... that to me is a good sign and I would give him a chance
