?????????

Sir Frank says the Ferrari pairing is a done deal
MW has not taken up his Williams option (yet), and is a tad cynical about the team's ability to "re-group" which Sam says it must do
JPM prefers American Burgers
Honda is running out of patience with JB, now that the Barra is up and running
DC, god bless his cotton socks, has run out of time.

The Kimi/Schumacher pairing will be an interesting one. though I think the clock is ticking on Michael too
JV take a pay cut
Poor old David ... always the bridesmaid and never cheif bridesmaid at that. Time to move on and keep the models of the world happy.

according to my mail, JV is contemplating offering his services at a reduced rate to prolong his career. I would like to see him stay in F1, and I don't think he is down to his last couple of dollars, yet

[jacfan]

I too would like to see him around a bit longer. Twas just a silly comment.

FERRARI
MS mostly will continue to 2007 and he will use his power in ferrari to keep freindly massa as he want to finish his carrier with high profile, not beatin by kimi
and Kimi not want to join Ferrari that he will strugle early in the season to keep with MS as he will face new team that build according to MS wishes
So I see MS + Massa in 2007

RENAULT
MW-Fisi
Deal alerady done for both.

WILLIAMS
Nico-Wurz
Nico is Investment
Wurz : Why not, money saving approch

McLAREN

BMW
No Change
Jv looking strong just to keep his mouth closed and sing

HONDA
No Change

Rubino. will beat Button easily

TOYOTA

RENAULT

Care to enlighten us how you learned about this deal for MW ?

I have two scenarios based on Kimi Raikkonen.

If Raikkonen stays at McLaren:

McLaren = Alonso and Raikkonen [RD is not afraid of having the top 2 in the sport simultaneously]

Ferrari = M. Schumacher and Massa [Ferrari has no reason to ditch Massa, and they are two cheap to pay for 2 top drivers simultaneously]

Renault = Webber and Fisichella

Toyota = Trulli and Montoya

BMW Sauber = Heidfeld and J. Villeneuve [Both deserve to stay]

Red Bull = Coulthard and Liuzzi

Toro Rosso = Speed and Klein

Honda = Button and Barrichello [They'll give Jenso one last chance year]

Williams = R. Schumacher and Rosberg [Sir Frank is too stupid to put Wurz in the drivers seat]

Midland and Super Aguri [One or both teams will pitch to Anthony Davidson and Lewis Hamilton, but they will wisely choose to test for Honda and McLaren respectively next year]


IF Raikkonen leaves McLaren:

McLaren = Alonso and Hamilton [RD is not afraid of occasionally putting the hopes of the team on the shoulders of a rookie]

Ferrari = M. Schumacher and Massa

Renault = Raikkonen and Fisichella

Toyota = Trulli and Montoya

BMW Sauber = Heidfeld and J. Villeneuve [Both deserve to stay]

Red Bull = Coulthard and Liuzzi

Toro Rosso = Speed and Klein

Honda = Button and Barrichello [They'll give Jenso one last chance year]

Williams = Webber and Rosberg [Webby stays put for the moment. His 2nd best option will be Toyota (1st is Renault), but I believe JPM will beat him to the punch]

Ralfie Schumacher will take a position testing for BMW Sauber! [If he were smarter, he would cross the Atlantic, and take a stab at ChampCar]

Midland and Super Aguri [One or both teams will pitch to Anthony Davidson and Lewis Hamilton, but they will wisely choose to test for Honda and McLaren respectively next year]


There is one spoiler, however. [Maybe two]

If Sebastien Bourdais and/or Dan Wheldon come over to race F1, one could end up in the other McLaren with the other going to Williams. I can see Dan Welldone going to McLaren to partner Alonso, but he is too smart to go to Williams in their current state of cluelessness. I don't believe he would go to another team unless it was Renault. SeaBass just may take up the Williams challenge. I could also see him go to Honda with JB crossing the Atlantic. Toyota is also a viable option.
