If only....when asked about this Jean Todts reaction was pretty clear... "No, No, No, No..." then he proceded to talk about the two world class drivers they have under contract already

But then again the sources that feed our South African presenters may not be too reliable......let us remember these presenters claim to be F1 test drivers after they went for a couple laps in that Minardi two seater

Not limited to South Africa as far as I can tell.

Rosberg is said to be first in line for the Mclaren seat....and Fisico to Williams?

Williams have confirmed test driver Kazuki Nakajima will step up to the race seat, in place of Alex Wurz, for the final race of the year at Interlagos, Brazil, in just under two weeks time.


Fisico - Nakajima - Williams, 2008??

That would probably mean the end of Williams F1 team as we know it unless Sir F is content to fight for the 6th place in the WCC. Honestly I don't see Fisi or Nakajima win/score a podium driving a Williams.

Perhaps M Todt does not have an effective opinion for next season ?

2008 Driver Predictions..................

**Ferrari...........Raikkonen, Massa
--Massa's been a great wingman to the Finn; why mess with that?
**McLaren.........Hamilton, Rosberg
--I agree with GhoGho on this one......
**Renault..........Alonso, Kovalainen
--good pair and it establishes a clear 1-2 driver hierarchy
**BMW..............Heidfeld, Kubica
--if they're smart, this team's set for 2008
**Williams.........Piquet, Jr. and Klien
--one gets his chance in the sun; the other gets a 2nd chance in F1
**Red Bull.........Webber, Coulthard
--unless one or both leave, this team's set for 2008
**Toro Rosso.....Bourdais, Vettel
--good luck to SeaBass in 2008
**Honda............Button, Barrichello
--to quote Mastercard(paraphrase), Honda's IRL program, a couple of million $; their F1 program, hundreds of millions $.....HPD watching their F1 brethen languish........PRICELESS
**Super Aguri.....Davidson, Sato
--won't it be nice watching Super Best Friends beat up on the factory boys'?
**Toyota.............Glock, Trulli
--at least they won't be paying Ralfie millions to languish away mid-pack at best.....
**Spyker.............Sutil, Yamamoto
--anyone with a large checkbook, please see the Spyker paddock at Interlagos........
**Prodrive............R. Schumacher, Fisichella
--at least they'll have nowhere else to go but up!

20 Euros that Ralf Schumaker will not drive F1 after this season.

As M little said, Massa has been a great wingman to Kimi.
Ferrari agree, and have signed Massa to the end of 2010.

McLaren could do worse than poach Sebby Vetel, to fill Alonso's seat.
