F1 Driver Discussion [Split]

Btw, there's an ongoing rumour that Kimi will sign-up with Ferrari after 2006. There were talks that Ferrari & Kimi already signed a MOA.

Massa & Schumi's contracts will both expire on 2006. ;)

Is it true? Barichello would replace Sato?

I read Jean Todt being quoted that M. Schumacher will always have a Ferrari F1 to drive. Schumacher will test the 2007 units first before deciding.

Judging by Sato's aggregate performance (especially the lack of it), this makes the most obvious choice. Button has his own flaws, but he is the one bringing home all the points for BAR except for a point by Sato.

Sato is entertaining, but sadly, too erratic, even compared to Button. His removal is no one's loss.

Sato is just waiting for Button's deal. If Button goes to Williams, Sato will stay. If Button stays with BAR, Sato will be sayonara.

By the way, heto yung news report tungkol dun sa mura ni Schumi kay Sato:

Barrichello confirmed at BAR. Heidfeld taken by BMW works team for next year. There's one Williams seat available. Pizzonia will be one of the candidates. Button still to fight off stipulated contract at Williams so that he can stay with BAR.

McLaren have denied talks over a Schumi switch, so did Ferrari on having discussions with Raikkonen for a drive in 2007.

Button has already bought out his seat at Williams, so he gets to stay with BAR next year. Sato is now out of a drive, so he needs to look elsewhere or make do with a testing role.

I'm on his side but sorry to say he's kinda erratic for a number of seasons now. He's aggressive but still a little bit too rough on the edges.

By the way, anyone has word with Dubai F1?
