In what way?

Not meaning Red Bull. Just once you've been kicked out of the programme your forgotten very easily and no F1 team wants anything to do with you. More on about Brendon Hartley here, he's a talented lad but i highly doubt a team will take him on now.
Well, yes, although Red Bull had paid for him to race in Renault 3.5 for 18 months, and he didn't win a single race in that time.
Obviously they aren't perfect and maybe they made a mistake there - arguably they have with others too - but I feel more sorry personally for those talented drivers who never get any Red Bull support in the first place. If Hartley hadn't been picked up by Helmut Marko, would he ever have got the chance to test an F1 car? It's questionable.

Pic to Marussia is official http://www.marussiavirginracing.com/news/514/
Good driver, congratulations to him, but is it better any drive than no drive?
Not the only one in that position though.

Ricciardo also liked to move to Caterham

May go someway to explain why Trulli was banging the laps in like a mad man in Qually in Brazil. Point to prove perhaps?
and why he didn't joing the happy party being intervew on the F1 forum!
In Team Mate Prediction, Trulli hasn't scored a point since Monza. For those of you who don't play that game, that means Kovalainen has finished ahead in every race, every qualifying session and every fastest lap ranking since the Singapore GP!
Not much up for grabs next year is there?
One Lotus seat, that it seems very likely to be between Senna and Grosjean (Outside chance of Kubica)
Two Force India Seats almost certainly for di Resta, and Hulkenberg.
Two Toro Rosso seats, Verge, Ricciardo, Algersuari and Buemi fight that one out.
Two Williams Seats for the highest bidder.
One HRT seat for the highest bidder.

I don't see the benefit of Kimi Raikkonen moving to Renault/Lotus/Benetton. At least from there perspective.
It seems a hell of a risk to them to take him on, when there are other drivers out there. There current drivers, Sutil, Hulkenberg, A cheeky stab at one of the Torro Rosso drivers considering seems to be plenty vying for drives in that team.
And also considering that Raikkonen reportedly doesn't come cheap either.
A team like Williams I could understand. There, a punt at him could of gotten them a driver who moved them up the grid. Outperformed the car, if they got the Old Raikkonen. That would in turn made Williams look less like a team in the doldrums with the bad vibes going around them.
with Renault, from the teams side, There would seem to be more pitfalls then benefits, And i would hazard a guess that need stability too, Try and get there car sorted. They may not be the next big things in F1. but keeping Hold of Petrov and Senna for a couple of seasons, with Kubica in the wings waiting till if/when he is fit, would of done good.
I hope I'm wrong though a Pre-08 Raikkonen dragging a team forward and upsetting the apple cart when he can drag the car around the track would be a joy to watch.
I'm Waiting with baited breath.
