RasputinLives the BBC got JEV and his pitch to be in F1 was a positive and good one that he keeps reminding everyone his record is similar to Ricciardo and its about time he gets a good result although it does seem to always happen on street circuits

Grosjean is a broken man - how 12 months could change quickly and his options do not look good even if Bouillier is at Mclaren ..he is not going to twist Ron's arm to give Romain a go

FB You're being unfair on Ivan Capelli who I almost did not recognise with his bald head and beard on the last F1 forum. Capelli was great in 1988 and 1990 but his spirit was broken by the Ferrari politics and pressure in 1992. Had he joined Williams then then his career might turn out differently

More rumours and speculation; Alonso to McLaren, Hamilton to Ferrari.

[cider_and_toast]

Ah, so that's why Agent Lauda is in the Mercedes camp

But seriously, if and there isn't a font size big enough to cover the size of the "if" this were true, does anyone seriously expect Hamilton to win the title with Mercedes if he announced before the end of this season he was going to move to Ferrari. Rosberg on the other hand would be waiting to help him pack.

 

[Olivier]

If Hamilton goes to Ferrari, who would be his replacement, Vettel? And what about Button? would he be Alonso's team-mate? Is the team thinking about giving him the boot ...

 

[teabagyokel]

Surely Hamilton was born with sufficient brainpower not to go to Ferrari.

 

[Mephistopheles]

At the moment the other rumours suggest that Button is happy that he is secure at McLaren for the time being..

 

[RasputinLives]

The only reason Hamilton would go to Ferrari for 2015 would be because of the kerching kerching. I don't think he'll do it.

I could see him going at the end of his Merc contract as it is Ferrari after all but not right now.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Puts on Austrian accent "Ah but Levis, you vill never be zee true vorld champion until you have von viv zee Ferrari ya?"

 

[Mephistopheles]

It used to be the that every young pup driver aspired to drive for Ferrari..

 

[Il_leone]

I don't think Hamilton wants the Ferrari drive now and his head will not be spun by some ludicrous offer that will come out of Maranello to entice him

Alonso to Mclaren is possible but he expects to be No 1 and so do Honda but KMag will have other ideas if he is going to be his teammate

 

[teabagyokel]

Ah, but Senna never drove for Ferrari, so it's unlikely to be too high on Hamilton's bucket list.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Hamilton to Williams next year in place of Massa so he can complete his idols unfinished buisness then ??

 

[teabagyokel]

And Bruno to McLaren so he can tick the final box on that chart...

 

[Greenlantern101]

Interesting that all the seat changing rumours are for drivers THAT HAVE A CONTRACT FOR NEXT YEAR.

Except JB. Who will stay at McLaren.

 

[Chad Stewarthill]

Since when did a trifling thing like a contract get in the way of anyone moving?

 

[Incubus]

Except JB. Who will stay at McLaren.

-------------------------------

Didn't JB himself once negated broke a contract when he decided after all to remain at BAR or Honda or whatever it was called at the time?

 

[Greenlantern101]

Lewis, Alonso and Vettel will honour their contracts. You heard it here first.

 

[RasputinLives]

I'm sure we heard it when they signed the things first.

 

[siffert_fan]

Hamilton to Williams next year in place of Massa so he can complete his idols unfinished buisness then ??

Doesn't he still have to drive for Lotus (which I recall started as Toleman) as well to truly emulate Senna?

 

[KekeTheKing]

That's the goal!!!
