    Yes I would love to see Kimi win a race again, I do think that on pure speed, if they were all in the same cars and he was motivated that he would be right up there! HE has a raw natural talent for driving!

    I actually feel sorry for Massa, Ferrari have basically destroyed his spirit and he seems like a nice guy!

    Yes Lewis just needs to calm down abit - look how good Button has been and has only had one incident all year (Alonso at Canada). Everyone says Seb wouldnt win if Lewis and Fernando were in the same cars but I personally disgaree. I think he would!

    <laugh> Are you only saying that because Schumi's car will be rubbish and Mercedes need the test mileage to fix it?

    Oh yeah, well I am happy because the super team from the Ferrari days are mostly at Mercedes for 2012, with the big heads of development and experience there.... only good things can happen.
    So yes, Nico and Michael will both benefit for once.... thats in theory anyway ;)

    Yeah true Aldo Costa should do good things for Merc , but I will echo the words EJ said to Norbert Haug on the forum on Sunday evening:

    'You along with others must be keen to get the stopwatch and see how fast the new car is in testing'.

    The FIA has revealed the entry list for the 2012 Formula 1 season. Now there's not much of interest in it for helping us work out who's driving where but there are a few points. Hamilton and Button are swapping who has #3 and #4 cars, and HRT has no listed engine supplier! (oh and Schumacher's still #7)

    The numbers are default to 2011 numbers. The final entry list will have them corrected

    Yep. The numbers as you said, are all taken from this season... the next season numbers still need to be sorted out.

    But on the list Button is now #3 and Hamilton is #4? These are the new numbers aren't they? I've also assumed that as Kimi has taken #9 at Renault no current drivers will remain. I'm still waiting for them to call up me ;)

    Williams aren't 11,12 anymore either come to think of it.

    I see McLaren being the fastest car next year... Hopefully.

    That is ironic actually because in 10 he got 2 because Jenson joined the team with his number 1 so in some case got lucky there.
