    Nah it looks like FR3.5 can control their crashes with pinpoint accuracy :1980_boogie_down:

    The standard of driving in FR3.5 is far better than GP2 imo. I think that's because in FR you have drivers with talent, whereas in GP2 you have drivers with rich parents.

    Or in the case of some drivers your rich parent is a country...

    The future of these FR3.5 drivers are pretty bright (Frijns, Bianchi, Da Costa), unlike the GP2 drivers as I don't think either Valsecchi or Razia will get into F1, even Calado has more chance than those two in F1 as he did pretty well for a rookie in GP2 it's likely he could win next year but he would be 25 if he gets into F1.

    Chilton will get in with Marussia, but I don't think he will do much though.

    Calado can't deal with pressure at all. If he ever does get into F1, he'll be like Webber, average at best and cracks when it matters.

    Spent a lot of time watching the likes of Formula Ford, Formula Renault and things like the old Clio and Mini cups in the past and they were always good fun. The young-uns always guaranteed some crazy driving while trying to make their mark.

    As for rich folk making it in Motor Racing... this isn't something new. It's always been hard for your average joe to make it.

    I've got to stop looking at random articles on Autosport. <doh> Anyway, my fifty free views have expired: de la Rosa has no doubts about his seat for next year. Beyond that, no idea, but didn't Liuzzi say the same?

    Luiz Razia (who has no reason to lie) says Sauber has already decided on it's driver line-up:

    http://www.yallaf1.com/2012/10/22/sauber-2013-driver-line-up-appears-confirmed/

    Also in the article is this:

    There's no mention of Alguersuari. Could that mean he is one of the Sauber drivers?

    Doubt it, Jaime has been lying through his teeth all season with this "100% drive" he doesn't have sponsors (as he said) or a contract with any team (as he said).

    According to crash.net Hulkenberg has told Force India he won't be coming back next year, but we knew this would be the most likely case.

    Some interesting paraphrasing going on in that article <doh>

    The actual full quote was "When I won the World Championship, I wasn't as lucky as Sebastian has been to have a car that's as dominant the next year as well," i.e. McLarens 09 car Vs the 2011 RB.

    Or to paraphrase me... I said it was a "interesting" ... "article"
