SHOCK! - another team sign a young 'young driver' who looks fairly good British driver Will Stevens has been added to the Caterham Formula 1 team's Racing Academy young driver roster. The 21-year-old is currently fourth in Formula Renault 3.5 with the P1/Strakka team, and will continue this programme while working with Caterham.

I've been thinking. With Mark Webber going to Porsche, the LMP car is going to need testing, does that mean he'll have to jet off and test the LMP car every now and again, or will he just let Bernhard and Dumas test it, and stay at Red Bull until his contract ends? It makes sense for him to test the Porsche, otherwise the other drivers will have a big advantage over him.
Probably all depends on sponsor clashes etc. If there are none, I don't see why RBR would prevent him from testing whilst the F1 season is still on going.
By the time LMP1 testing becomes serious (early 2014), Webber will be well out of his Red Bull contract. There should be no clash.
Ive just read that Josh Hill will be retiring at the age of 22 http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/108706
Big shame. Nice article from Autosport. Looks like he had all the attributes of Damon and Graham, so wouldn't have been a Vettel if he ever made it to F1, but given the right opportunities would have taken them and been successful.

Williams announce that Pat Symonds will join as chief technical officer from next month. The team, who are yet to score a point in nine races this season, also reveal that current technical head Mike Coughlan has left with immediate effect.

German GP Race Edit is up, but you won't watch it for the racing, you'll watch it for the music. Here's the full song, you're welcome http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgurejfxYSQ
Say what you will about crashgate but Pat Symonds was always a good technical director. I was always a fan of his policy of trying something different with regards to strategy. Quite shocked that things have gone so badly with Coughlan though. good song mind.
