    Schumacher sells t-shirts but gets no results. He is making a mockery of his whole career and should retire now, or mercedes should let him go. Mercedes are showing no ambition keeping him on and if they are to progress need to drop him.

    I think ferrari will bring in rosberg next year for massa, he is getting results out of a very average car, while massa is doing nothing. Don't be surprised to see sutil stepping up into a bigger team next season either (possibly mercedes or renault).

    What I would like to see is:
    Schumacher retires.
    Sutil & Button in Mercedes
    Rosberg goes to Mclaren to see how good he really is.

    Why would Button leave/be dropped from McLaren?

    There might be a chance at ferrari, but is it really fair to judge him at a team with a clear number 1? Everyone else seems to be staying put. Peharps a replacement for Schumacher could give us an idea about how good he is.

    I want to see Hamilton replace Schumacher and see how Nico fares after those years in Formula 3.

    Well, well, well: the plot thickens. Yesterday, the BBC were describing the state of Kubica's hand and him needing further operations; this from Boullier just adds to the impression that Robert won't be returning soon.

    Wow. Big news. Thanks for posting that, Bando. Not something I'd considered but it would make sense in some ways. If Red Bull wanted to promote a Toro Rosso driver then the link to Renault would give Webber the chance of a graceful exit. Who'd be a good partner, though? Petrov or Grosjean? My interpretation of this is that it pretty much confirms that Kubica won't be racing in F1 again.

    Well thats a suprise, Surely Webber doesnt expect to win races with Renault, no offence to them, but still not a bad team.

    Well, they say they want Mark to stay! Ferrari say Massa's safe there too. The teams tend to say these things but don't always mean them. A move to Renault could be a sensible one: no playing second fiddle and a fresh challenge in his career. He seems a bit stale compared to last year and Renault are improving so why not? He may get them the win they've wanted for so long now.

    There's a 'Delete' option in 'Edit'.

    It may not be Webber's choice to leave Red Bull and there may have been no overtures from Ferrari.

    Boullier is full of ****. Remember "we're going to sign Raikkonen"

    Thanks, but Newey want's Mark to stay so that's the important thing to know about. Not the sun slapping around rumours that Hamilton can just break his contract from McLaren with one year left after this season having a title contending car 2 years running and just stroll into Red Bull so he can try to size up Sebastian in his own team after all the dirge he kept on talking about from the start of last season and this season.

    He would cause more problems than benefits, he should go to Mercedes if he wants to go for long run benefits, they will get better down the line when the foundation is more solid in another season or two. Having the likes of Ross Brawn, Norbert Hague and Bob Bell backing him up, would be a prime chance to jump on it before they break into the scene. Lets not forget good old Nico who he knows well back in the day of lower series would welcome him in, gives him the chance to take on another giant in the sport.

    He made out talks were far more advanced than they ever were and pretended Kimi came to him so yeah he's just attention seeking again.

    I never really had Boullier down as a bullshitter, he always seems so straightforward. I like him a lot.

    I will like Boullier if he puts Bruno Senna in the car instead of Heidfield.
