    Rossi to take over from Chilton this weekend at Spa - contractual issues apparently #F1

    Quite shocked at that, thought Max's seat was water tight.

    Statement from Chilton's management:

    I thought Chilton would drive for Marussia for many years - his dad is a shareholder. Maybe some of Chilton's other investors have given up on him.

    Unlikely. It's not like Bianchi has been that close either with the exception of Monaco. Marussia still too far behind.

    Pretty sure last few seasons Chilton has actually had the higher finishing position!

    BBC saying Max Chilton will be back in the car this afternoon. Rossi will only do FP1.

    Probably all the outrage on a star like Max missing out... just the wrong Max.

    I think it's more Rossi was the backup after Chilton couldn't fulfil a contractual agreement. Also does his dad even own part of the team anymore? Who does own that team anyway?

    Currently Rossi, he won the last hand with a flush, but it's still anyone's game.

    This Marussia situation is very early 90's, the sort of thing you'd see from Pacific/Larrousse etc.

    Looking like Caterham won't be around F1 much longer either, would be very surprised to see them on the grid in 2015.

    In 2013 Massa got 46% of Alonso's points. This season he has 36% of Bottas' <whistle>

    Massa has slightly inherited Kobayashi's problem of only being unlucky when he's been in good positions, he could have done well in Germany and should have been on the podium in Canada for instance.

    That said, today he was awful.
