On the pit radio's thing, surely it's a safety concern to get rid of them? In marginal conditions race control use them to judge conditions from the drivers, and telling a driver to immediately turn off a dangerous car can't be done any other way.
Sutil signs with Sauber http://www.sauberf1team.com/en/seas...-f1-team-gibt-adrian-sutil-fuer-2014-bekannt/
He should be thankful he's got another drive. Was hardly a great performance he put in last year after his year off.
@autosportnews: As Ganassi signs Ryan Briscoe for 2014, AUTOSPORT explains why the team was right not to chase an F1 star: http://t.co/KXHdMw073K Im assuming this was DiR's only hope outside of DTM?
McLaren possibility... Kind of all goes wrong with the nose :s please log in to view this image Scarbs got this from Caterhams cash video as well please log in to view this image
The McLaren looks like Daffy Duck. I'm not too concerned about Scarbs sketches because they always look far worse than they actually turn out.

Penalty points system and a "Qualifying Trophy" for 2014 Also, applications for new teams wanted, to start 2015 or 2016. We'll know if anyone's interested by January 3rd.
Rumours that Boullier is leaving? @KomivesP: We hear that Eric Boullier will leave Lotus. Still no engine deal, plenty of debt, unpaid employees and no team principal. .#F1 #Formula1 @KomivesP: Craving for more rumors? Eric Boullier is off to Force India - same source that told us Perez signed with Force India as well. #F1 #Formula1
The lack of engine deal must be a real ball-ache for Lotus. Renault will give them zero data until it's signed, how the hell are they supposed to design the car if they don't know the size and weight of the engine and all its components? They can't even design the rear suspension because it mounts to the gearbox, and they won't know the power and torque delivery of the engines. Pretty much everything rear of the cockpit is on ice until they get their engine deal sorted. No wonder they want the first test delayed, and no wonder Boullier said they aren't concerned with the weight of the car, as it stands it won't have an engine in it. It'll be interesting to see what happens if Boullier goes to Force India, if he'd gone a couple of months ago he could've taken Grosjean with him. Presumably he'd want Romain at Force India in 2015 given he's his manager.
Boullier playing a blinder? Stall on engine deals, etc to damage Lotus' chances for next season, then hop over to Force India and take advantage of that? I've seen others saying he's leaving, so perhaps does have some substance to it.
The bodge job car worked for Brawn in 2009 the last time the rules were majorly updated! Maybe they're more cunning than we thought!
Have they actually stopped paying their employees or is it just Raikkonen they haven't paid? They must be in serious **** if they can't even afford to pay their employees. I wonder how much longer Genii will stay in F1. Most of the debt is to themselves which says a lot about their actual interests. I bet they can't wait to sell the team, that's probably why they haven't given up on the Ijaz deal.
