The Formula Renault 3.5 champion hotshot from Canada has finally got his chance in F1 by being entered for a practice session at Abu Dhabi. Hope to see some new blood next year with "Virgin Racing" and just kick out Glock or Ambrosio. Can't wait!
Glock may not have performed as well as he'd hoped this season but he is technically very good and should continue to form the mainstay of Marussia's (Virgin's) driver line-up. However, I've not been impressed by D'Ambrosia, who will probably be first to be creamed if Wickens does the bizz - as well he might.
Ambrosio has got 14th place twice this season while Glock has only got 15th at best. Though Glock is leading by race wins...1 and has 3 more years of experience than Ambrosio. Same situation with Buemi and Jaime, he might be leading on points, but by races they are bang on equal.
Am I the only one who thought that it was a bit unfair to chuck out DiGrassi after only 1 rookie year? Wouldn't be surprised to see the same thing happen to ol' Custard.
I thought Di Grassi was useless and deserved to be replaced. D'Ambrosio isn't much better so I wouldn't be too bothered if he was replaced. I thought Charles Pic was on the verge of signing with Virgin, but maybe Wickens still has a chance.
It would certainly be ironic considering that DiGrassi finished in front of Glock in 2010 and Custard is currently leading him too.
