    The rest of this season is in dire need of being interesting. Can see why Michael turned it down though, Rosbergs performance has started to make his comeback look decent and he doesn't need to turn up with no experience in a car and get thrashed by Grosjean (can't see Kovi doing well either sadly)

    Just said the same on another thread <laugh>

    Too many things could go wrong for Schuey and he doesn't need to do those races.

    If Kovi does well then what does that say about PIC and VDG who have been on the same pace if not better at caterham?

    Kovi's pace was measurable when he was at Renault & McLaren as he had teammates who were known quantities. If he gets close to Grosjean then it shows that he is a good driver, but clearly not an exceptional one, which is Ithink is pretty much what everyone thinks of him anyway.

    A good no.2

    Let me turn this around, and say that if Lotus would rather have Hulkenberg or even Schumacher, what does that say about Kovi?

    Ferrari's making a killing on the market of paying people not to race!

    So do you think Caterham will be getting a pay off as I believe they were going to use him on Fridays for the last 2 GPs

    Would Hulk join Lotus without guarantees about his future there in 2014? By signing a 2 race deal, would Hulk potentially compromise his chances of driving there in 2014?

    It would make sense to decline an offer from Lotus. But trust the fingerfucking Germans to make up an anti-Ferrari story.

    Can Mercedes show better race pace this weekend with the tyres switched to the medium and hard compounds? They should be able to manage them better?

    However with part of the track similar to Silverstone and Red Bull clearly the quickest car, Mark Webber would be my pick this weekend, providing he does not have a KERS/technical failure...AGAIN.

    Webber wouldn't be my pick until after Sebastian has slaughtered the consecutive win record
