Alexander Rossi

Former Caterham test driver and Marussia reserve has replaced Max Chilton for the Belgian GP.
Chilton allowed a recently cash-strapped Marussia to give his seat to Rossi, as he comes with a bigger pocket.

Funny how Chilton says he gave up his seat, yet Marussia say it "wasn't appropriate for Max to race" until the contract issues were sorted.

Win for Marussia in my opinion.

Yeah, their rivals in green were making headlines for bringing in Lotterer, so during FP1 when they'd get the press for replacing Kamui, the Rossi-Chilton switch happens during FP1 and means Marussia is the most talked about team. Shame for Rossi, but great marketing ploy. I saw more of that Car Cliq sponsor today than I ever have this year.
