I really hope he gets back on the grid. Ya Im Canadian and darn proud to be, but thats not why I would like to see him there. He is actually a fantastic race driver, had a bad team swap, then got stuck playing the "role driver" and he never liked that. But that some time, is racing. He would be a excellent asset for Stefan, and crazy as this sounds I think they stand a chance to be competitive. Well more so then the rest of the new teams. (no offence)
Toyota might even regret pulling out? Im not saying their tech and car this year will be challenging for the mighty steps. I would be confident to say that they did proper development on the 2010 chassis ect. Only question that would make me scratch my head the most would be because of the engine freeze. More so, how toyotas engine will react lugging around the extra 150kg + load of fuel.
The engine is balanced efficient when light but efficient shows its power loss. It also showed its hand last year running heavy, which is where it seemed thirsty and again lacking power. Williams had a hell of a time with a high down force producing car, I think they would of faired better with a Renault or Merc power plant. But I would really like to see this all turn out.
Sorry USF1, Im rather disappointed in your business plan. Peter, Ken and wow! Chad Hurly?? You mean to tell me you can't get your ducks in a row. You have the most diverse market to work with. You get to capitalize and corner this side of the globe. On top of it all, they have an amazing media outlet and they failed to use it. Never mind the fact that what they produced as far as media exposure and insight to the team was absolutely amateur, disgraceful, unexciting, uncoordinated, sloppy editing all in all a bad production that if any would scare all corporate interest away entirely. Anyone want to argue that last sentence, if so go to the USF1 official site before attempting. I really would like to have seen what they may have come up with, and still wish them all the best. BUT WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU THINKING USF1!!??
Bring on StefanGP and J.V. ................ nuff said.
