No Prodrive and possibly no Kubica at Renault. Rumours have appeared he may sign with Mercedes.

I believe Kobayashi could do a brilliant job at Sauber, and I hope to see him there. Heidfeld would be a logical choice for Sauber, seeing how he drove for them this season and knows the team well. Rumours has it that the unoccupied seat is either going to Nick Heidfeld, Pedro de la Rosa or Giancarlo Fisichella

Richard Branson of Virgin Racing and Tony Fernandes of Lotus have agreed that whoever finishes lower in the standings will serve as a stewardess on the other's airline.
I like dumb shit like this.
Checked out Virgin Racing's website, it's pretty slick. I can't see how they are gonna do much with 40 million pounds though.
When does the salary cap start or has taht been agreed to yet? I've forgotten.

100 M $ in 2010, 40 or so in 2011.
F1 needs dumb shit like that, way too serious these days.
Where is Jordan when you need it?

Is it a hard cap or soft cap, i.e. are certain areas gonna be exempt from the cap such as driver wages?
I hope this cap works, and if it works really well, then hopefully we will have more level racing somehow.
But this is a lot to hope.

A lot of stuff is exempt, I don't even remember what, surely drivers and other heavy areas.
That said, many drivers are actually paying these days...

Sauber have signed Kobayashi-san.
If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

Sutil and Liuzzi, yes. Good to see Kobayashi with a seat for next yer.

I guess Sauber are hoping to keep Heidfeld in the other seat, but he's really in the box seat to pick up a drive at Mercedes. The only obstacles there are the small chance Schumacher would return or the chance Kubica wants out of Renault. Either way, Heidfeld could take Kubica's place at Renault but next years Sauber shouldnt be a bad car. Out of them and Toyota, theyre the ones more likely to replicate something like what Honda and Brawn achieved.
