Re: Formula 1 2012 Pre-Season
Anyone know who will be the second driver for HRT this season? Nothing on Wikipedia or Google about it.
And to make it interesting, would there be any interest in a sweepstake for the winner of the title?

Re: Formula 1 2012 Pre-Season
There's a few teams who currently need to fill a seat.. HRT I think may go with Luizzi as he has the sponsorship network behind him

If SKY is going to be involved as much as I think they will be I'll give it a miss for this season.

Re: Formula 1 2012 Pre-Season
Having the Luxury of having Sky Sports in HD I wouldn't blame anyone who wont fork out on this package simply for F1's sake even if that meant you viewed it via other means.
Not looking forward to this season as much as others probably due to the borefest no surprises season that came last year with the exception of a few phenomenal races (Button)
I think if Redbull win the first three races or so I'll be done for the season.

Re: Formula 1 2012 Pre-Season
At last the Lotus name dispute has ended and the Virgin name in F1 has gone!

Yes it would be great for one of the British drivers to win the championship again.

Sort of. The Caterham brand is directly descended from lotus.

Actually that is Lotus colors.. Most Caterham Sevens are painted that color by people wishing to make it look like an early Lotus Seven..

Re: Formula 1 2012 Pre-Season
Force India have unveiled their new car for the 2012 season. Looks a nice car again, hopefully it will be competitive and get Di Resta up in the points this season more often.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/for...one-track.html
And Ferrari's new car.
http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/030220...12-f1-car.html
It might just be me, but I hope the car fails miserably during the season and stops Alonso scoring points.

Lotus and Caterham have a common history and now they are both owned by Malaysians!
