Seems Hulkenberg wont have a drive at Williams next season. Seems a shame after Williams had made some progress throughout the year but I guess it comes down to money.

Any thoughts if another team may pick him up?

Think next season could be really up in the air. We have KERS coming back and also Pirelli tyres. The new tyres are a bit of an unknown and we might find some cars just don't work on the properly at first and others do.

Rubens Barrichello gets to stay at Williams for 2011.

fair play to Webber he isn't blaming that on losing the title but you have to wonder how much of an effect it had

Re: F1 2010/11 closed/pre season discussion
 

Apparently there is now some fall out within the team as he did not tell them he was crock, or that he was writing a book.

I think that team needs to find itself and get some team spirit and trust I think McLaren have really come along in this respect this year.

There is still every chance that there could be two Lotus teams on the grid next year :confused: . Renault are looking to sign a title sponsorship deal with Group Lotus to be Lotus Renault, yet Tony Fernandez has registered his team as Lotus Racing again.

I would have thought common decency would have led to Mark telling his team

Re: F1 2010/11 closed/pre season discussion
 

The problem with Mark telling the team that he was injured is that he already had concerns about team orders and if you tell them you have an injury, there is even more risk that they would favour the other driver over you.

Shouldn't matter as in the end Vettel won and Red Bull got the team championship.

convenient.

Re: F1 2010/11 closed/pre season discussion
 

It's official now. Renault are now only an engine and technology partner to the team formally known as Renault F1. They have a seven year deal with Group Lotus (Proton) to run as Lotus Renault GP in Black and Gold Livery:).

There are still stories that Tony Fernandez is going to run his team as Lotus Racing also in a black and gold livery.
