So is it safe to say Pastor Maldonado is junk yet? He sure looks it.


His Williams does at any rate

Yeah, he does look resemble a young Edward James Olmos, but he's still not as weird looking as Buemi.

Yeah...if Renault is contending for a chip, petrov's 7 million will be insignificant.

Senna needs something on the order of two Alonsos right now to match Nick's time. I'm going to guess the seat is Nick's.

Delay is probably due to contract negotiations...

Renault and B.Senna blatantly came out and said that they were looking for experience to head the team and Senna's test was merely driver development, now Nick's bargaining chip just got that much bigger.

Exactly, not to mention all of the variables involved...i.e. timing of Kubi's comeback, Nick getting offered a permanent seat at another team, etc.
