I dunno, if there was one place PDLR was gonna help, it's HRT. He can get their car behaving more like an f1 car without hurting them with his bad race craft.De la Rosa to HRT with a 2 year contract...

I was thinking the same...plus is his racecraft that bad? Didn't he replace JPM and score a podium and a hand full of points? Not the quickest of guys for sure, but can probably drive as well as a rusty Woobens or any of the younger guns...

Unsurprising. We've heard entirely too little from his camp for him to be about to mount a return.http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/96402
No 2012 comeback for Kubica.

I'm really doubting that he will ever be able to race a F1 car competitively again. His hand was almost cut off completely, and that wasn't all that happened to him.Unsurprising. We've heard entirely too little from his camp for him to be about to mount a return.

Indeed. However, Renault have to save him a seat, just like Ferrari did with Massa. The fallout if he was replaced without a seat being 'held' would be huge.I'm really doubting that he will ever be able to race a F1 car competitively again.

He'll need to declare himself unfit, or come back and prove he's uncompetitive via results before he can really get the boot. And anyway, what other hope does Renault have for a real driver? I mean, hell, they're praising Grossjean at this point...

Shit, the fact that we haven't seen a picture of bobert is worrying. Massa was in a coma for 2 days and there were pictures of elephant felipe a week later.
i remember seeing a pic a few months ago. he was walking around using a cane with an assistant. not good...

9 straight titles for Loeb at the end of next year? WRC needs a real revival.

Mikko will be his main rival once he gets accustomed to the car...
but Mikko and Loeb are the super team, Ford and Mini don't have anything to compete against those two for the constructors...
Ogier if he had gone to Ford would've been a title contender as well, but he's sitting out the season and coming back in 2013 with VW... so really next year is going to be a Citroen interteam title fight...

Really wish I could follow Loeb more, he's from my Great Grandfather's hometown (Alsace was under German control when he emigrated, so we're "German" even though we're not 100% deutch or francais)

Haven't followed WRC at all in 2011. Let me guess, Loeb wins, amirite?
it was down to the last rally... 8 points between Loeb and Mikko...
Mikko's engine failed day one
Loeb crashed out on the road section between stages day two
It would've been a 3 man fight on the last rally, but Ogier had engine failure the rally before while leading that put him just out of contention.. it would've been 3 people within 8 points...
and DDA, I torrent the rally's... ESPN in Europe had 30 minute daily coverage + power stage coverage... so it's 4 downloads, 2 on the last day...
