dixons goal for a long time has been F1.
he's been tied to toyota for a while, at least until toyota quit the USA.
unless iv missed something somewhere and he's said he's not interested in F1 anymore

I thought the most interesting thing for me F1 Qualifying was when Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen were doing there intial fuel burn run they must have been pretty close to how they would be fuelled at the start of the race with the Ferrari being slightly quicker on the harder tyre and full fuel load.

But for out and out speed with minimal fuel and the soft tyre the Ferrari and Mclaren its to close to call.I also found it interesting that Alonso went with the hard tyre in the final phase of Q3 as well.

Scott Dixon tested for Williams and got the "don't call us, we'll call you".
I think he lost interest after that.

So officially Scott's been sleeping with Honda in the Indy series, but he's been having an affair with Toyota on the side?

Honda will be crushed!

That's the bottom rung of the experienced drivers pay schedule, Toyota would have to pay Alonso $40m+ to employ his services (plus pay Mclaren out of his contract )

Oh, and Japanese drivers in Japanese controlled teams are the curse of any racing series. Doesn't work well in the bikes, and has never worked in F1 :evil:

hell i can remember when shumacher senior got 20m us and that was extreme.. and it wasnt THAT long ago

alonso at toyota.... well they HAVE to start improvng soon!

Man if Alonso's availible Toyota should serously think about getting him he would clearly be the best replacement.This young guy Nakajima maybe good in a few years but if Toyota are serious about doing well they should go after Alonso.

40 Mill well yeah thats alot of $$$ but for what there getting a 2 time world champ and probably the best driver out there it would be seriously worth while.

Was'nt M.Schumacher getting 5-6 mill a race when he was at Ferrari???

Post by **Mr Revhead** » Fri Sep 07, 2007 8:04 pm

True that I kinda had a inkling during qualifying man I no Ferrari were struggling but when I sw Kimi Raikkonen a full second behind Alonso the writing was on the wall for me.Though he was heavily fuelled and only 1 stopped during the race the Ferrri's just did'nt hve the speed.

Post by **Mr Revhead** » Mon Sep 10, 2007 5:05 pm

yeah, kimi almost snared 2nd, but couldnt stand up to hamiltons elbows!
