Marussia not yet decided on whether to run Rossi in second car. They could just sit out the Russian Grand Prix.

Vlad can get the time off to jump in. What's the worst that could happen?

IMHO, a new circuit where no driver has experience favors the drivers with the most native talent( I know that every one of them has a vast amount).

I'm rooting for Nico to keep the Championship close but in the last few races LH has shown an edge talent wise ( and maybe mentally too).

If Alonso had the car, he'd be right up there too in this one.

I think they planned to start this in Japan, but since the red flag rolled back the race it didn't work out.
