Please stay on topic guys.

Also Dave - I posted this on the Chinese Grand Prix thread, but will share it here too. The FIA does conduct regular testing so I would hope Pascal does not have a drug problem. From accounts I've read they say he has an ego problem.

Why drugs and F1 don't mix FIA F1 features ESPN.co.uk
I'm glad you got to the reply before I did! There was a hole being dug very very deep, all the way probably to China! LOL. And yes, I was going to point out the drug testing. And considering he was just under Medical Care, there was probably constant drug testing.

and aside from the ego problem, he definitely has a complex about the appearance of his hair and eyebrows! LOL

If Robert Kubica can make a comeback, I think it will be the story for this generation of F1

I always thought highly of him and hold out hope that he will be back on the grid.

Robert Kubica has a great test although he and Renault are being guarded about it. If he made it back it'd be one incredible story

Seems the new F1 logo may be violating 3M's copyright - Report: New F1 logo may violate 3M copyright | Autoweek

The 2 logos are very similar, the F is pretty much the same. I'm sure the trademark attorneys are rubbing their hands together with this one.
