Bourdais stunk and I'm glad he's gone. He was an arrogant prick that got what he deserved.
that's a bit harsh. he didn't live up to expectations sure, but he seemed like a nice guy. he seemed nice to the media and i liked hearing him talk about the car; he gave good detail.

Renault should fire Piquet and hire Bourdais.
WHY?????
at least piquet finishes a race, and when both bourdais and piquet would both finish piquet placed higher the majority of the time

But Piquet is driving a works Renault!

I think Renault will ditch Piquet soon, or at season's end. Too bad for him. Maybe they should have kept Fisi on board.

Sutil in a Renault? That'd be cool, but unfortunately for him, I don't think it'll happen. Renault seems to be quite intent on the guys in their young driver development program, Grosjean and di Grassi could be up for it? Sutil doesn't really have the links to Renault. But I agree - Sutil deserves a quicker car. Mind you, the Force India's been doing pretty well lately...

^^ All Sutil needs is for Kimi to be about 10 cars behind all through the race or for Kimi to retire, so he may score points

I hope he comes back to Indycars so Tracy can throw another punch at him.

Yep! Kimi & Sutil are like the Iceberg and The Titanic
