And this is proof of why Honda is doing an extremly poor job in F1. We keep saying they should just put in another driver because they should just put in another driver. They can hold onto their stupid idea about keeping a Japanese driver in the seat and continue to do poorly, or abandon that idea and find some other driver with talent.

Any team unwilling or unable to make the difficult decisions, especially when they are obvious does not deserve to win and never will.

I read an article that they are seriously considering Davidson? Thatll kill any chance of his career developing. Its kinda like shooting yourself in the foot taking a Super Aguri ride. They cant even afford to let Ide test, or mold him his own seat......what a joke.

Makoto Tamada? Although he's no VR he is Japanese and is pretty quick on a bike. Super Aguri couldn't do any worse than Ide.

And a question. Would AD be able to do the Friday driver thing with Honda and race with Aguri in the same weekend??

^ no - third car has to have a third driver that does not race on Sunday....

Triple-H

I would love it if AD got a chance to race.

And I have to take the other side of the coin on your next part. I have to believe if a driver performs well and is with a crappy team, that does not exclude them from advancing into a better team. As long as cheap man Frank is still running a team there will always be hope because Frank has a long history of taking young talent because he does not pay a lot, and really, driving for a team like Williams is going to teach anybody a lot.

The problem is that they are only letting Sato do the testing, and they have not even given Ide a proper seat fitting or time to get the car setup to his liking during testing. Without any of that it will be near impossible for anyone to perform well. Imagine taking a fast sweeper at 150+mph and your sliding around in your seat........probably a little hard to foucs . I fear Davidson will have the same issues with the team helping adjust the car for him, which is why i fear it may be bad for him when i would like him to do well. Just my .02 cents

LOL

if he's in your way, don't boot him, PASS HIM!!!!!

ytdlite

THIS IS JUST A JOKE.
can we get davidson to place a rubber band around his eyes so he appears more team spirited. then would honda put him in race?

NOT A JOKE
even driving for super duper aguri, give this guy a chance.

Ide replacement?
