I would have thought that he would have been better staying where he was.

WTF is he doing! Siding with the Germans!



This must be down to money. His future at BAR was secure with him as no. 1 driver and what is the second best car in F1. I think he is going to regret this decision unless BMW serioulsy improve their car for next season.

So who will drive for BAR - Anthony Davidson perhaps or DC?? Sato has not yet signed for 2005

The way Williams cars are performing at the minute, it seems like a backward step to this semi-informed casual F1 observer. As Mat says, I suspect it's all about

It appears to be true. Look at the ITV F1 site:
