I'm not a staunch supporter. I just wouldn't describe him as an average driver considering his 2007 season, where he beat everyone in the field at one time or another on a very strong GP2 grid.
I was always expecting his form to turn around this year, but obviously that never happened. Last year he finished 2nd in the feature race at Spa, and had two strong 2nd place finishes at Monza. But his performance at those two tracks in the past week is beyond me. He qualified well yesterday in 4th, but his races were terrible. Based on these performance, I don't see Honda signing him for another year.
I think he should have one more crack at GP2, then go to the IRL, where i'm sure he would be in the top 10. Conway recently tested an IRL car for the first time and blew everyone away, i'm sure Filippi would adapt too.
