Sounds like a good calendar (24 races??) as long as we can bloody well watch it!!

Don't agree with the non F3 potentials.

It would seem that Nasr would be GP2 bound on merit, he doesn't seem to be a GP3 runner in the making although not sure why I have that hunch?

The F3ES leading guy I(Merhi?) has been around that level for a while so i reckon he'll step up.

Problem will be that FR3.4 will be extreeeeeeeeemely attractive next season to drivers below that level so we may end up with an even more competitive field for that than we had this season!

The only proper way for GP2 to fend off FR3.4 will be for GP2 to lower their asking prices a bit maybe? Easier said than done I know!

At this stage it's really hard to see clearly who will choose either FR and GP2 from GP2/F3.

However a guesstimate:
Bottas
Nasr
Merhi
Calado
Magnussen
Melker

for starters.

then maybe a few guys who dropped off the radar in 2010 will regroup like Van Der Zande?
