How "boring" does Kubica wish that he had been, I wonder?

No doubt the likes of Webber and Button will be out riding bikes and such like.

Kimi obviously likes the snow.

There's no denying it though, sometimes you just gotta roll that dice!

I thought that was largely to keep the media at bay, rather than throw off the team he was driving for at any particular time

So pedantry is prevalent after pontification?

I may just have to prevaricate for a bit.

Webber seems to be tempting other F1 to demonstrate a bit of character and accept some extra-circular activities. We'll have half the grid laid up at this rate.

I think that Grosjean will be Totally fine.

http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/2...e-main-factor/

And Senna is quite prepared to stand on the pit wall again.

"He's very good with his technical feedback and we would need to see how we could give him some running on Fridays. But we would need to balance that with the team because we have two drivers who are new to the current regulations."
