so RB, knowing they were getting Alonso for 2010 would not have objected to Schumi's special test in 2009 to replace Massa and if Schumi had finished out the 2009 season then he would have been retained by Ferrari for 2010.
thus, mainly because Webber to Renault would have been too good to be true then Webber would have slotted into the higher paying Merc seat!
Flav of course would win out again in the end by securing another ridiculously large and unwarranted contract for Trulli as his parting shot to Renault/Lotus!
and once again Flav cheats us of the Webber to Renault dream!

Fair point, then maybe Webber moves to Mercedes in 2010 instead of Schumacher, taking MSC's credit for helping to build Mercedes into the world beaters they are today!
