Arden are a very good team but I get the impression they work best when Christian and his men are in full control - which obviously isn't the case here.
I suspect a parting of the ways is inevitable and there may be another team running the GBR car, if not by the next round, certainly after the Christmas break |

Still, the race provided the best commentary line I've heard in years. Can't remember if it was Ben or Wattie, but:
"And now the United States is attacking Switzerland....." I bet there were a few people in cuckoo-clock-land looking anxiously at the horizon after that ! |

Thought the whole thing was very exciting. The Sky coverage is comming along in leeps and bounds. The racing was good. A+ in my opinion. Only thing i would say is that i think it is time GB gave Alex a chance to show what he can do. Many of the teams are rotating drivers successfully most notably France. Matt H and J Reid are doing a good job for NZ so lets see Alex out with Robbie on fridays. Perhaps we should follow Aus, fastest on Friday gets the nod !!

Absolutely, sideways - it's getting better all the time and will provide good entertainment through the winter

Strangly to, the comparative inexperience of some of the drivers adds to the entertainment.

As is so often the way - it's why there's more action in club racing than at higher levels sometime

Pitpass appears to have Anthony Davidson driving for A1 Team Australia - I did not know he was Australian!!!
Click on the link in their results page. I would expect a little better from him, actually - do it for your country son!!! For all of those who persist in spelling Will's name incorrectly (PARTICULARLY PITPASS!) his name is Will Davison! Please note there is only one "d" in his surname. Thank you and good day. |

Well, to be fair there is Davison, Davison, Davison and Davison.
That's Anthony, Alex, Will and James, respectively. |

So, Alex is cousin of James, but is Will brother of James or brother of Alex?

And he is brother of Andy (who was in Big Brother). To be fair to Pitpass, (though no reason why I should), the official timing at the circuit last weekend did have Will down as W Davidson in some of the sessions. |

Well I don't expect much from that other web site, the webmaster is far to smug for what is often a sloppy job.
Back to more important topics, I thought the racing was excellent entertainment value, e.g. US vs Germany all day long, and exciting moments like Austria vs Lebanon passing each other and GB diving inside RSA while Indonesia was forgetting to brake for turn one... Thumbs up for the TV director for following the action and not on France circulating alone at the front. |

Yes I agree. I enoyed watching the onboard footage as Italy tried to overtake The Austrailian team.
