i feel a bit sorry for leimer. he's obviously not a bad driver, but he seems to have made a series of duff decisions since his gp2 title, possibly blinded by the idea that aforementioned title actually means something and unlocks certain doors that money alone doesn't.
in an act of enormous pedantry... northern irish. he has a passport from the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland. so he's not british. you're only british if you're from england, scotland or wales |

The team that Leimer has resigned from should sign someone like van der drift or guerrieri or turvey.

I think Hideki Mutoh will replace Leimer at Mugen, perhaps Kousuke Matsuura or Oliver Turvey.

That's a shame. He is very popular in Japan.
So why not? Has he no interest? |

OFF-TOPIC:
Will the JAF allow something like aero-kits on their new SF14 car. I know it's stupid, but it's better than having identical cars. |

If aero kits introduce for SF14, so exciting. Toyota and Honda has many experience of top level aero dynamics. But Realistically, Each team's economic conditions are very strict status...

So will Matsuda drive the second Mugen car (instead of Leimer) or will Mugen just enter one car?

For the record, the driver with most vitories and 7 fastest laps out of 9 races last year was Oliveira. He was 2nd in the championship ahead of Lotterer in P3. Maybe that dominance isn't so.
