Silly Season 2013/14

In fairness to Chilton, he was solid.
He didn't shame himself at all and was outclassed by a highly rated youngster.
As far as pay drivers go, at least he brings the car home.

So 6 drivers is out and 2 new drivers in so far. I wonder who the 4 new guys will be.

Well, not 6 confirmed as out. I still think we have a fair chance of VdG and Gutierrez getting drives in 2014, and who knows if Dad is going to find another season of Chilton adventures.

I just went by the infograph above which i assumed was based on facts.

Well i think if some of the out drivers like Di Resta swallow their pride they can maybe get a drive with caterham or the other dregs teams.
I'm surprised Sutil goes to Sauber. I'm not sure how he did it, but he must have had the deal in the works for a while.
He's not half bad, just needs to colide a bit less.
Paul shot himself in the foot. He believed in his own hype in the beginning and marginalized the team.

[Racer X]

Sutil is going to give Sauber stability the question now is who is can Paul stay in F1 or will he be ousted by the pay drivers.

Honestly im exited about Hulk and Perez also Sutil and Massa making the Midfield battle for 5th - 10th interesting.

At the time of that prediction, Massa was confirmed and Perez, Hulkenberg, Sutil, Ericsson & Maldonado all heavily rumoured, which means he's gone out on a limb on VDG, Gutierrez & Chilton. If VDG goes to Sauber and Gutierrez to Marussia as suggested he would've got none right.

If you took a look back in this thread around the same time people will have predicted similar.

Jordan has hit a lot of homeruns, not just this year.
Schumacher, Hamilton for example.


Rumor is Boullier is heading to Force India.

Anthony Rowlinson ‏@Rowlinson_F1R 2h
So is @eboullier about to join @clubforce? A little bird tells me yes. The same little bird who placed @SChecoPerez with @clubforce... #F1

Bianca Garloff ‏@bgarloff 9h
(1/X) Just heard that @eboullier might have resigned from his job as @Lotus_F1Team team principal. He does not want to be responsible…

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

It's no secret he's close to Ecclestone and gets fed bones to chuck out.

And this is different to other people how? Everyone has an insider, Jordan just has very good insiders, not just Ecclestone.
This is the same guy that doesn´t even flinch to crash a Ferrari press conference and start asking Domenicali questions.

Hmmm, why isn't this twitter account verified?

[SectorOne]

No idea but he´s followed by Lotus, Mercedes, Pirelli, Windsor, Scarbs, Grosjean, Benson, Mclaren and Somerfield.

It could be that he isn't deemed a "celebrity" - for example, you or I don't have our Twitter accounts verified, but that's because we're (relatively) nobodies in terms of world knowledge
