Di Resta looks another characterless driver for F1. Seems to be the way the sport's increasingly going...

It seems Honda have got no chance of staying in F1 so it doesn't really matter what di Resta says. The lad will have to make do with a testing role at McLaren and maybe have a stab at Force India the following season. Hardly a dream drive but better than a stab in the face or whatever.

Paul di Resta can't win the DTM let alone F1 so it's too soon for him. Can't see where he'd get a drive anyway.

Mike, I love the idea of Schumacher getting back behind the wheel of an F1 car. I wonder if the German supremo's still got it in him. He showed at the Race of Champion he ain't no slouch but F1's a different business. Wld luv to see it.

What about getting old Schuey at the wheel of a Honda. That'd be mega.

I was reading the Donington rumours with interest but I'm really beginning to tire of stories about the British Grand Prix. Will it won't it fold, will it won't it stay at Silverstone etc. Frankly it gets a bit tedious. Bernie must know that the UK is the home of F1, well, most of the teams anyway, so he'd be an idiot to get rid of it.

Surely Schumacher's a one-man team and wouldn't jump ship from Ferrari whatever the rumours say. I reckon it's just come from his friendship with Ross Brawn and people have put two and two together and come up with 46. It'll never happen.

I never recall which one's which but he looks like Laurel or Hardy!

YOU WOULND'T BET AGAINST HONDA IF THEY HAVE BRAWN AND SCHUMACHER REUNITED. THEY KNOW HOW TO RUN A TEAM, GET THE BUCKS IN AND WIN RACES. BUTTON'S PROBABLY WETTING HIMSELF READING THAT.
