If Kimi returns to F1. I think he will do no better than Schumachers return !

Abu Dhabi race is next weekend.. I would really love to see Kimi race there.. but i dont think williams will terminate Rubens in between a season. After all he is a very well respected driver..

Kimi is still young. he can race for 3-4 years. Plus Schumi left the sport on a high note. its not the case with Kimi, he will come back with vigor to prove that he is a worthy champion

But he will be jumping into an unknown car with who knows how much development the 2012 car will need to be competetive enough for his style of driving. Sounds like after paying him there won't be any money left to develope the Williams to be a second rate car.

wut
of course he wouldn't, he'd have a Williams - Schuey had a Mercedes. There's a difference.

Well technically Schumacher will have done better because he is in a far superior car. However yes I agree that Raikkonen may do better on merit as he will be able to best Maldonado in the Williams I believe :)

If we see Kimi in Abu Dhabi, we know he is likely to have been signed. If there is no sign of him, then I don't think anything will come of it.

So guys...who do you think is going to be in the seats next season for Williams?
|
|
|
Seat 1: Kimi Seat 2: Maldo Resevre: Sutil or Rubens
|

Guys there is another alternative.....
One of Williams Share holders have announced that...
They are in serious talks with Kimi, but also with Jules Bianchi, and Valtteri Bottas.
And it has also been stated that they (Williams) Don't need the money that Maldanado brings...
So both Rubens and Pastor may go and Kimi and one of the others mentioned may join him....
Ruben will however (Probably) stay as a test/reserve driver.

I don't think Rubens will stay as reserve. This would be humiliating for him after such a long career.
|
|
|
|
Bottas will be the test driver most probably, would be extremely surprised to see Rubens as a test driver/anything else than a race-driver at Williams really.

Yeah I would tend to agree with you there, but where else is he likely to go??
He's getting old now, having never won a Championship he isnt as sought after as the likes of Schuey... even though he is ancient now....

but from williams's point of view of view having one of the most experienced drivers on the grid being test driver!
|
|

It will be Maldonado and Kimi. I think Rubens has been there far too long. Love the man and his pride and passion for racing, and watching him win the German GP in 2000 was one of the finest moments in F1 history and I was touched but he has been outclassed by most of his teammates, he is only really a talented driver in the wet for me now, his age is catching up with him. Maybe he should go to Lotus and help Heikki with the development as Jarno is an embarrassment.

Just because he is the MOST Experienced driver... Doesn't mean he is the fastest, and best racer... (Don't Get Me Wrong, I am Rubens' Biggest Fan)... But he isnt as young as he used to be... but still has the experience and knowledge - Which are VITAL for testing (Especially if its testing for a shit team)
So Williams would probably prefer to keep him on as a test driver, unless they decide to replace both drivers, the Kimi will be the Number 1 driver with Valtteri Bottas (The Current Test Driver) as a number 2 driver, as then they will still have a good test driver who already knows the car. Kimi wont do much testing from the outset as he doesnt know the previous (Current Year) car... So he has nothing to compare it to. Then they may not need Rubens...
But if they hire Kimi to replace Rubens, they will probably try to keep Rubens on - Unless he get another drive in another team.... But I suppose it is all speculation.

but he has been outclassed Totally agree!! With other teams beating him he will go. Di Resta is beating him (Probally because he is in a better car). Just saying that I think Bruno Senna is doing well in Renault. Thats why he is with them next season. But I looked on wiki and it said Petrov is leaving!! Where to?

Thats utter Crap.... If Rubens was such a Loser then why has he had a longer career than ANY OTHER DRIVER ??
Yeah, it must be because he is such a bad driver, yeah thats right - they spend millions on his salaries just because they feel sorry for him...
Your Pathetic !

I'd like to see Rubens stay and complete 20 F1 seasons (his first season was 1993) but it seems like he'll be unemployed soon... this is sad :(
