Kubica ready for F1 - surgeon
more at: http://en.espnf1.com/renault/motorsp...ory/62347.html
The progress of Robert Kubica's recovery continues to get mixed coverage as his hand surgeon says he is ready to drive a racing car again.
Last week Kubica's doctor Ricciardo Ceccarelli said that Kubica would need "a few more months" to recover from his rally accident in February of this year, which appeared to rule out a return to Formula One in 2012 with Renault wanting to confirm its driver line-up in November. Igor Rossello, however, says that Kubica is already driving a road car and is fully recovered, with only how competitive he can be back in an F1 car still to be determined.

Massa was stupid, but not for that move. That was what Senna would have (and did) do to Prost. And what Prost did to Senna the prior year. Massa had the line. Hamilton was off line and it was his responsibility to make the clean pass.
Massa was stupid for blaming his suspension failure on the curbs set there to keep the cars from going too far in at the apex. It's the conditions of the track that all had to deal with. The others were OK. It was you.

Damn!!!
For once I wasn't that upset that I could not watch the entire race yesterday.
It was ONE OF THE MOST BORING RACES I forced myself to watch!
Get rid of India GP... Track sucks, very bad design and I just "don't feel" it's a nation that could embrace this...

Welcome back Pololo!
They should bring Imola back and add Mugello.
Screw texas, NJ, India, Africa and whatever.
We have the tracks and it would surely be way more cost effective to use them than to build new ones every year for crappy races.
Plus we know how to fill'em up... Tifosi, english fans, german ones etc. Cheap flights are available and a holiday for a family to attend the gp and visit italy would be feasable.
Same would go for the 'ring and hockenheim together.
I hate France so they can go eat bananas.

It was one of the points. However we haven't had a serious track related car accident in f1 in the last what, 10 seasons?
They're trying to import the sport where it isn't popular. Places like Korea and India have a far more radicated rural culture so hypertechnologies only appeal to a minority.
It would be nice to have a "league" where each team has the right to host its home race.
I'd take Monza and Imola for Ferrari and Toro rosso.
Paying the track would become cheaper and the host team could make some more money off of the whole race package with Bernie playing the general CEO etc.
Bernie's greed will never make anything like that happen, and FIA is a huge obstacle too.
