'hamster Posted August 20, 2014 Share This is why I'm starting to dislike this sport... http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/17583/9429678/andre-lotterer-replaces-kamui-kobayashi-at-caterham-for-this-weekends-belgian-gp They won't admit it but we all know it's all about getting in more cash. It makes no sense resting out Kobayashi. Lotterer is awesome but why not replace Ericsson? The funny thing is that they say it's because of the weather conditions... I just hope for their sake Lotterer don't crash out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaBee Posted August 21, 2014 Share Guess the new group taking over the team had no intention of getting Honda powerplants, then...! (Said in jest, I know they're Renault engined next year...) Like the guy, one of the few that actually tried overtaking when it was near impossible some years ago. And I seem to remember him as a fairly good driver in the wet... Maybe they were just scared of (in jest again) the repair bill if Kamui played skittles from the back of the grid into La Source! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'hamster Posted August 21, 2014 Share Still I'd say Mr Ericsson is worse in wet conditions... The thing with these promotional runs... the tracks are normally terrible when it comes to grip (no excuse though) but it's crazy embarrassing to crash there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwan Kemp Posted August 23, 2014 Share Mark Lotterer "There is a lot more power [in the F1 car] – it would be nice to have that much power in an LMP1 car – but then in the corners it is the opposite," he told Sky Sports F1. "I think our Michelin tyres are a bit better, we can push them much harder and do over 700km on one set of tyres and [the car has] more downforce as well so you can push an LMP1 a bit more in the corners. "So that was the surprising thing, but we did come a bit low on downforce here so I expect the car to become better. But you do have to restrict yourself and apply yourself a lot." http://www.f1times.co.uk//news/cache/images/andre-lotterer-caterham.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr X Posted August 23, 2014 Share This kid in F1 thing is just BS to make it interesting. They were hellbent on getting a woman into F1 a few years back - she crashed and lost her eye when she drove into a truck, then that fantasy stopped, same thing with the kid now. P.S I`m not saying it is not possible for woman or youngsters to make it in F1, but it seems these things are forced, trying to make it interesting, which is wrong.
