Just tell DC, that his seat is in the balance and he pulls out a 2nd place. The guy is fast, but oh so inconsistent.

Silly season. Why would Williams let Montoya go? If I was Frank I would sew JPM's pants to the seat with him in them.

Autosport reported that DC expects a continuation of his contract at McLaren on very short term.

Montoya and Kimi on the same team? No more nail-biting scraps like the 2002 season? Too bad.

I hope the Sato rumour is true, he was great to watch. Also Villeneuve has a poor attitude to be doing one of the best jobs in the world.

Heard another one: Sato coming back replacing Villeneuve. Can't see how that should make the BAR any faster, but it helps Honda selling their products. Good for Button I suppose.

Webber to Williams? Whoa! Talk about a steep career move. The guy would be living proof, that with enough talent you can get to the top: From Minardi at the end to Jaugar in midfield to Williams at the top. And all in a few years time. I wish him luck!

Montoya at Mc Laren would actually be helpful to Ferrari: Kinda like Prost and Senna in the same team, snatching away points from each other.

Fisico at Sauber, well, that would definitely be great for the Swiss team. Maybe less great for him. Sauber will probably still suck next year, but be better in 2005. Their wind tunnel will open Q1 next year, too late for the 2004 car though.

Also heard: Webber to Williams, Fisichella to Williams.

Fisichella to Sauber sounds like it's possibly a done deal.

Montoya to McLaren sounds unlikely. Maybe it's time for his contract to be re-negotiated and his manager is trying to upi his value. Ralf is on three times the salary of Montoya!

Dropping Coulthard seems sensible though. I've never been a fan of his, but he seems to be really struggling with the new style qualifying.

Yeah, heard that too. Should be fun for next year.

Other rumours: Heidfeld and Frentzen gone from Sauber. Heidfeld unclear, Frentzen into retirement. Massa and Fisichella in the Sauber.

Also Villeneuve gone into retirement.

The silly season has begun.

According to the bbc, Coulthard is out and Montoya in.

I would have thought that Williams would want to hang onto him - he has been under contract for years.
