    Not sure about all the rumors, but the fact is that Williams has 1 point this season. ONE POINT, so they just might do something like that.

    Personally I think they should promote Susie Wolff immediately, just so we can see her more often!

    Even I have to agree. MS and Fred developed the cars.

    I feel it's rubbish, but who knows, it might happen. The situation at MB is probably too control for Ross to call the shots.

    He did great stuff at Benetton, Ferrari, Brawn, and now Merc. So maybe time for a new challenge on his side.

    Toto was told to dump his shares of Williams, which he did. The above article states Toto still has those shares, thus the article is hocus pocus.

    Yes, in the sense that MS is not a current and active driver. Her has retired a second time. He will not come back again after the first embarrassing return. Massa is an active driver and could do whatever testing they needed.

    Yeah, he's selling due to conflict of interest. Pretty obvious one at that haha. Not that WIlliams is competitive. It doesn't surprise me that it took a while to find a suitable buyer

    I still don't think Brawn is anywhere until he has a title or two with Benz. Makes no sense to go anywhere now that they're really on their way.

    Not next season.

    "Pay attention at the back there!" ;)

    - They're going to, most likely, the Middle East ahead of the season. Many more days than before.
    - Then there's 4, 3 day tests after races. Not 100% which 4 yet though.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    So just because Toto is unloading some shares the rumors are that Ross is buying in? Lol, where's the proof of that? Weak journalism.
