    I guess t-boneing Schumacher in 2003 was the cars fault. That makes Sato a trained chimp just along for the ride.

    That's not as bad as hitting a stationary car at the end of pit lane like the current WC did.

    So Sato beat Buemi by 3 tenths today. If he continues to be fastest, they should give him the seat. Let Buemi be test driver for a year. But the jury is still out.

    What is annoying about SATO is that because of his personal sponsorship he will probably get the seat next to Buemi. I know that there has always been paying F1 Drivers. Sato has always shown to have flashes of being quick, but I think he is a let down in terms of Race Craft. I hope Bourdais keeps his seat and doesn't lose it to Sato over sponsorship, but I think that is what is going to happen.

    Might be Brian, but I don't think Berger is a big fan of Seabass, as he has stated many times, he feels Seabass lacks confidence. I think it is going to be Buemi and Sato.

    That's the thing. Berger has never been the type of team boss that would actually say anything to give confidence to their driver's. Unless you are favoured, like Vettel was.

    Very much so, actually I think Berger like most ex Drivers is a lousy team manager. Vettel so far has been the only exception on the drivers front at Toro Rosso, the rest were treated pretty badly.
