    Not really from Ferrari

    Just another media speculation.
    I hope we don't open a new thread for every name speculated :D

    (see the ferrari site for that ;) )

    With all the rumours, I think it would be easier to make a list of drivers that we surely WON'T see in the Ferrari cockpit this year...

    I'm thinking all of these drivers have contracts; No ?
    What would be BMW's motivation for releasing Kubica early and who would they replace him with ?

    This is why they scraped the barrel with BAD.

    Well I read that the Bmw drivers are free to go whenever they want since
    the team as retired for next year.

    Isn't that usually the case?

    Like I said, looks like Ferrari will just have to run a few more cars next season!

    Well, there's Lauda, Prost, and ....

    Hmm. It's hard to exclude *anyone*, the way the rumors have been flying.

    (But I'm still pretty sure that Vijay started that "Fisi" rumor, just to get Giancarlo psyched up for Spa. :p)

    Vijay owes Ferrari some serious cash from last year’s engine deal.

    However Fisi having a near win at SPA may have changed things, Vijay wouldn't want to lose him at such a moment in the team’s history, now would he!!.

    Everyone take a deep breath and repeat after me....BIG BUSINESS...
    If it made good business sense, it will happen.

    ...saying that, Kubica, if nothing else would give Ferrari one hell of a bargaining chip. Didn't he grow up in Italy?

    He never drove since 2006. And he never had a taste of this year's cars. So i think, he could be as slow as Badoer.

    he also said it might be Troy Queef, but I discounted that as rediculous

    Poifekt!

    Then the cameras can stop spending all their time on Nicole and focus some "babeage" time on Ashley. ;)

    And everybody will be hoping for more wet races. :D

    Why would BMW let Kubica go?
    If they're looking to sell the team having him on board increases its value.
