A Swedish newspaper just wrote that Wirdheim switches to Nakajima and will partner with Duval for 2007.

Are they smoking something? Or have they been eating the Team Dandelion's mushrooms?

I'm confused.

Possible as Hideki Mutoh, who was racing with PIAA Nakajima last year, will race in US this coming season , means there is a seat available alongside Duval

Would it mean a come back of Richard LYONS at Dandelion???

i can't believe Quintarelli was so off the pace, he used to be quite fast driver , it was only private test and already good performance of Krumm

funny to see Ishiura and Oshima driving Nippon

Indeed that is one stunning livery, the chassis looks good too. Formula One could take a leaf out of Formula Nippon's book, in terms of areodynamics I mean.

According to sources in Japan Bjorn Wirdheim will stay with Team Dandelion for one more season. All speculation about a move to Nakajiima is just rumors from a swedish journalist witch obviously mixed Bjorn Wirdheim With Yui Ide. Ide will move from Dandelion to Arta and replace Mutho. After a five days test at Sepang Bjorn and team Dandelion (Honda) ended up as the fastest driver overall on control tires 1.46.3 with Benoit Treluyer (Toyota) one tenth behind followed by Andre Lotterer (Toyota) another two tenth’s behind.

you are getting confused as well as ARTA and Nakajima ( Mutoh was driver for them last year) are 2 diferent teams

Then where is going IDE ARTA or Nakajima???

Are you talking about GT test or Formula Nippon test in Sepang as it seems like Monkey Head gived us some diferent results

5Zigen will probably enter 2 cars for Yoshimoto (GP2 last season) and maybe Hiranaka but stil TBC

Saleen.
Go and find yourself a good friend in Japan with access to the channel Go.tv. Ask your friend to buy himself a decent computer with a broadband connection and a TV card. After that you ask your friend to install a program called Orb or Webbguide 3 and then you just log in to your friends computer over the internet and suddenly you are able to take acess over his TV card and look at every race live. If you want you could schedule a recording and look at the race some hours later if you for some reason want to stay in bed Sunday morning . This type of program will give you full access to your friends TV card free of charge and the quality is amazing if the speed of the broadband is faster than 3 megabit.

Sorry Meta4.
I'm the one how is confusing things. I received info about Krumm and Ide some weeks ago and then I mixed Arting with Arta. The answer for Ide is Arta (Aguri,Autobacs) and nooooot Arting. Ide will replace Mutoh (or Mutho?) how will drive in USA in the Atlantic series if I have the correct information. All the timing at Sepang was official on the monitors and my information is from two different sources which are reliable. Bridgestone was testing another softer compound as well and the times with this tires was even faster (low 45). Controls tires is the official race tires.

Monkyeheads times is from the first day.

Mutoh was driving for Nakajima last season

Then Ide will take the seat of Kaneishi or Kogure.... at ARTA Aguri

Kogure is going to Toyota Atlanic according to my information and Dandelion has nothing to do with EMS this year.

Thats a pretty good looking entry list, theres a good 6 drivers there who could do a decent job in a series like GP2 I think, personally ill be rooting for Lotterer and Wirdheim this year to take the Championship.

Do not forget Treluyer he was far in front of anybody else last year... maybe Duval also has some chances in his second year

Bad for Hiranakasan because he was offered a drive for Dandelion but chose to signee for EMS. Now EMS is a dead fish and Cabone took the second seat for Dandelion.

MonkeyHead.
Take the question mark away for Kogure because he will definitely be the second driver for Nakajima.

as far as i know Hiranaka is not a top driver he has never done anything when he was driving for Prema in F3Es or even in Formula Nippon where he is driving for already 2 years

I think Cabone deserve more a drive at dandelion than Hiranaka

Third place in Macau is not to bad. I think both Angelo and Davide was quite happy with that!
