I have to say if STR drop Bourdais then they need both their head read and a lesson in good manners. The fact that a driver ov Bourdais caliber may be dumped at a time where he is seatless for the year as all other seats in different series have been finalised???? Bad manners.

Personally I'd love to se Bourdais remain at STR. He did a few good things last season and deserves another go. I'd also love to see Will Power get a run in the second Penske if Castroneves is unavailable. Last edited by Tucky70; 10 Jan 2009 at 02:33. |

Official: Buemi to STR

will any top teams get a third non-points scoring car, in order to maintain a 20 car grid.

My Favourite 08 moment was when Courtney/Besnard comeback drive at Bathurst. Courtney raced through to dominate the opening stint had 15 sec. gap to Lowndes who was in 2nd. In the 2nd stint a slowly deflating tyre (originally diagnosed as a damaged anti-roll bar) slowed Besnard's stint in Courtney's car allowing Whincup to assert dominance over the field rest of the race. On lap 160 S.Richards, fading badly on rear tyres was unable to stop Courtney move into 3rd place. |

How would a non points-scoring car work? Would it just circulate with no aim other than that of "gathering data"?
Surely it would clog up the top eight and cause others to lose points...? Could someone please clarify this? Thanks. :-) |

And that it would be up to other teams to make sure that their cars are not hindered by non constructor point scoring cars. All this is,however,completely irrelevant as no teams will need to field 'third' cars until the field is reduced to 14. |
