F1 "Silly Season."
Speculation/Rumors/Innuendo! These things make "bench-racing" an enjoyable pastime. However, all good things must come to an end! My question is this: When do you all think that we will have a good grip on the driver/team lineups for 2003?
Looking forward to your input and an end to Silly Season so we can begin discussing the wisdom of the signings/firings! |

Freud - yes I realize this has been discussed a bazillion times, I apologize if I was not clear enough! My question is related to when we would have a firm idea: announcements made, glowing press releases etc. I am not real familiar with the contractual periods used so I am wondering when everything will be firmed up for '03.

Ferrari: M. Schumacher - Rubens Barrichello
McLaren: D. Coulthard - K. Raikkonen Williams: R. Schumacher - J.P. Montoya Renault: F. Alonso - J. Trulli Toyota: M. Salo - C. da Matta Jordan: G. Fisichella - T. Sato (or Eddie Irvine, when Ford wants it to happen) Minardi: J. Wilson - A. Davidson (or Bryan Herta) Jaguar: P. Delarosa - M. Webber Sauber: N. Heidfeld - F. Massa (or H.H. Frentzen when Peter Sauber isn't coming to his senses in time) BAR: J. Villeneuve - J. Button I don't think Arrows will compete in 2003. For the time being its far too early to predict in which form a new team will take its place. Interesting to see that there still are people who list a second rate driver, who couldnt manage to score more than 20 points in 8 seasons, more often than not saw a contract not extended (and the only time it happened, he was released from that contract), and up till now hasn't drove a single mile in a racingcar of any sort from oktober 2001 on. Quite annoying actually. Last edited by NiceGuyEddie; 20 Aug 2002 at 16:29. |

Massa (I think, but Heinz maybe?) Jordan: 11. Fisichella, 12. Sato (or Irvine, or Heinz) BAR: 14. Villeneuve, 15. Button (don't see JV back to CART) Jaguar: 16. De la Rosa, 17. Webber (PDLR seemed confirmed, but who knows?) Minardi: 18. Herta?, 19. (as always, who knows) Toyota: 20. Salo, 21. da Matta (or HHF, or Irvine, or McNish even) Arrows? Phoenix anyone? |

I would not be surprised if Webber goes somewhere other than Jaguar. Just remember who told you first.

This from friend of Dancing Machine
Ferrari : SchM and Rubens
Williams: Ralf and JPM )JPM not 100% confirmed) Mclaren : Kimi and DC Renault : Trulli and Alonso Jordan : Fisi and HHF Sauber: Heidfeld and Webber BAR: Villeneuve and Bunsen Jaguar: HHF and Webber Arrows: Bernoldi and Webber Toyota: Salo and HHF Minardi: Webber and Herta It is my understanding that these teams' drivers positions are final and contracts have already been signed for all teams.

My limited understanding:
Ferrari - Same McLaren - Same Williams - Same Renault - Trulli/Alonso Jordan - Fisichella/Sato BAR - JV/Button Sauber - Heidfeld/? (Most likely Massa, very impressive in Hungary) Jaguar - Webber/PDLR Arrows (or whatever they are called) - Bernoldi/? Minardi - ?/? Toyota - Salo/da Matta |
