Probably good for Midland, as it will bring that oft-sought Dutch sponsorship money. In the end, a sub-par driver (by F1 standards, not meant to be a knock on Albers) to a sub-par car. I expect he will be looking at the back wing of the Red Bull Jr. cars next year... but he found a way to keep on in F1, kudos to him.

Albers did a decent job in the Minardi this year, he definately deserves a crack at another season - unlike some I could mention..

Rob.

Well, shiny, to be fair, I think he is an above-par pay driver.

He looked good until Doornbos joined the team and instantly matched or bettered his pace. F1 is keeping the wrong Dutch driver in my mind.

He more than deserves it. A;lbers was great in dtm, and hopefully Paffett will follow him

I'd have to agree with this, Robert seems to me to be more deserving of a race seat than Albers, given his performance with close to no beforehand experience with the car/tracks.

I believe Robert may get a role of some sort at Red Bull - he has close links with Christian Horner

sorry, no. Doornbos raced in fewer races, has less experience and isn't as good at the press element. test driver maybe for another team

Even though it's a small step up the pecking order it's still a step nonetheless. Good move by Albers in my view.

I have been told that the Dutch press have asked head engineer Andy Tilly who he thought did the better job. He said that Doornbos was a very good driver, but Albers a BLOODY good driver.

As ITV never paid any attention to the Minardi drivers, I can't confirm this, but it is said that Doornbos spent to much time with the (Dutch) press instead of spending that time trying to develop the car.
