Montezemolo has been saying he’d like to see it next year in a third car if the new teams fail

Hi James,

Which is more difficult? Winning an f1 drivers championship or wrc drivers championship?

Hi James,

Can Seb Leob make it 7 world titles in a row in 2010? Can you see Red Bull giving him another f1 test if he keeps winning?

Hi James,

I keeping asking myself every year will Michael Schumacher ever race or test again in f1?

What you think of his chances of returning for that 8th title?

Hello James,

Toyota have now pulled out of f1 racing and Renault may do the same shortly. Do you think this will weaken the championship status and the 2010 f1 champion will have less value?

I do think it will be difficult, yes.

Hi James, I think it will be difficult for any new or past drivers to come into f1 with limited testing. Do you believe Loeb responce that he’s misted his chance to come into f1?

Good point Sean, like Schumacher you mean? It’s not as if the sport needed any injections of drama this season!

Sebastien Leob takes his sixth wrc drivers championship in a row. This is supreme achievement in any world class sport. Its a pitty he’s not taking part in f1 this weekend. But due to limited f1 testing rules of 2009 I’m glad Sebastien is not giving it a go and its quite obvious that Michael Schumacher opted out for the same reasons.
It would look bad to see both these world class drivers stuggle at the back of the grid and race. Maybe if the FIA changed the rules a bit to allow talented drivers to gain testing experience we could see a more exciting f1 emerging in 2010. I have been dissapointed this year by f1 when you hear great names coming into the sport and then hearing of their withdrawel again at the last minute.

James could you give me your views on this?
