I think they will recover, but it is certainly not ideal. That is two years in a row that this team has been rocked by something in pre-season testing.

That might sound like a bit of a contradiction, but the driver only gets paid a fraction of what they bring to the team. I think the lowest-paid driver in 2011 (I don't remember who it was) got around $250,000 while they brought several million to their team.Besides, drivers have to be paid. How else would they live from day to day with no other source of income? Fracno, I think most drivers get paid – even if they are paying for the seat themselves.
