The only dutch driver over there is Robin Frijns, i rate him higher then vd Garde & Melker


Indeed.


And he's been fast in the testing!

Still better than F2

It seems that WSBR is the way to go now


Which is surprising for a series that was cancelled and then un-cancelled again nearly a year ago!

Teixeira confirmed in Rapax. I'm afraid.

-------------

And talking about Lorenzo test, look at this idi** called journalist here in Spain:

Translate of the headline: Superb time of Lorenzo in a Gp2 impresses F1
Facepalm

Not a good line up this year is it? It's slowly turning into a rich kids playground as prices increase, like what happened to F3000...

Anyway, to add to the driver line-up

A lot of last years top scoring drivers do seem to have gone. But its another year and these are all young(ish in some cases) drivers still so I remain hopeful for some good races and a fun series. We know the coverage should be good, unless sky decide to put ads in the middle of races.

This series became a freakin joke. Texeira and that Serenelli dude are the latest proof of it.

Biggest talent in the series is probably Gutièrrez , and it is known that he also got a big sponsor behind him.

Yes, but that's because F2 is shit.

GP2 used to be amazing until they got rid of the first car.

There are some promising drivers this year - Nasr, Calado, Gutierrez but there's a lot of guys who are now in their 4th or 5th year in the series - Valsecchi, Van der Garde, Razia, Leimer, as well as some rich guys just playing around.

FR3.5 line-up this year is so much better.

Ericsson could become a regular winner this year. But F1 material he is not.

I really enjoyed gp2 last year, it was a good series. But that was the first year I had seen it so I have no reference.
I will stay positive.
