Louts, what a sneaky little team.

At the end of 2011 I loathed their team management and was pretty sure the team was going downhill.

Then they sign Raikkonen and things have started being much much better ever since. The team looks motivated and it reminds me of the better Benetton days. Really pleased for the team.

Then stop calling them louts. :P

Errrmmmm.... no.

Considering you're a Kimi fanboy, you were always going to change your opinion of the team and it's management. Wouldn't you say?

This must have been on the table since Coca-Cola saw Heidfeld at the 2011 Hungarian GP.

Gutierrez confirmed as Sauber driver for next year by Perez. During an interview with the Spanish media, Perez let slip that Hulkenberg will have a strong teammate in Esteban during the interview.

Also, no more free F1 in the Netherlands next year . The rights will go to Sport1, so if you wanna see F1 here, you have to buy it.

I still have RTL Deutschland and BBC.

I wait till Sport1 will announce what they will do with F1. If they only broadcast the race and hire Olav Mol, I will not buy Sport1.

I already have Sport1 so for me that won't have a real effect (Just hoping they won't raise the prises for a F1 channel). But I really hope they ditch Olav Mol.

Let's hope RTL spend their money on other motorsport next year, live Indycar or Nascar. That's a lot cheaper than F1.

not a surprise, but I'm sorry for Kobayashi

So is Carlos Slim both Sauber and Mclaren. Or did Mclaren chose Perez on his talent?

It's now official for Gutierrez, Frijns is the new reserve driver.

And Charles Pic is confirmed at Catheram for 2013 and beyond !

Pic has signed for Caterham on a multi-year deal.

busiest silly season in years

Opens the door for Chilton at Marussia.

Well, one seat left at Force India : Sutil, Buémi, Bianchi are the main candidates

Van der Garde may get the second Catheram seat.

Grosjean still unconfirmed for 2013 but I think he will be unless major problem ...

If Koba doesn't get a seat it'll be the first time since 2001 that there hasn't been a full time Japanese driver in F1

As for Williams it'll be Maldonado, no clue who the 2nd driver could be

If not Senna, Bottas.

So:
Red Bull: Vettel, Webber
Ferrari: Alonso, Massa
Mclaren: Button, Perez
Mercedes: Hamilton, Rosberg
Lotus: Raikkonen, Grosjean
Sauber: Hulkenberg, Gutierrez
Force India: Di Resta, Bianchi
Williams: Maldonado, Bottas
Toro Rosso: Ricciardo, Vergne
Marussia: Chilton, Glock
Caterham: Pic, Van der Garde
HRT: Scrapyard

Boullier mentioned that Lotus has signed a Dutch driver, any guesses?
