Shoud be an interesting one. I'm well looking forward to it.

 

It does seem a bit weird that Button seems off Hamiltons pace though

 

Not weird really, button only got what he got last season due to braun being the only team to start with the double defuser, when everyone else got them button was struggling, as he has always done.

Hamilton top of the testing, hope he gets a good car this season.

FIA publish revised 2010 entry list

 

The official entry list for the 2010 FIA Formula One World Championship was republished by the FIA on Wednesday evening. Following weeks of speculation the sport’s governing body has confirmed the North Carolina-based US team will not compete, which means 12 teams will line up on the grid at next week’s season-opener in Bahrain.

 

A subsequent statement released by the FIA said: “The US team have indicated that they will not be in a position to participate in the 2010 FIA Formula One World Championship. Having considered the various options, the FIA confirms that it is not possible for a replacement team to be entered for the championship at this late stage.

 

“In the coming days the FIA will announce details of a new selection process to identify candidates to fill any vacancies existing at the start of the 2011 season.”

 

Other points to note are that Campos have changed their name to HRT following last month’s acquisition by Spanish businessman - and existing shareholder - Jose Ramon Carabante. The team are yet to reveal who will be team mate to already announced driver Bruno Senna.

 

The entry list also confirmed BMW Sauber’s place on the 2010 grid, with drivers Pedro de la Rosa and Kamui Kobayashi set to take up driver numbers 22 and 23.

 

The full entry list of constructors and drivers as published by the FIA is as follows:

2 Lewis Hamilton (GB)

 

Mercedes Benz GP Limited

3 Michael Schumacher (D)

4 Nico Rosberg (D)

be interesting to see how bruno senna gets on, heard he is a good driver! Erton (sp?) said, when he was alive, that there was only 1 person he could think of that was more mad than him, and that was his nephew bruno!

 

Lets see if he can live up to his late uncles expectations!

It's Ayrton.

 

Bruno has proven to be fairly pish so far.

 

Thats it lol! I knew I spelled it wrong, just couldnt remember the correct spelling

He's only the legend of Formula One...

 

Looking forward to this weekend, will be the first season I've watched since Schumacher's last championship in 2004.

 

And serious question, why doesn't a team try and get Ralf Schumacher back? He's still young by most drivers standards and he wasn't that back if I recall.

Guess I'm just looking back at the glory days...

 

With 4 world champions on the grid this season it should be the best season for a long time, hence why I'll actually be watching this year.

 

Plus Red Bull will hopefully have the pace to compete at the top end too.

 

4 World Champions? Has someone dropped out?

Yeah Räikkönen has pissed off to go rallying. So it's Schuey, Lewis, Jenson, and Alonso who have titles under their belt.
