This guy needs to go. He's been a trainwreck this season.


But with the racing being so poor and empty up front, we need all the entertainment that Maldonado brings ;)

If he only got 10 Mio $ from PDVSA, he still would be the best paydriver in F1 history, probably for ever.


Among others, Niki Lauda disagrees....

Drifting into driver-thread land, folks. Please get back to discussing whether it's fair/reasonable/whatever for Maldonado to put his foot down over no Friday outings for Palmer or it will be closed.

 

Kind of looks like it's run its course but let's see.

If they wanted him to seat out some FP1s they should have put it in the contract. Maldonado has a lot of leverage because he brings a lot of cash to Lotus's table, and he knows it. They had a moment to request this, and it was not in the middle of the second year.
