Why is there a picture of Brendon Hartley on the podium with Pentus and van der Drift?

Pentus aside I do agree Van de Drift does look good, more podiums to come from that young man |

I have to agree, I think the Racing Steps Foundation colours of Turvey's car look particularly great on the WSR Dallara.

It is very striking! The livery reminds me a lot of the BMW livery from about 10-15 years ago. Did a 3000 team run something similar for a while too, Rafanelli or some outfit?

Arrows/Footwork's livery from '94 looked a bit like Turvey's.

I think Mihai Marinescu should get a quick mention too. He was making the big step up from Formula Renault/Formula BMW and he'd had very little pre-season testing (just 44 laps) but I think he acquitted himself quite well. He had a DNF in the first race, but in the wet second race he finished 13th, gaining 9 spots from his grid position. He also matched his much more experienced team-mate Adrian Zaugg in Qualifying. AFAIK, he was only confirmed for the first round, but I'd like to see him continue with Interwetten. IMO he has more potential than the likes of Leo, Nebylitskiy, Leal etc. |

Tobias Hegewald will replace Mihai Marinescu at Interwetten.com for the Spa-Francorchamps round next weekend. Presumably this is so Hegewald can get some experience of the track ahead of the Formula 2 round there in June. |

Shame... He seemed to have quite a bit of advertising on his car too, although I notice he has been testing the Formula Master car this week as well, so maybe he was just racing the Interwetten car for some experience too (although IFM don't go to Circuit de Catalunya...)

His main backers were Petrom and I heard some Romanian oil company has slashed 5000 jobs recently so...

True... Then again look at RBS' record losses and they are still sponsoring the Williams F1 team!

Plus, for any bank - especially at the moment - pulling out of a major global deal would send the sort of signals that they really don't want echoing around the stock markets of the world... mobile phone companies, oil companies etc function on the product's appeal... banks function on trust and reputation... public (and stock market) perception is everything! |

Well, actually I haven't spotted the change since last year. Just opened his site - beu.ro and he hasn't been running with their sponsorship last season in F.BMW, but still with the same colours as in F.Renault. Sorry for the confusion
