And a few interesting quotes from some of the drivers:

Adrian Quaife-Hobbs: "No decisions have been made yet for 2011, but Formula Renault 3.5 Series with Comtec Racing now has to be at the top of my list!"

Alexander Rossi: "These tests have only confirmed our opinion of ISR. If we are going to take part in the FR 3.5 Series in 2011, then it will be with ISR and no-one else."

Stephane Richelmi: "I will be driving in FR 3.5 Series in 2011. After F3, I believe it's the best compromise."

p-matt · 19 Oct 2010, 20:17 (Ref:2777225)

Rossi with ISR seems like a very exciting combination!

**bella** · 19 Oct 2010, 22:01 (Ref:2777255)

mckenzie's been a bit quiet at every test so far, hasn't he?

Didn't he drove with ISR in the Formula Masters to? I think this year will be more competetive then 2010 when it was all about Aleshin and Ricciardo..
Such a shame Esteban didn't drove the whole year, he was the best driver!

I Like to see Dutch Daniel de Jong in this class

He did well with his first tests with Draco and Comtec!

Brioche · 20 Oct 2010, 18:29 (Ref:2777608)

Don't know why Mortara didn't get involved in these tests, i think WSR will eventually be his choice for next year.

That he did, and ISR was the team that he drove in Monaco for.

**chunterer** · 21 Oct 2010, 10:35 (Ref:2777863)

There were quite a few drivers pencilled in on that initial list that weren't actually there, like Bottas etc?

Valker · 21 Oct 2010, 11:02 (Ref:2777882)

Bottas was testing yesterday (3rd day was the "champions day" for F3, FR2.0, etc prize tests).

Results (aamupäivä=morning, iltapäivä=afternoon; sorry for the language)

Thanks Valker, reckon I got confused about which day and for what reason people were running.

Rf1 Fan · 1 Nov 2010, 20:47 (Ref:2783706)

We will see a great silly season i think....

Rf1 Fan · 2 Nov 2010, 17:43 (Ref:2784099)

eurosport stays as diffusor and partner of World Series by Renault for 2011.

JVD · 9 Nov 2010, 13:57 (Ref:2787581)

If i'm right FR 2.0 Champion Korjus is going to drive by Tech1 next year..

**bella** · 9 Nov 2010, 14:26 (Ref:2787591)

that'd be a cracking choice if ever there was one for both parties...

**bella** · 11 Nov 2010, 16:32 (Ref:2788651)

So who does anybody think will be the team to beat for next year?

I hope it's ISR. I'm biased, though.

I think that if Tom Dillmann stays in ISR he could be a title contender.

You can only make a judgement on that when the driver line-ups are fully confirmed!

formula_fan · 26 Nov 2010, 12:34 (Ref:2796041)

from looking at this season and the testing it looks as though Rossi could be a challenger with ISR, or perhaps if they keep Vergne, then Tech 1 will be there or thereabouts again next year

Rumour has it no Red Bull for Tech 1. ??
