He's overrated and if he tries cheating in the British series they'll toss him

He's set to test for Promatecme before Christmas is all I've heard. Watch the site as I'll update any news as I get it.
Looks as though next years grid could be really strong.

Well he's got the equivalent of like 3 F3 seasons under his belt in mileage, so i wont be surprised if he's competitive next year

sure, he´ll always have the advantage of more money and more testing, but on the other hand the pressure on him will be much higher than on other young drivers...

He had something like 6000miles of F3 testing before his first start, plus all of this years experience, plus his illegal testing, plus unlimited funds. He basically has to dominate next year. And dont give me the excuse of pressure. Id take all the pressure in the world for more experience than the rest of the grid and more money.

surely he isnt the first "son of a rich man" to come along.... get over the "so called" cheating and wait to see where he races next year - then judge him
nelson piquet was my first f1 hero - cant wait to see what piquet jnr does....

"So called" ? he was in clear and blatant violation of the testing rules. and yeah he's not the first guy to have a bottomless budget, but I cant think of anyone with as much testing mileage as him. This isnt F1, even though thats what they're fast tracking him for.

Get your point Russfeld , but we have to just see how good he may or maynot be ? I remember some fantastic racing between his dad/ Chico Sarra and Derek Warwick. and Chico had 2 cars he had so much dosh.

I don't care how good he is if he's a cheat. Ross races himself, presumably follows the rules and therefore has the right to be ****ed off about those that don't.
*I don't believe I'm defending Ross!*
