Minardi 3rd driver
So, PS has had this idea of giving a local driver a run on the Friday test-xtra to bump up sonsorship. My question of the day - who will it be. (Ignoring sponsorship - sponsor a local driver and national race, shouldn't be a problem and any potential superlicence difficulties).

I can see a good few posibilities for Australia: James Courtney or Will Power; same for the UK - Robbie Kerr or Ant Davidson if he doesn't get a 'proper' drive. Some countries though I'm stuck on - Hungary? :confused: Any other ideas?

Zsolt Baumgartner (sp?) is from Hungary.
Wait till 2004, then we'll have to find drivers from Bahrain and Turkey (or wherever)...

Uhm... Roberto's got more than enough experience in bottom-of-the-grid F1 cars. Besides, he's probably going to be back in CART next year with Herdez (yay!!!), and doesn't have a lot of money.

I'm sure Emmo or Nelson Piquet will always be able to produce some flavor-of-the-month for Minardi.

*formula3* how can U call Zsolt a "driver"???????
Monaco ? French
San Marino ? Italian
US ? whoever will be it will be a bad choice(I just wanna say that american drivers linked with F1 are bad, not all american drivers)

Paul Ewards and Scott Speed are excellent. A.J. Allmendinger, I think, could be world champion someday, but he still needs a lot more experience... He'll just be starting in Toyota Atlantics next year.

Bryan Herta, who's been linked to Minardi, is a good guy and a fast driver... But he really doesn't have a killer instinct, doesn't pull out anything special under pressure.

Speedworx should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Australia = James Courtney
Malaysia = Mohammed Fairuz
Brazil = Fabio Carbone
San Marino = Manuel Poggiali (races bikes, but can't think of another person)
Spain = Marcel Costa
Austria = Matthias Lauda
Monaco = Clivio Piccione
Canada = Billy Asaro
Germany = Nico Rosberg
France = Bruce Jouanny
Great Britain = Robbie Kerr
Germany = Roland Rehfeld (ASCAR racer, used to be in single seaters)
Hungary = Zsolt Baumgartner
Italy = Giorgio Pantano
United States = Richard Antinucci
Japan = Shinya Hosokawa

Its not that hard to find one for each country. San Marino is the one that doesn't have any single seater drivers, but has motorcycle racers.

I'd like to see Sarah Fisher actually race - after that test with McLAren this year - and with Indy experience (I know, wrong way round etc. - but experience!!)

Girls can't race in F1. They are better suited to the proper racing world of ovals.

For Germany, why not Marcel Lasse?

Also, I think for the race in San Marino, an Italian will suffice, especially since the race isn't even in San Marino.

Hakkiman,

Nico Rosberg! since when has he been German. Go for Timo Glock or Markus Winkelhock.

That was a demonstration drive Asp, not a test, just something to please the crowds. (and the sponsers)

Gawd save us macho misogynists. Sarah Fisher qualified on pole position for the IRL race at Kentucky earlier this year and finished 18th in the series.That's not a bad achievement. Is it written in women's genes that they can't drive clockwise?

N. Rosberg is born in Germany, that's why I don't like him.

I have to say that I did forget that Rosberg is Finnish and not German. I didn't even plan to have him for the European GP.

Worked out nicely overall to cover my mistakes

Don't forget, San Marino isn't a proper country and, in any case, the Imola circuit is not in San Marino at all, it is miles and miles away in Italy. The GP was called that cos they couldn't think of another name!
