Its amazing that so many teams havent confirmed their complete line-ups .. usually by now 80% of the seats would be confirmed with only Minardi and Jordan holding out till they find the driver who can bring in the biggest sponsorship :D

The Teams that have confirmed its drivers for the following season are as far as i know:

Ferrari: R.Barrichelo and M.Schumacher

Renault: F. Alonso and G.C.Fisichella

Williams: M. Webber and J. Button

McLaren: J.P. Montoya and K. Raikkonen

Toyota: R. Schumacher

about the other teams....i see very likely that Takuma Sato is going to continue with BAR as long as the team continues with Honda, that C. Klien will continue with Jaguar as well once he has a big sponsor which supports the team and he is a quick driver, i see that Heidfeld continuing Jordan unless he contracts with another team, Trulli will run with Toyota despite there is no official confirmation. In addition, and in my opinion, i see Felipe Massa driving for Sauber as well.....it makes some sense to me to see David Coulthard at Jaguar for the next season.....about Minardi and Jordan, as long as they continue in a similar situation...drivers with some sponsor behind of them such as Baumgartner, Pantano....will have a lot of chance to continue in their currents teams

well hopefully if this dubai firm buy jordan we should see them a lot more competitive. And as for minardi, just being in the F1 championship is an achievement, but to stay in for as long as they have always at the bottom is quite amazing. I do feel sorry for them though ;)

What about DeLaRosa to BAR??? I heard it in the last F1 coverage in Hungary. And for Ville... I think he lost the F1 train.

Did he at least attempt to join with any teams?
