Williams confirms 2007 Drivers...
 
and Webber is out!!!

Wurz and Rosberg are officially the drivers for next years Toyota powered WilliamsF1 cars.

I feel so bad for Webber though, he is fast but has an inconsistent car that breaks down at the most inopportune time. :|

that is really crap, because Webber is very consistant IMO; but the car is unreliable; where he's regularly in contention for a podium, where Rosberg isn't.

hopefully Webber moves to Renault, that would be really interesting

I am surprised by Wurz, not that he isn't good but I didn't think about him ... I think that he's got talent and will make a good job (for free :?: )
Webber will maybe go to Renault ...

There is a rumor saying Webber might go to Red Bull to replace Klein but I doubt he would want to be a backup driver to DC this late in his career

But what do I know, Im just some schmuck on a forum :P

"WURZ WURZ WURZ, lang lebe WURZ" :P

Finally? Wurz drove for the old Benetton team for some time. It's about time Webber moved on from Williams. I also hope he drives for Renault.

Webber favourite for Renault drive

I'd be surprised if Renault took Webber over Kovalainen...

But I don't think this is confirmed by Kimi or any agent, just an article of what might be going on.

5 year contract, get €160 mil... that's what I call a salary!

nickthaskater 08-03-2006 07:09 AM

That's right next to Schumacher's last reported salary (a little less, but close).

Though as far as I know, that's just a rumor at the moment.

Well it makes sense. With Brawn rumored to be taking a 1-year leave it looks more and more likely. Ferrari obviously still believes MS is the best driver, but they're shrewd enough to realize that at most he will drive 2 more years (and that would be a stretch) while Kimi could drive for another 10 years. So, do you sacrifice Kimi for one-year of MS? No. My guess is they're asking MS to drive alongside Kimi or take his leave. MS should stay and drive by KR.

That would be a good show regardless of the competiveness of Ferrari :D
