I haven't heard anything about STR actually releasing Scott from his contract -- You'd think they'd let him go with all the trouble they've been having and I can't imagine he would do any testing for them --What's going on???!!!

What is AJ's NASCAR contract looking like? I don't mean to be rude, but he is not exactly shining there, and, well, I am not sure that will change any time soon.
I wonder if the chance of winning races and championships would seem appealing? Having said that, he left CC when he was whooping stones, so, well, I guess he will stick it out. |

There was to be an announcement after the Hungary race, but so far no further news. Curious as to what the status of his contract/relationship with Red Bull is.

But who replaces him at NHLR?? - drivers will be falling over themselves to get that drive. Scott Speed springs to mind, but maybe Nelson Philippe or Justin Wilson. Maybe Timo Glock if he can't progress with F1 any further...

glad to see the official news finally, whether or not what will come of it, for better or worse, I'm glad for him that he gets the opportunity and will make the best of the situation next year (as who knows how the car will be for next season--I would hope obviously that he doesnt find himself in a "Honda" hole sort of thing)
in any case, no matter what criticisms have been put to Bourdais, it will be great to see him get a chance and hopefully drive right to the limits of the car, it will be nice to have a new driver in F1 that we have a bit more background on (for me anyway). at least he'll be adept at a non-cpu'ed-to-death car. |

One of the worst kept secrets of recent times is confirmed.
Good stuff. |
