Wow, just a couple of days ago I was saying that Alguersuari deserved the seat more considering his results, and he's got it! Very interesting.

sorry, Gomick, i don't understand what you are trying to say. Number One, Alguesuari ISN'T racing in F3, he's in WSR. He won British F3 last year, in a field that, it has already been said, wasn't stellar. The three (well at least two of them) arguably best drivers, in the (definitely) best team/cars came 1st/2nd/3rd. In recent history, the winner(s) of British F3, if they haven't gone on to race in Europe in either F3 Euroseries or WSR just haven't fared well in higher categories - Conway, Asmer.

So if you are saying Jaime should be up there with the big boys, I'm not so sure. He isn't outpacing everyone in WSR, and obviously needs more experience before joining the big boys. I'm not saying he can't do that, but just not yet.

Think he shouldnt be in F3 as he has already won the British series, thats all

Usually drivers , who won japan f3(K.Oshima) or german(Vanthoor plans) or even both series(Van Dam) moving to euroseries - there is nothing wrong with it, F3ES is a much stronger series than others F3. Also Bortolotti, who was dominant in italian f3 was planning to join euroseries in 2010.
Can we say that british f3 stronger series than italian/japan/german etc? Only slightly , so being a british_f3_champion doesnt show you are ready for Big car series( see Conway,Asmer,Alguersuari examples). While euroseriesf3_champs always prove their worth( Hamilton,Di Resta,Grosjean,Hulkenberg).
Also remember Vettel, who after finishing second in F3ES came to WSR and was leading the series with Carlin, same team Alguersuari driving now and only P8.
All i wanted to say = there is nothing wrong with british_f3_champ=>f3ES move.

Well i was thinking that British F3 was highly regarded as equal to or better than Euro F3 Series - think he should naturally progress to WSR or GP2...

I am starting to think I am missing a point somewhere. Has it been announced that Jaime will race in F3ES? I haven't seen that. He is currently racing in WSR as far as I am aware

Think someone mentioned earlier that he was going to do some F3ES races...
