I know the RC Motorsport line up was a tad lightweight in 05 to say the least, but you have to agree zero points return for an entire season in WSR3.5 is still shocking, still, as they say, the only way from here is up.

Would've thought Tuka Rocha might be sizing up a drive with them as well?! |

Any news on times from the test yet folks?
I'm keen to see following: 1/ McIntosh' progress. 2/ Dirani's times Maldonado's down to drive for 2 teams... can anyone confirm yet what Renault's position is regarding him continuing on the driver programme as this will effect what he does next year.. |

Not 100% sure, but I think Fleming and Aleshin are pretty much confirmed at Carlin? And I'm sure Stoddart is a definite with Comtec.

Thats an impressive comeback for RC!
Maldonado 2nd...interesting. Last Q with DAMS he was 23 and 27..seems the Epsilon car is really fast, but we knew that right? =) |

Impressed with Soucek, Valsecchi and Barba on their debuts... and Hanley's again showing a lot of potential. Thought Comtec would be higher up, seeing as they've already been testing the old Nissan V6 car this year.

is maldonado still a rdd member? He's testing everywhere, so I believe he is not supported by Renault anymore.

Any news on what Kamui Kobayashi is doing next year? I thought he'd be looking at WSR like Ammermuller and Clairay?

Isn't Toyota putting him in Euroseries (Manor, maybe)? I agree that Wsr 3.5 would be the natural choice. The jap know all tracks already.

However his high level of testing could be that Flavio is continuing to back him thus he has some money to spend on all this testing to find the right team to win it next year, or, like we assume, he has been dropped and is trying hard to get more sponsorship for a drive? |
