Funny that appears on BBC after Sky were talking about it smile

I think its a good move for Hulk, he's had an excellent second half of the season while Di Resta has suffered reliability faults and had some rather quiet drives.

If Sauber continue to make good progress with the car I could see him being on the podium regularly in 2013.

Could be a fantastic move for him. If they can keep this seasons momentum up should hopefully be a regular on the podium. Would of loved Di Resta to get the seat but has been a fairly quiet season for him.

Interesting move for him. Unlike Force India, Sauber seems to be a better team for up-and-coming drivers.

Esteban Gutierrez set to move into Kobayashi's seat...

I know there won't be much sympathy for Kobayashi today after crashing into Button, but I'm very very sad to see that he's going to be left without a seat (most likely) next season. frown

So Massa's staying at Ferrari then. Good to see Alguersuari in the frame for a drive, possibly at FI. I hope Kobi retains a race seat, today can't have helped.
I thought his comment about 'just waiting for someone else to brake and they left it really late' beggered belief...

If we all adopted that type of mentality to our driving it would utter carnage.

Not impressed with his performance or attitude to this accident which has a massive bearing on some other teams year long efforts.

Ho hum. A sideways move really. Last year Force India finished 25 points ahead of Sauber this year it looks like it could be the other way round.

Although with conserns over Vijay Mallya's finances it could be a good time to get out of the team.

Im surprised the BBC allow Andrew Benson to keep putting up headlines stating something as fact when it's not. He did the same with Lewis's move before it was confirmed and in this case you have to read through to the 6th sentence before the point is made that this is unconfirmed and as such is entirely speculation and gossip, however well founded it may turn out to be.

Hulk is still managed by Weber isn't he? Willi's a smart guy...
