No tears shed here. Never did like the kid. A lot of pomp and no results to back it up.

He's on one of the worst teams in F1. What do you expect?? Given a good car he could be competitive but he will likely never be given that chance.

If F1 sees if fit to not race in America and not have any American drivers I see no need to continue to watch F1.

That's what the guys were saying on the SPEED broadcast.

I'm sad to see him go - always struck me as a good kid, and he did a great job with what he had to work with. Maybe he could replace Ralph at Toyota.

I don't believe he would ever be better than mid pack, but my opinion is admittedly biased. I just plain don't like the guy.

You know, the FIA should just declare F1 as a Euros only club and be done with it.
