FYI, this "Louise" shtick makes you seem like a 9-yr-old.
...more like 6 year old...I remember in first grade, they used to change the guys names to girl names.

Mind your business I will hate Louise as long as he drives in F1, and so I don't get banned I will leave my hatred: at prissy, lass, and louise.

It's Official! I'm eagerly awaiting his debut!
[I]Scuderia Toro Rosso announces that Sebastien Bourdais will drive for the team in the 2008 Formula 1 season. There have long been strong rumours for the Frenchman to enter F1, especially after the obvious disappointments of Berger and Tost with their current drivers. Toro Rosso will therefore have a complete new driver duo next year.
The 28 year old Frenchman will be free to join the team after the final round of this year

I had the chance to speak with one of the Honda F1 brass while in Montreal this year. I asked the question about Bourdais. He figured that Sebastian was a little too old to be starting his career in F1.
Interestingly though...he did say that he would like to see Honda approach Alonso and use the approach that they had been watching the sector times and that McLaren was obviously giving preferential treatment to Hamilton. Kind of interesting in light of what's happening now.
Too bad they didn't wait on signing the current crew to another year.

...as F1 has become a "European snobbery form of racing" which really plays into the hands of European born...

Sounds like a perfect place for Seabass.

We met Sebastien Bourdais in the Chanp Car Paddock at the Long Beach GP. I saw him next to his car and asked a team member if he would sign my race program. He did and he came over and introduced himself, shook my hand, and chatted for a couple of minutes. A nice guy.
Either judgement is just as likely to be wrong.
Now if the guy is your next door neighbor, OK. Then I would have a little more confidence that you might know whether he's a nice guy or not.
