Williams confirm Maldonado will remain with team

[Chris Jenkins]

But faster means nothing without points unfortunately.

 

[stbreaker]

Neither of them were scoring points though. Rubens had 2 points finishes to Maldonado's 1 over the entire season.

 

[Ramon Alonso]

How much are his overlord's paying for his ride?

 

[Xosé Estrada]

Less than Sergio Perez ones

 

[Hampus Andersson]

The guy is a GP2 World Champion. He´s had an ok year in Williams, stop hatin.

Your all miss understanding what Frank said, by quick and consistant he means quick and consistant at withdrawing the cash from the nearest ATM.

 

[Hampus Andersson]

According to you, who from the "you need to bring money" teams did better than Maldonado?

 

[António da Cunha]

Any idea who will be the other driver for Williams? Sutil? Barrichello? Any other?

 

[Hampus Andersson]

My heart says Barrichello. Seems like a truly nice guy.

 

[David Jundt]

Has it been mentioned? Rubens has apparently found a sponsor that would pay 5M for 1 season, which would be enough for him for now.

Williams wants Sutil on a 2 year contract, but somehow there are rumours Sutil could replace Massa(!) at Ferrari in 2013, and he only wants a 1 year contract.

Looks like Rubens can live with less, Sutil not.

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Interesting stuff, but i really hope Sutil does not take Massa´s place. That spot in my opinion should be taken first and foremost by Kubica if he ever gets back into F1.

Otherwise i would rather see Kobayashi or Perez or even Bianchi just to see how they would fare against a 2 time world champion.

 

[António da Cunha]

I would be pleased if Barrichello is staying for one last season. He's been working this last two seasons with Williams, trying to improve the car and might be important as a link (on this switch of engine and engineers) to have an experienced driver that already knows what's going on with the team.

 

[Michael Brown]

Yeah I'd like to see Rubens go for one more season. As for Massa's seat, I want Kobayashi in there.
