Scottish Elises

I see that he is driving for Caterham this weekend, but his achievement this year was 6th in the Renault Series.

Bringing in money or sponsorship place?

Money...

He was one of their test drivers

He's not totally hopeless, he has won some rounds of world series by renault, probably puts him ahead of max chilton and Ericsson.

Good to see new blood, just hard to assess them when they are driving non competitive cars.

Take Vettel, four times World Champion in consecutive years, not a single win in 2014.

.....and played 2nd fiddle to his younger teammate too.

well, he did not make an idiot of himself, did a pretty stand-up job given the circumstances.

ended the weekend within a second of Kobayashi and did not manage to bin it.

Can not remember which Team Principal it was, but he said that any one of eight drivers could win if they were sitting in the Merc.

Surely a sport has a governing body whos first interest is the sport?

F1 is a business. An entertainment business, but straight business.
