JV will not go to Renault, he's too old to be buttfucked by Briatore.
DC will not go to Renault, he's too old to be buttfucked by Briatore.
RS will not go to Renault, he's too old to be buttfucked by Briatore and he has a "good" agent (meaning one that will not let the money being taken from him).
JT will not go to Renault, he's been already buttfucked by Briatore.
KR will go to Ferrari to win races because Renault won't do so next season.
MW COULD go to Renault, he young enough to be buttfucked by Briatore.
CK COULD go to Renault, he young enough to be buttfucked by Briatore

Briatore will ONLY take drivers who have an agent contract with him.

Why do you think Trulli was kicked out of Renault 2 WEEKS after refusing to extend his agent contract with Briatore ? Check out the interviews from Flavio, Jarno was the greatest driver in the world and suddenly he was the worst of all times....

Why do you think Alonso RAN away from Renault which clearly has the best package so far to McLaren which hasn't won a title since 98 ? Do you believe Alonso is stupid/vain enough to think he is 1 second faster than Raikkonen and he will win in the McLaren next year ?

I think he just wanted to get out of the bloodsucking Flavio and he knows that 2007 won't be Renault's year anyway.

So bottomline is if you want to know who's driving for Renault next year, wait for a press release from Flavio announcing his new agent contract and surprisingly enough THIS driver will suddenly become "very fast, very professional, the future or F1" and 2 weeks later he will be offered a fat, juicy 2 year contract to be together with Fisichella.

Since they all change tyres to Bridgestone next year Flavio has the IDEAL excuse not to win "we are not used to the tyres" even if in reality he has 2 lousy drivers because excuse me for saying so but in my opinion Fisichella is the Barichello of Renault, clearly below his teammate.

So, no JV to Renault, no DC, maybe Kimi, but why go to Renault when you can go to Ferrari and benefit from the tyre experience they have accumulated, after the last 2 years is it clear enough for EVERYBODY that the tyres are EVERYTHING in the performance of the car ? Is it CLEARER after USGP ? SO next years looks like Ferrari year again because the Bridgestones are DESIGNED for this car, they will be able to test next year's tyre before everybody (they probably already are) and in something like F1 you can never get back a 6 months testing advantage for 1 team.

We could end up having Jenson at Renault, it is only a matter of time before the Honda guys realise he's not THAT good, and now that the management has switched from british and blind to Jenson's flaws to Japanese and WIDE AWAKE and aware of the reality I don't think they will do much to retain him, who is Jenson's agent anyway ? Does anybody know for how long his contract runs ?

Anyway the races are so boring that the contracts are almost the only interesting thing to watch, that and Bernie's imbecile statements on the USA "We love them" and 2 weeks later "Who gives a fuck about them, they have no sponsor", I'd remind him of a certain cigarette brand, red and white, with a dead cow boy being the central advertising character which has been THE major F1 sponsor for what ? The last 30, 35 years ? Bernie, you're the man !!!

Just a shot in the dark, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you
like Briatore do you?

Wrong. Fisichella doesn't. He's managed by Enrico Zanarini.

Kovalainen already has a management contract with Renault. Not Briatore
personally, but he makes the decisions on Heikki's future anyway. If
they don't get Kimi, it will be Heikki.

We don't even know for certain his teammate yet. I think he'll be
slightly better than Kovalainen at first, then quite evenly matched.
Soon as Heikki gets the experience, he'll beat Fisico. Not the first
year, though.

Essentially Sport group, one and a half seasons remaining. When the
contract was announced, the manager was Duncan Hickman, but he was
appointed as a temporary manager, so I don't know if he run's Jenson's
businesses any more.

But Jenson has a multi-year contract with Honda. He's not going
anywhere. Besides, Honda wouldn't get any better ones.

True, not really, well I don't really like the renault people for letting themselves put in a position where the guy who's choosing the drivers is also the agent of the said drivers.

It's too easy, he just goes to renault and tells them "you have to hire him, pay him A LOT because he's good" and these MORONS at renault (maybe now that Patrick FAURE is gone it will be just a little less worse) just say "we are so lucky to have you flavio !"

I think flavio is FAR from being "ethically correct" and I think renault are MADMEN to hire this guy and say "amen" to everything he says.

That podium in Monaco could not have happened unless Barrichello had
that drive through penalty. No wins since 2004. MS should stay if he
can continue to win. Otherwise, sayonara. In addition, Fisichella might
win a race in 07 if he can restrain from stalling. If Raikkonen does
replace MS, he could win. Lastly, I agree on the MW and KC.

Then again, with him leading the team, he has brought former Benetton

Not bad from a guy who's come from outside of motor racing.
