    i think it good news and hope they do well would be good to see them come back up the ranks again but i do think it will be a lot for bruno senna to take !!

    I was kinda gutted to see barrachello go but he wasn't pulling results out the bag as he should have.

    Rubens had apparently fallen out with the engineers at Williams so it was performance and relationships that were the issue there.

    I hope Senna makes a good job of it. He's never had a full season in an F1 team and not had the build up and input into the car before, so I really hope he can do the job. He tested a few years ago for Honda when Brawn was there, and was very close to Buttons his lap times with no experience in the car, and beat Rubens laptime. the fact that he takes millions in sponsorship from Brazil won't have done his chances any harm.

    The other aspect here I've struggled with is that Sennas time at Williams wasn't a happy one. I'm slightly uncomfortable that he's saying he wants to bring back the memories of that time - I don't particularly want to do that. His time at McLaren - by all means. Lotus - yup, fine with that. Williams though...
