Yet another driver change: Sakon Yamamoto returns to F1, completing the season for Spyker. I have to say I'd kind of forgotten about him, and it's not like he's even been out of F1 that long! Sorry Sakon...

I'm sure he brings a lot of money...

His performance last year was not exaclty "outstanding"... as i recall....

Probably right there Tim... Mind you he was leagues better than Yuji Ide, and at least he's kept his hand in by racing in the GP2 series. Difficult to see how he'd be any better than Albers though...

We will see what he makes off it, hopefully he can keep up with Sutil, and i hope the B-version will get Spyker more further, or closer, up the grid...

It's not going well with Spyker at the moment, financially and sport wise...

No, it certainly isn't. They knew they were in for an uphill struggle but I don't think anyone in the team expected it to be quite so hard! Still, it's not like they're a mile away and the B-spec might help them get off the back row once in a while.

Let's see what will happen in the next races

Welcome back BTW!
