    I don't know, I kinda like the idea. The link is basically about a Fame Academy style of show to pick the next BAR driver.

    I don't know, the link between the BAR team, Jenson Button, Louise Griffiths and Fame Academy makes me think someone is having a laugh some where.

    Dave Richards should stick to what he knows and that's not reality-style TV!!

    Richards has no place in Formula 1.

    It's too hard to comprehend F1 being brought to the level of this whole reality tv buzz. This is the premier motorsport of the last century - imagine Fittipalidi (same situation as JV - re putting his career on the line for a new team) having to compete on TV for his seat.... shame....

    It's demeaning to the sport, the teams, the sponsors and the viewers. I really hope common sense will prevail, or failing that hopefully BAT will realise what a idiot cowboy they have running their operation... prodrive schmodrive....

    phew... rant over...

    it strikes me as being a way to push JV into saying "**** it, i quit"

    TV is what drives the sport...or is it viewers?
    Regardless, TV is what is most important to F1 and imola 94 was the prime example of this. Senna dead, tv took priority and the race would continue and be finished.

    JV has absolutely no right to a drive in any team at the moment. He made a very bad decision in 97 to go and join BAR [pollack probably pushed him into it] + Williams salary[lack of] even for a WDC.

    JV had given up many years ago and BAR need someone to drive the team on...no an £18m coaster. JV might have a fighting chance if he was any way like DC...excellent with sponsors but hes a grumpy fuk who is passed it so get goin jacque...its long over due.
