While everyone here worries about Kubica's hand, this precious lady has made a video tribut specially for him:
My stomach still hurts from laughing.

that women is just 
She's a maniac, she's just posted another video like that on her profile and there will be more, she basically claims that she's in love with Kubica, thinks he's the sexiest man alive and wants to marry him, oh and she has also obviously learned to dance for him.

Robert Kubica to spend two more days in intensive care after horror rally smash | Mail Online

I'm pretty sure any driver in F1 would like to drive for Ferrari, and for him it will almost certainly happen one day, perhaps not in the too distant future depending on how long Massa is kept on by them.
Aside from being crowned champion there's probably not much of a better feeling than winning at Monza in a red car.

Lets hope the trouble in Bahrain does not get any worse .
If it did get to the level of Tunisia or Egypt , then I don't see how they could hold the F1 race there.

I wonder if they could do an emergency race in Qatar? They've got the track and the infrastructure. I just hope more people don't die more then anything.
If it does get Canx and to be honest it is looking more and more likely , I think they will start the new season with the Australian Grand Prix and either reschedule the Bahrain GP or just shorten the season by 1 race.
GP2 practice session in Bahrain has been called off due to medical crews being deployed elsewhere...

Bahrain GP2 now cancelled by their motorsport federation. No point second guessing F1GP in such volatile circumstances but doesn't look good

This was on the BBC site
When Spa was cancelled for track issues in 1985 they ran it later in the year, but F1 schedule, comerciality, + TV so much more complex now
The situation in Bahrain is not going to be solved quickly and the GP is in only 3weeks.
If the race goes ahead you can almost certain that there will be some sort of disruption
and that could be the death of driver or the person doing the disruption and nobody wants that.
Maybe the right thing to do is to canx the race.

One thing is for sure, Bernie will be very reluctant to cancel it outright - he'd lose a lot of money.
you are right , but looking right now what other choice does he really have , is there any space in the calender to reschedule the race?
You cant have a GP being run when people are dying for there right to a democratic government.
It will probably be postponed with a date TBA for as long as possible, should the trouble die down quite soon after the race is currently scheduled then they will find a date for it.
This may be the case , but the calender is pretty full will be hard to fit it in else where.
Mind you I see that the Indian GP has been taken off the BBC race calender , maybe they could use those dates.
Like short shorts said, FOM will try their utmost to rearrange it if it comes down to it. There are obviously logistical issues to consider, but the F1 circus tackles them pretty well, I'd be surprised if it's cancelled altogether.
Part of an interview on BBC.
Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone has warned the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix in March will be cancelled if unrest in the country continues.
F1 teams are concerned about the event after three people were killed overnight in clashes with police.
Ecclestone said he will make a decision on whether to cancel early next week.
He said: "If things stay as they are today, the answer is no. If it's not quietened down by Wednesday, I think we will have to cancel probably."
Looks like we may have to wait till Australia for the first GP of the season.

Can't see it happening, they will call it off with plenty of time before the first race so they can seek alternatives or more likely organises another test session.
John booth said there is a good chance we may have to wait until the Melbourne GP because testing is on the 3rd in Bahrain he said the freight had already shipped out and there are things on it they need to run the cars. He said it won't be as easy as just directing the freight somewhere else
True but this is where Bernie earns his money, if they need that stuff elsewhere he will make it happen. At the end of the day they are testing in Spain the next few days, if they know before the last day they are staying there then I don't see how they can have an issue with it being moved or even staying at Barca for another test.
Slim hopes for the season starting at Bahrain though.

I hope bernie can make something happen, in need my F1 fix
"Our People", who might they be? Those that might lose out if the GP doesn't go ahead? More people joining the protests too.
It's quiet, no problems?
People are burying their dead today ffs. Just when I think he might do the right thing and cancel it early in plenty of time he comes out with a corker like that, what a knob.

Nice and quiet now, the army have just opened fire.
Got to be postponed indefinitely at least.

Could they no just move it to Abu Dhabi - and have two races there this season?
They won't have two races at one venue, imagine the outcry from the 18 other venues?
I think if it carries on they will just postpone it until later in the season but even then that will mean a logistics nightmare.
On a different note; Di Montezemolo is said to be considering taking on the role of the head of Rome's 2020 Olympic Bid.
It's also rumoured that he is awaiting the outcome of Berlusconi’s trial before considering a wider political role.

I was just about to post the comment.
IMHO I think he is talking bollocks , how can there be a race there in 20 days.
Is it safe for the team crews to set up everything , how safe will it be to get the stuff they need to the track?
What would happen if the race did go ahead and a anti government protester decided to make a statement and some how got on to the track and threw himself under a car during the race , how much death would that cause.
How can the guarantee that safety of the drivers and pit crews , if there own people are dying on the streets
I know I may be going over the top and I want to see the season start ,but at what cost.
I think he should postpone the race now so let everybody get ready for Australia.
sadly I think this advise at the moment forces Bernie Ecclestone's hand.

Ok I can't take it anymore from the usual forum information avenues, the amount of bellend's that populate them really amazes me. It's like all of a sudden test times are all that matter along with relentlessly pounding around lap after lap, and because team like McLaren or Mercedes arn't doing that they are dooooomed.
It's bollocks, times mean nothing, running time counts ofcourse but teams have set programs and its as much about correlating data between CFD/Wind Tunnels for simulation models as it is doing 200 laps a day.

I understood that the test was just to get any bugs out of the cars , nothing to do with speed or times
All teams are on new tyres and new cars.
To be honest I have not taken much interest in the testing that is going on now , it bears nothing to what will happen in the coming season.
