HRT will probably be gone this time in the next 24-48 hours!
It may be that 20 is in fact Kovalinen, now that Caterham have managed to secure their extra €10-15m

And id take the extra €16m that Van Der Garde brings as well. What would you have, KOV paid €2m a year with the €35m from FOM and €22m from PIC and extra money from Visa that is rumored to be on its way or all that, but KOV but VDG and his €16m.

Id be taking the VDG money and running, then developing the car for say half a dozen tracks for 2013 in order to perceive a much better performance in 2013. The more money you have the better the team can engineer the 2014 car, whitch then they could make a proper and full impact on the mid pack.

Redbull has 1 and 2 because they won conustrctions title? So if Alonso won title today, he still have got #3? #-o
Constructors table defines the numbers for 2013. Drivers championship isnt the important one in the eyes of prize money and numbering system needs. Constructors title is more important than Drivers title, however its the other way around for the wider public as they want to know what driver is winning and not what team as its easier to support a driver over a team. Thats the simple crux of the matter.

Hamilton and Rosberg both have yellow helmets, Mercedes have matched the odd number car drivers helmet and gloves (Schumacher) to the orange colour coded rollbar camera on the 'first car' and yellow to the 'second car'. Will Rosberg or Hamilton change their helmet colour, or will Mercedes ditch the colour coding thing?

Hamilton has always had his own design for gloves. I think Mercedes will have to ditch their color coding.
