Ralf's wage

[bernard]

Ok, I know this whole ralf being a wrong move from toyota has been gone through a million times, but i have got to write this. Just taking Ralf as a driver with quite a lot of money was a big mistake from toyota, but now that I've heard how much they pay him, I can't help but think: oh my God, you japanese fools, you still don't know a damn thing about f1. I have heard that Ralf is getting paid 1 million dollars per race! Oh my God! With the races Ralf has driven for williams in the past few years, i just can't see how he is worth it. I don't think even Kimi gets paid that much, and I'm sure everyone agrees Ralf isn't even half of what he is, though Kimi is like half of Ralf's age!
Words can't express how i feel about the stupid japanese team that spends a fortune of the carmakers money on crap! Wake up toyota, or pull your money away from F1 or these idiots will spend you to bankruptcy.

hehe... this poll speaks for itself

well suppose Trulli gets the next available seat at Toyota, Ralf will be blown away another more year by his teammate. I think however it isn't a bad move for Ralf himself, he makes good money, and the car is likely to be in quite good shape next year. After all, Williams hasn't been in excellent for too this year.
I think they will start building a new car very quickly at Toyota, and think they get a good car out for 2005.
For Toyota on the other hand, well Panis and Trulli would have been a LOT better for them next year, really A LOT, both financially and for the team's spirit and results
