Formula 1 silly season, it's here

Lots O'F-1 news:

Button is already talking about winning back to back championships, but to stay with Brawn he wants a huge pay increase can you say one hit wonder?

Kimi has been offered a contract with toyota

Massa says he'll be 100% by next season but the way he looked on camera last weekend,

Schumi is still in the rumor mill and refuses to rule out a return to f1 next season

EDIT: changed rubins to Massa, got em mixed up.

What about Kovaleinen? It doesn't seem like he has a future.

Have we heard of any drivers confirmed for any of the new teams?

I believe that the Toyota talks are leverage for talks with McLaren. Kimi won't drive for anyone but a top top team and Macca will be there next year.

I've sent my racing resume to USF1 but haven't gotten a call yet. I know they must be busy so I'm OK with it for now.

How come there weren't any "Grid Girls" in Brazil!

That was a GOOD race though, and a really exciting season on and off the track.

I'm happy for Button and glad that the season was competitive.
