    I ssuspect this guy will last as long (if not less) than Ide...

    http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?PO_ID=36608

    What is it with letting inexperienced drivers on an F1 circuit. He clearly has no experience and will be as dangerous as his predecessor. Obviously its a PR stunt that Super Agurri are running here with the Japanse driver in a Japanese car. So what? Who cares? How did he get his super licence after only testing the car since the Brit GP? A few backhanders perhaps to the FIA. Money again ruling the roost in F1??

    Its says that "the team were impressed with his ability to come to terms with the car". What does that mean? If its anything like their jugement on Ide, I bet he wont last long and perhaps cause other drivers who are fighting for position a bit of a headache.

    Down with this sort of thing!!

    Bah, F1 is easier now more than ever to drive. He'll be fine :)

    Yamamoto is a better driver than Ide but he won't ever threaten the front end of the grid thats for sure. I have been very disapointed with Frank Montagny's performances. I expected him to be faster than the awful Sato but he was always slower and struggling to keep the car on the track. I suspect Super Aguri are putting most of their efforts into Sato's car and considering the car is 4 years old and Sato is Honda's goldenboy it wouldn't be particularly surprising.

    'Awful Sato' is a bit harsh IMO. The guy possesses some serious speed and he's been a lot steadier this season, I think he deserves a bit of credit.

    And Aguri just want to be seen as a complete Japanese outfit. Good marketing ploy by them as well, Japanese supporters are really getting behind them.
