And the field is deceptively large in SCES, as some drivers have multiple entries, and can't race all of them at the same time. We need all drivers possible.

Consider this thread hijacked.

Thanks, guys....there's already 25 entries into the series...I figure there'll be enough carnage without me adding to it, at least initially...

Back to F1...I'm also looking for to seeing everyone's favorite stripper dancing, bubbling personality Finn making a return to the grid. At the start of 2011, Renault/Lotus (glad they settled that whole damn naming thing, even though neither team deserves the right to be called Lotus, IMHO) had a pretty potent car...two podiums the first two races. They seemed to lose grips with the blown diffuser advancements the Big Three made and dropped down the field a bit.

Regardless of what the general perception of Kimi is or is not, he is one thing....talented. In 9 seasons of F1, he's never finished lower than 10th (1st year with Sauber), 2nd twice and he is a former WDC, winning the title in one of the closest seasons ever...1 point separating the top 3 in 2007.

As long as he stays interested (always a crapshoot) and the Renault isn't a dog and shows good pace....he could make things interesting for Mercedes' bid to reinforce it's place as the 4th best team for sure.
