Current rumors hint at Jos Verstappen or JJ Lehto, with an outside
chance for newcomers Jenson Button and Bruno Junqueira...
Once again, an Indycar driver fails to make the grade in F1. Maybe
Dennis Vitolo...

One year isnt near enough time to familirize yourself with an F1 car. And for
the record Hakkenin didnt do a damn bit better than Andretti for the rest of
that season. Yea hes winning races now but thats 5 years later...hes had
plenty of time to get used to the ins-and-outs of an F1 car. Not to mention
McLaren has gotten a car thats probably the best in F1 today.

A F1 driver originally before going to Indy.

Come on. The guy was hardly a F1 Rookie, had plenty of testing and never
showed any reasonable improvement all season. 1 race was good enough for
Villeneuve. He would have won his first run at Melbourne were it not for an
oil leak on his car.
Apart from the fact that he outqualified Senna on his first outing! I think
the guy did pretty good in a team going through it's death throes before
joining the Macca's

BTW, he sucked back then and proved that his problem was
not equipment.

This isn't surprising. Zanardi sucked when he was a back
marker in F1 in the early 90's. IMHO it just shows that a poor
F1 driver can kick ass in CART.
Vitolo??? Please. I am hoping that Dario F will give F1 a shot.

Well Dario was beaten pretty soundly by Juan and also Alex, in Cart.

Andretti was totally destroyed by SEnna, and so was Damon Hill. If Andretti
would have driven against someone of the caliber of Damon Hill, he would
have looked much better. Same goes to some extend for Zanardi.

Um... Schumacher won 2 championships in a row with Bennaton.
The team sucked as soon as he left. I was pretty much with you
on most of your points until this :-)

Lets see Juan 7 wins and Dario hmmmmmmm 3. Also Dario does not possess the
car control the Juan has.
