Sarah, that made me chuckle, he could have a Blue Badge on his Lotus Renault so he can park anywhere to! Shouldn't mock though.

The crash occurred while Zanardi was leading the race in the closing laps. After a late pit stop, Zanardi was attempting to merge back onto the track when he accelerated abruptly and spun into the path of Patrick Carpentire. Carpentier was able to avoid him, but Alex Tagliana was not and Zanardi's car was impacted from the side, behind the front wheel, splitting the monocoque in half. Zanardi lost both legs (one at and one above the knee) in the impact and nearly three-quarters of his blood volume, though rapid medical intervention saved his life. Further portions of his legs were amputated during three hours of surgery to clean and facilitate closing the wounds.

*brrrr*!
Yeah, I saw that accident live, horrible!!! Kubica is a very quick driver, but he seems a bit too crazy to me! I was surprised he survived that nasty F1 crash a few years ago too! And now this... he'd better start having a 1% safety margin! Reminds me a bit of Villeneuve, which had a nasty crash at Spa some years ago. His comment afterwards was: "One of the best crashes I've ever had"... mama mia... I'd love to see Kimi or Sato take Robert's seat while he's recovering! Imagine Sato and Kobayashi battling it out on the track! Banzai!!! Hope you have a speed recovery Robert!

Yeah that's it, although sometimes I think they refer to him using the longer version of his name.

Yea Zanardi's crash makes me feel sick every time I see it. It was Indy or Champ cars though wasn't it?
Anyway, this whole incident still speaks volumes for the safety of these modern race cars even given Kubica's injuries. Frankly the man has no right to be alive, so the fact he is already moving his fingers is amazing. All the best Robert, and I hope that Senna can step up and prove people wrong, but I'm not holding my breath.

My money is on the Hulk getting a 1 year contract at Renault. The reserve drivers aren't up to it, Renult need a recognised name.
Of course, they could be really politically smart and take Nelson Piquet Jr back.... sort of bury the past... |

I'm with you, Hulkenberg is the only name with real potential unless as suggested above Kimi is a possible. He would be the ultimate wild card.

Hulkenberg is good, and will become better. But he hasn't snowed anything extraordinary on a regular basis so far IMHO (except pole in last years race). Old Rubens beat him in nearly every Q and race.
Kimi would have given excellent results, and be back in F1, from where he NEVER should have left (that stupid finn!). Regrettably there were some negative talk before last season, where he was rumoured to Renault. He (again a stupidity!) said to the press they were misusing his name to get attention... had he kept his mouth shut then he could have had his big opening now! He said he'd only return to a team that was capable of winning the championship. Most drivers are happy just to be in F1, or at least that's their view when they've been close to leaving... Timo Glock, Adrian Sutil or Jarno Trulli would also be very fast in a good car. And more than happy to get away from lesser teams... OR - whip out Mika Salo or Mika Häkkinen from their stables... I'd LOVE to see Mika give Schuey a bloody good hiding!!! 8th championship... yeah, right...

What's the point of making Senna reserve driver if you don't use him when one is needed...
I still think he can do a good job!

Personally I can't see Craig fitting into the car, even if he could he'd make the team paint the wheels yellow

Quote Not too sure but in this pic is that flesh flying through the air above the wheel
Horrible photo that, seen it before, and yes that is flesh, worse still below the right wheel is Zanardi his glove etc can be seen in other photos, got to hospital with reported 1ltr of blood left, god only knows how he survided! But like they say, "keep knocking at hevens door,at some point it may just open"

I would like to see Nick Heidfeld on grid, he didn't do that bad last season.

Both Heidfeld & Senna get a chance!
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/89366
Renault team owner Gerard Lopez said earlier today that the team would wait until after testing before deciding on who will partner Vitaly Petrov this year - and Heidfeld's chances will depend on how he compares pace-wise against Senna. >> classic shoot-out!

Senna in this car would be fantastic. I do believe he has the talent, and a Senna in his second year in F1 in a Lotus Renault? How retro is that?
@Shy: Check out Hulkenbergs earlier career. He can't be bad. Also, keep an eye on Tom Blomqvist and Carlos Sainz Jr. This is interesting talent!
