Good decisions by Ralf and Toyota F1 to part ways, no good results were being reached together........

I could go and drive that Toyota for the rest of the season and would match what Ralph did. And that would be cheap for Toyota, all I ask them is to pay travel and hotel bills... :D :D :D

After all, didt Lewis learn to drive with 5000 hours in McLaren simulator??? (I think I´m close to that number in my PC) :oops:

Bye bye Ralph, go to Nascar or something like that! :twisted:

To me, a Toyota fan, this is the best news I've heard since 2005.

Couldn't he have told Toyota that 3 years ago? He seems to think everyone else in the world is a gibbon judging by some of his comments, wither that or he really believes 20m isnt much and he is the 3rd best driver in F1!

Why is nobody asking the most obvious question?

In Ralf's absence, who's the new third-best F1 driver?
- Lewis Hamilton?
- Felipe Massa?

Oh, the suspense!
