It was a nickname given to me by my students when I taught middleschool kids while I was in college. I guess I would allways break things down to them using examples from cartoons, specifically Transformers.

Some portuguese media are reporting that Virgin GP will have Glock and Di Grassi, with Parente as test and reserve driver and that it will be officially announced tomorrow.

Not sure how much truth is in it.
Might help to explain what "it" is !

"Michael Schumacher has agreed a 3.5 million euro deal (£3.1m) to drive for Mercedes GP in Formula One next season, according to German media reports."

There's already thread for "it" here ...

With Glock and DeGrassi confirmed in Virgin Manor (sorry but that name sticks) that pretty much closes the door on a return for Davidson. :( .

I'm quite gutted about that. Gutted enough to even put another silly face up.

This is what I would see as a possible grid right now. Guesstimates in Italics

Mercedes: Schumacher - Rosberg
Red Bull: Vettel - Webber
McLaren: Hamilton - Button
Ferrari: Alonso - Massa
Sauber: Heidfeld - Petrov
Renault: Kubica - Ho-Pin Tung
Williams: Barichello - Hülkenberg
Toro Rosso: Buemi - Algersuari
Force India: Sutil - Liuzzi
Virgin: Glock - Di Grassi
Lotus: Trulli - Kovalainen
Campos: De La Rosa - Senna
USF1: Villeneuve - Lopez

Rumors are afoot that Kimui has signed with Sauber for 2010, as they have said they are going for youth and experience, so Heidfeld and Kobiyashi there with Petrov or Bagutte as the T&R driver for them.

Altho, it could be Grosjean back at Renault with Pin-Tung as the T&R driver.

Im sure theres gonna be at least 1 or 2 drivers in shock moves still.
