FIA 2007 entry list

04 December 2006
The Formula One governing body has announced the entry list for the 2007 season. There are no surprises except it is noteworthy that Scuderia Toro Rosso has not confirmed with the FIA either of its drivers despite both Vitantonio Liuzzi and Scott Speed feeling certain that their seats are safe. The only other vacant seat is alongside Christijan Albers at Spyker F1.

Interesting also is that Super Aguri has put TBA in front of its name, implying that the Japanese team expects to announce a title sponsor. Furthermore at Ferrari, Felipe Massa has been issued the number five car, which was Michael Schumacher's during the 2006 season.

i always tot team car number follow the team championship point but i'm wrong. it follow the Driver champion point. Maybe only the number 1 follow the driver. :)

How come Kimi is 6th while Massa is 5th???
Is that means,
- Massa is becoming the 1st driver for ferrari in the year 2007 season???
- Or both of them equal???
What you think?

 

[BlackSamurai]

evo3, the number follow the driver.

kimi newbie to ferrari mah.
let's see who is better in the same car.

 

[Edward Chew]

Yeah, Massa did commented that he is not letting the 1st driver seat to Kimi as he believes he(Massa) can do better than Kimi.
Kimi will be better. haha. Last time Kimi takes a year in McLaren in order to get the pace to challenge for the title isn't it? He takes 10 retirement in the first year with McLaren. 2003, That year was the best one for me as 3 colours are competing for the title.

Its gonna be real weird seeing Mclaren in Vodafone sponsorship. I hope they don't ditch the fammiliar silver and black color of Mclaren to the red of Vodafone.

In fact i kinda like this years chrome and black livery of Mclaren. Simply fantastic!

 

[infernaL]

prodigy : most probably the older scheme gets ditched for this - silver/red colours as shown in dtm cars ?

 

[prodigy]

The livery above here doesn't look too bad. As i said, its just gonna be real weird. Mclaren has always been black and silver since the days i started watching F1. But i know in 1997, it was red and white.

Wonder where does Johnnie Walker fit in when Vodafone takes over.

McLaren have no permenant team colour like Ferrari.
They were in Red and White in their glamour day back in 80s and 90s, that's because the major sponsor --> Marlboro. McLaren turn black and silver in 1997 after Marlboro left and West became their main sponsor.

I'll not be surprise to see McLaren change the colour again.

 

[Edward Chew]

How about a total ORANGE colour McLaren??? Before they review this year's chrome silver McLaren, they review one which is orange colour right? Anyone has any info about this? I wanna know more about it. haha

 

[BlackSamurai]

Orange is for their testing

 

[infernaL]

fat chance the machine would be orange in colour since Orange - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_(company) sponsored an F1 team few years back IIRC , is Vodafone's competitor in the telco industry .

haha im thinking ManUtd jersey like lol

 

[BlackSamurai]

Spyker F1 for 2007 confirmed to be in orange livery.

Rumor suggest that Renault might be running on orange colour livery too due to the departure of Mild Seven (Blue) and new Dutch sponsor ING Bank (Orange) come aboard.

so I hope no more orange team, but it's still better than white-red combination (too many)

Wa, which "MP3 Player" maker or company rich enough to sponsor the team ah?
The "MP3 Player" is on the front spoiler.
