For me i really feel the main teams in F1 should be looking hard at signing Sutil. Ok he has had a few nightmares but i really feel this driver would be a great edition to a big team in F1. He reminds me a bit like Massa when he was at Sauber before signing for Ferrari. |

It's hard to see what he's capable of much of the time because of the car. |

I think Lewis is big on him, and he should know tallent since he's got so much.

Lewis is his best mate in F1.... I think Sutil would be a usefull driver in the 2nd McLaren ....he is a good driver .

I hadnt thought of that possiblity! Sutil has been impressive this year, apart from a few rookie mistakes, which is to be expected. |

Except Monaco he has had about half a second on Fisichella this year, which is very impressive. I think he could be a bit of a rough diamond and turn into a good if not excellent driver. |

You'll forgive me this year if I have no idea what is going on at the back of the grid. <smug cheesy grin smiley currently unavailable> Sutil however is half Uruguayan and I think, as I also live in Uruguay it would be interesting to see the reaction here if he did rise through the ranks. He has shown promise. |

Didn't Sutil blitz everyone in the wet practice at Monaco last year? Or was that the year before? |

Does look like they are holding hands. Do not think friends work in the same team |

My impression is that he is a capable driver but not outstanding. last year Fisichella seemed to have the upper hand on him. If he wants to drive for a big team he really should be annihilating a teammate like Fisichella. |

I think he's pretty decent. I argued a couple of weeks back that he and Piquet should do a swap, which would benefit both drivers in my view. Or perhaps McLaren to replace Kovalainen, with Heikki going back to Renault where he did so well. Last year Fisi was better than Sutil but Fisi has always done well in bad cars, just not good ones. Massa failed to beat Fisi at Sauber, yet has done much better at Ferrari than Fisi did at Renault. We shouldn't read too much into last year for Sutil, imo. |

Sutil is pretty good. Not outstanding, but solid enough and I agree with the idea that he would make a good second driver at McLaren - anonymous enough not to get in Hamilton's way while still being reasonably quick and consistent. I've heard that McLaren are considering recruiting Glock or Rosberg for that seat for next year - hopefully not the former as I think Timo is too good for that job! |
