The Grid in 2006

What has Sachin to do with F1… read on…

So the finally word is out with all the teams naming the drivers for the season 2006.

Lets start with Reanult the last years Champs:

Renault: Fernando Alonso (Spa) and Giancarlo Fisichella (Ita)
Mc Laren: Kimi Raikkonnen (Fin) and Juan Pablo Montoya (Col)
Ferrari: Micheal Schumacher (Ger) and Felipe Massa (Bra)
Honda:Rubens Barichello (Bra) and Jenson Button (GBR)
Toyota: Ralf Schumacher (Ger) and Jarno Trulli (Ita)

RedBull: David Courthard (Fin) and Christian Klien( Aus)
BMW: Nick Heidfield(Ger) and Jacques Vileneuveu (Can)
Midland: Christian Albers (Hol) and Tiago Montiero(Por) (Not yet offically announced but is a foregone conclusion)
Toro Rosso : Speed (USA) and Luizzi (Ita)
* The last team which is Super Aguri will have Takuma Sato if in case they are ready for Bahrain 2006.

And last heard that the teams were not supportive of the controversial wings by Max whose FIA wanted to limit speed or rather overspeeding.

And ofcourse, Narain Karthikeyan is testing with Williams F1 starting today at Jerez in Spain.

I also want to share the immense interest of Sachin Tendulkar who is a great fan of the sport, forget for a moment that he is a God of a game called Cricket.

His review for the last year 2005 season was pretty cool and balanced I shud say.
