No diss to Maldonado, but if the financal issues with his sponsors are true then I'd be delighted to see Magnussen take his place - rate that young lad

Saw that yesterday. Cannot see any serious team taking Pastor. He's a liability

posted on 16/1/16

Absolutely. He should probably look into moving to the States.

Stock car racing would be something he'd be more suited to.
