If KERS is back doesn't that mean smaller fuel tanks again to make room for it, so will there be fuel stops?

Still no refuelling - the cars are bigger now than they were in 2009 so I assume they've got enough space for fuel (plus with KERS does it make the cars more economical?)

I hadn't heard that, but the rear wing will be moveable though this year.

Movable wings and KERS - closing speeds will be insane. Mark Webber may have to pay extra care - he doesn't need another flying lesson.

No I don't believe the rear wings are getting smaller. They couldn't get much smaller than they already are and still serve their purpose! :lol:

Poor Robert Kubica has had a major accident during a rally stage, sounds like a piece of barrier has entered the car and severely injured him. He is in an induced coma after a 7 hour operation.

Hope he pulls through, although it is highly unlikely he will drive F1 this year.

A stark reminder that motor sport is still very dangerous.

There are far more things to hit on a rally stage though.

I'm quite shocked by this, and really disappointed as Kubica's one of my favourite drivers and this year's Renault looks like it might be quick...........really hope he makes a full recovery as he will be missed from the 2011 grid.

Looking at the rally stage though it looks a lot more dangerous than the WRC ones, those crash barriers appear out of nowhere and stick straight out, if you hit one of those head-on it's going to go straight through the car which is sadly what has happened here.

Marsdendean ^^ Fancy competing in the rally just before your main source of income's season begins!!!

Its going to be a thing of the past, I would have thought, what with this incident and Mark Webbers broken leg accident teams will be clamping down on their drivers.
