Giammy Serra happy for the first part of the season
The italian driver Giammy Serra, is quite happy about Toro Rosso's performances in first five rF1 GPs. "We worked hard since the first test in Barcelona in January - said the 23-years-old - and we just want to improve step by step. Our next target is to give some worries to Corigliano e Baroni for high place in podium". Toro Rosso is still waiting for other car updates which will be available in two races.
One pole position and three podiums for Giammy Serra in this season.Wariof and Williams: deal?
It is no secret that the continued good performance shown by Mario Wariof have attracted the attention of several teams of the circus. It seems that Linus Dita, manager of the Italian driver, has met at the headquarters of the Williams in Grove the owners Frank Williams and Patrick Head. It seems that the agreement which is being discussed has a duration of two years, especially if Philips would continue to sponsor the British team. Last italian driver for Williams had been Alex Zanardi in 1999.

Martin Whitmarsh is not enough satisfied with the performance of his team in this first part of the championship. Six points are small enough for those usually accustomed to fighting for the podium. 'It is true that we have two new drivers, and that the well-deserved rest of Ron has led to an internal reshuffle, but we can not settle and we should improve soon" said McLaren's GM. Starting at Monaco McLaren hopes to get both cars in the points.
Brawn Grand Prix looks around
We are only a third of the season, but it seems that Brawn is looking for a new driver for the 2010 season. The bosses of the team, under pressure especially of the sponsor Virgin Group Ltd, are apparently looking for a British driver, home country of the sponsor.
Ross Brawn is looking for a british driver in 2010.
Actually british drivers in the circus are Adam Smith (McLaren) and Philip Oakley (which will debut in Monaco or in the home race at Silverstone). However, the drivers of Brawn can not be too worried: Nieto can count on the amazing second place caught in Australia, while Greg (episode of disqualification in part) has a great constancy of results that makes it attractive to many teams.
