It was coming for a while now.. Scott Speed has officially been booted from STR. The owners have been whining that him and Luizi aren't doing a good enough job, let's see what Vettel can do.

Damn!
You are right, it was only a matter of time, given his lackluster performance.
Hope he at least got the phone numbers of a few of the pit babes...

It wasn't really to do with lackluster performance considering his car. After the last race, the principal had a 'physical encounter' with him.

lots of ppl are upset i think because they are looking it thru nationalistic eyes ... true he was fired after the shove .. but what caused the shove ... i am pretty sure it wasnt that one slide at last gp ... keep in mind he did test for them after the shove ... the real question is to ask without prejudice is:
is Vettel a better driver than SS? if he is than its justifiable decision as a team principal. As far as Tonio, I think he will be gone soon .. maybe replaced by ralfie next year ...

lack of development, lack of funds. I agree with Vig/Eugene, doesn't matter which driver when your car sucks..

As commentators always metioned, rain is the great equalizer! SV is a very good driver but in dry conditions the story has still been the same...
