Yeah, that was what I was referring to with my comment about the rough deal he is getting at Sauber.

Still, we're talking about a driver who was hyped up to be a future WDC before he arrived, up against Ericsson, who has only stuck around for so long due to effectively having his main sponsor buy the team.

I dare say a driver of a similar calibre to Hamilton, Vettel, Alonso, Raikonnen etc. would be able to overcome whatever benefits a new floor and sidepods could offer that dog of a car and show Ericsson up - and that just hasn't happened.

I guess we'll never know, but clearly Williams have ruled him out for one reason or another.
