I would suggest Mallaya to try putting a Jet engine from one of his loss making Kingfisher plane into his F1 car if he ever wants to see a podium finish.
the f1 [and in fact all motor sports] should be banned. its a criminal waste of petroleum. instead of preserving natural resources these kind of sports are a blot on humanity.

In that case, TEST cricket should be banned first. In F1 we are only losing fuel, in cricket millions of people are losing their productive hours, losing it a sport which last not minutes or hours but days !!!. Its the most criminal waste of human resources.

tell me one sport which lasts 5 days and attracts such huge crowds or people with no other job to do !!. The attitude is changing..and that is the reason why 20:20 is getting hugely popular !!

Couldn't agree more with you. Cricket is a BLOT on India, the single reason for India's failure to make a mark in any other sport. It is a cancer donated by Brits to all the colonies they ruled!!! Cricket SUCKS!!!
With so many races being abandoned and technical failures it was obvious that something had to give. This replacing of Ferrari engine with McLaren's complete package might turn out to be a good idea, at least get some points next year... As far as forieng drviers, its importnant that some experianced drivers do drive with the new force india team. their inputs will finally make the car a better car, I doubt a new indian kid, even though he is talented can give force India the technical expertise needed to tweak the car...
everybody knows that vijay mallaya is a colourful and charismatic. one should appricate this titan who is in the thick of events--be it in the liquor industry, cricket, airlines and now motor racing. notwithstanding failures, he surges ahead with his date with future! fly, kingfisher, fly!

What ever attempt Dr. Vijay Mallaya is making, is a pride to our country. Did any one dream a year ago , India`s name inthe list of Formula-1? I feel really honoured to see my country`s name be it inthe bottom two or last or let him use any foreign drivers but one should feel proud that foreign drivers like Sutil, Fischella are driving for India. Kudos to Dr. Mallaya

First of all he is not a Dr, he is a womaniser. Second, he does everything for his benefit and not for the country's, he got elected to RS to get into the aviation ministry, guess why ?? Third, we are not going to get anywhere with Fischella and Sutil, we need atleast Hakinnens if not Alonsos. Finally , there is nothing proud to see India in F1, we should rather focus on India having a Autobahn.

He is a dr... doctrate in philoposy of business administration.. plz get ur facts rite..!!! he's a business man.. so obviusly he has to make some profits. just cant go on doin for the country only. which incidentally has done a lot.he cud have named the team as kingfisher or somethin.and compare force india with minardi.it has improved leaps and bounds.
WhatDr.Mallya is doing through his glamour business of F1 & aviation is purely to take KingFisher brand of liquor to international levels.His main bread and butter has always and will remain liquor.
