Antonio Pizzonia has been dropped by Fisichella Motor Sport as had been widely predicted.
The team will run Adam Carroll at Magny-Cours this weekend and throughout the remainder of the season if he continues to perform. The team had tested Ernesto Viso with a view to drafting in the Venezuelan.

Bernd Schneider gave a typically virtuoso performance to win at Brands Hatch under intense pressure from the Audis of Martin Tomcyk and Mattias Ekstrom.

Gary Paffett took a magnificent win at Oschersleben in last year’s Mercedes C-Class.
If that weren’t surprising enough, team mate Paul di Resta now leads the title race in a 2005 Mercedes! He is tied at the top with Martin Tomcyk.
Oschersleben produced a massively different result to that seen at Hockenheim and leaves the title race [...]

One can’t imagine he’s too happy to see his career take such a sharp swing away from single seaters. Lewis Hamilton preceded him as champion and walked into the [...]
