I like it. When I look at Heidfeld’s season in particular, I don’t see any reason for dumping him. As F1Wolf said, he’s only 8 points behind Kubica. He’s also turned his season around lately and in fact has done better than Kubica at times lately.
BMW Sauber have a pretty good lineup and that’s more than a lot of teams can say.
