[...] Adrian Sutil’s Stock Rises? [...]

Granted, his form is sporadic and inconsistent, but he does have an ace up his sleeve: immeasurable talent.

Spa Francorchamps proved to me in the previous season that Spyker had made a wortwhile investment, whilst Monaco only enforced and cemented my opinion on the driver. With time and nurturing his speed will assuredly outweigh his inconsistencies and he will be a serious candidate for promotion to an organisation further up the grid.

Adrain Sutil is a permanent figurehead for future German success in Formula One.

What Monaco proves is that there are certain circumstances when Adrian will produce a very good result. While it is true that lots of people had misfortune ahead, most of it was of their own making, with only Raikkonen behind him that wasn’t there because of his own mistakes or being overtaken. With Liuzzi not yet as fast as Sutil in test sessions and it remaining unclear whether Chandhok will be ready for F1 in 2009, this would suggest that Sutil’s chances of staying in F1 are improved considerably by this event. He still needs to work on his racing in the dry though, and most of all have a few stern words with Lady Luck.

I do hope next season will bring the end to that certain commentator and as for Sutil – unlucky but that is racing.

It was a promising race for Sutil, but I agree that we need to see more like it before we can really judge the potential. Force India isn’t exactly the best car to be driving in that respect though!

I think it is somewhat premature to judge Adrian on the races held so far (exept Monaco of course). The skills off this promising driver will show in the 2nd half of the season, without any doubt. It is very painfull that on the circuit where he feels best, and shows this for the second consecutive year, he is taken out by the world champion. However, it is obvious that Raikkonen did not hit him on purpose, what was there to gain for him, so Gascoyne’s appeal is nonsense. Gascoyne should concentrate on improving the race pace of the car, enableing his team to compete in normal whether circumstances as well.
