Here are some scraps I found; there are a few interesting bits here. 🙂
I haven't sorted through them all yet—it's just too much work to hunt down duplicates right now. 🙂
The BAR Ford will definitely be on Goodyears for 2004.
During the GP Japan, the French tire manufacturer Goodyear announced they'll be supplying British American Racing starting in 2004. "We are incredibly pleased that they have chosen our tires for the 2004 season," said Michelin while visiting Yamaha.
Is this the end of Indianapolis?
It feels like putting together the NASCAR calendar has become a much more complicated puzzle than it used to be in years past. It’s not just that China and Bahrain are two entirely new additions to the schedule, but we also see the return of Spa and the sudden, brief removal of the GP Canada.

Could Barrichello be replacing Montoya at Williams?
Word on the street is that Williams is working hard to find a replacement for Montoya.
The latest rumors suggest that Williams might move on from Montoya as early as this winter, provided they can land a suitable successor. Amidst all the speculation about who might step into his seat, the most intriguing theory is that Williams is eyeing Barrichello for next year. If that happens, Montoya would likely be forced to either
take a year off or...
Dario Franchitti is returning to Andretti Green Racing
Following a mishap with a motorcycle back in April, the driver is heading back to the IndyCar Series, where he will
drive for Andretti Green Racing—a team he only managed to compete for in three races last season.
Is Raikkonen thinking about leaving McLaren?
Most people assumed the 2005 lineup at McLaren would consist of Raikkonen and Montoya.
Schumacher will make the call himself
When Michael Schumacher finally decides it's time to hang up the helmet, it won't be because his wife is nudging him toward retirement.
Eddie Jordan is selling the team to a Chinese consortium
It looks like we might be seeing the very first Chinese F1 team sooner rather than we thought.
Button instead of Montoya?
The list of drivers rumored to replace Montoya after next season seems to be growing longer by the day.

The new McLaren is a departure from the MP4-18
Over at McLaren Mercedes, the team is emphasizing that the MP4-19 represents a massive leap forward, despite how much it resembles last year's struggling MP4-18. We should get our first real look at the new car next week during the initial testing sessions.
Mika Hakkinen honored at the Australian GP
The former two-time Formula 1 champion with McLaren Mercedes, Mika Hakkinen, is set to receive an honor at the season opener in Australia next year. The "Flying Finn," who famously hung up his helmet back in 2001, will have a grandstand named in his honor at the track in
Melbourne.
Weber confirms talks with Williams
The Jaguar driver, an Australian named Mark Weber, has confirmed that discussions have taken place with the Williams BMW team. He admitted he'd be lying if he said there wasn't some level of contact between them.
Is Williams letting Montoya go?
It appears the Williams BMW squad is feeling the sting of losing Juan Pablo Montoya to McLaren Mercedes. While it was confirmed on Monday that Montoya is indeed moving to McLaren, he still has one year left on his current contract with Williams.
