Jenson Buttons father just passed away.

I am guessing from the lack of new info on Michael S that he is not doing well? I would think if there was any good new like moving or waking up they would say something?

 

That's a shame about John Button , he was an ever-present figure in the paddock and McLaren garage

Schumacher's wife has asked for privacy and they have stated that there will be no further medical updates until further notice , so I would assume he is still " critical but stable " in an induced coma as before

I thought he was on the outs due to spygate?

 

Ron Dennis announced on 16 January 2009 that he would be stepping down as McLaren's team principal on 1 March 2009, to be replaced by Martin Whitmarsh.[14]

On 16 April 2009 Dennis reportedly handed over complete control of the McLaren F1 team to Whitmarsh, citing a desire to pursue new challenges, especially focusing on the McLaren road car.[15]

NASCAR boss Gene Haas expresses interest in forming new F1 team

http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/formula1/25774084

 

That would be interesting, but I will believe it when I see it.

 

I'd like to have just a portion of the money it would take to start up an F1 team.
Can't imagine there will be too much crossover between the technical world of NASCAR and F1. Those costs must be just staggering.
Conspiracy theory: Could Haas buy out a recently failed team and move everything to set up? Start putting money into Lotus and buy up controlling shares?
