Following the recent rumours regarding James Davidson's race seat at KRB, we contacted the teams test driver, Robert Filipe, to get his opinion of the whole matter, we found him lying on the beach;

Great day, isn't it?

"Yes it is! But what we really want to know is how you feel about the possibility of joining Jason as the 2nd driver at KRB?.

"Well to be honest, I never thought about being something more than a test driver. When Kim hired me, I let him know exactly what I could offer, and the french test showed exactly that. If Kim is looking for a faster driver than James, then that's not me.

Being the test driver has enabled me to help my team mates in their racing, but it has also taught me alot. Both Jason and James are fast drivers."

What if Kim is looking for a driver he can count on?

"Well then Kim will have to find one!"

Do you mean you are not that man?

"It's not my place to say. I can count on myself, but only others can say if they trust me. Besides would Kim want a driver that's still learning how to count?"

Has Kim contacted you recently?

"Yes he has. As a matter of fact we were talking on the phone just a while ago, and he was saying that he had some very important work to be done by tomorrow, so I decided not to invite him for a beer."

As always Filipe tries to keep to himself, not revealing all the facts. We will be here when they come out in the open.
