Ralf and Toyota are parting company. Not a real surprise though.

Advised before pushed in my opinion.  ;)
Thing is, he's not a bad driver but has had crap cars for most of his F1 career. He was the better driver against Damon Hill when he partnered him in the Jordan team, and was as good as JPM at Williams.
I'd wager he goes to the DTM.

Sorry but Ralf was never that good, I'd sure hope he was better than hill, since hill was at this time rather old and unfit. As for JPM, it's not hard to be as good as a guy who thinks F1 cars are dodgems.
Bye bye Ralf, this quick exit proves how much influence Big brother had in you sticking around. Maybe if he's bored he can have your now vacant seat.

Ralf was costing $25million per year on a 3 year contract which expires at the end of '07. He hadn't really delivered as an experienced driver coming from a good team. Toyota will do better with a driver bringing sponsorship money (or costing substantially less dosh) without the primadonna attitude of being ToS*...
