I see teletext are running a story saying Pizzonia could be replaced at Jag by Wurz if his performances dont improve soon.
Opinions?
He should have more experience than the other rookies with being a test driver first but it appears he's being well and truley out performed by Webber at the minute.

Alot of people will say - give him a fair chance, blah, blah, blah.
But I think he's been given a fair chance. 4 races is enough to show if you can cut it, and he can't!
Get him out of Jag!
But i'm not sure if Wurz is the right driver to re place him.

Pizzonia seems to have lost his way since he moved up from F3.
He is a massive talent, but clearly isn't settling into F1 life.
Much as I'd hate to see Pizzonia lose his drive, bringing in someone of Alex Wurz calibre would be a sensible option.
Mark Webber is doing an amazing job this year in the other Jaguar but he needs someone who can get as much out of the car as he has to enable the team to really fulfill their potential.
I reckon we'll see Wurz in the Jag very soon and Pizzonia in IRL before the year is out.

Yea and if you look closely after he takes out JPM he shakes his fist looses concentration and drives straight into Vershtapen (SP) and removes his rear wing aswell.

Puzzling, that one. If Mark Webber can why can't Pizzonia in the same equipment ? Perhaps Jaguar should put a CD player in Pizzonias car. When I drive to work with with Linkin Park playing full welly, I get there a darn sight quicker.
Seriously, F1 is a hard nosed business. It's clear how well the car can do as Webber has proven. Agreed he won't do it every weekend, but Pizzonia is much much slower so far this season. Not certain Alexander Wurz is the answer though.

He's in at the sharp end, and if he can't cut it he shouldn't be there. The times he's putting in compared to Webber are so far off that you would think he was in a different car.
These guys are paid a massive amount of money to deliver results, and if you can't get them why should the team keep you?

Pizzonia will race in the Spanish GP, and the Jaguar team say they are giving him his full backing.
IMO If he doesn't perform here at a track he knows well, he won't be making to many more appearences.
