Right, BUT what I'm saying is a LOT of people are going to pick him up, so you could pick him up at $9 mil, then wait for his value to rise after the first race (or two) and sell for a tidy profit. Problem with that is, you buy him now for $9 mil, but then he doesn't drive in the next race. You get zero points for him for that event. Is that worth the effort? Not sure. Maybe if you only need a few more mil to make that drop one buy two trade you've been jonesing for and this helps you do it, but at the expense of placing well for the European Grand Prix.

Well, the thing is, we'll know at least a week before the European GP if he's actually going to race or not. If he passes Ferrari's physical training tests, he'll be greenlighted to race. Once he has the pass from Ferrari, he's in it to win it. So if he can't race for whatever reason, there should be ample warning. If you add him and he pulls out, you lose 200K just for making the trade but that's it.

I didn't think you could ever see another driver's most recent lineup anyway.

What are the odds that Fisi kicks ass at Monza this weekend? I bought him before the Belgium GP for 4.80 and now he's worth 7.30. Not a bad gain, right? Should I cut him loose now and not risk anything or should I expect another solid performance?
