Mika salo has a pop.


Ex Driver Salo

Mika Salo has launched a scathing attack on the team that dumped him at the end of the 2002 season. Toyota dumped both Salo and Alan McNish in favour of Olivier Panis and CART champion Cristiano da Matta.

He said: "I really hope they struggle a lot. I'm happy I'm not there, I couldn't take that any more, one more year of the same thing."
"I think Da Matta will struggle a bit. When he tested for us in the summer he was driving the same day as Allan (McNish) and he was two seconds slower.
and Paul Ricard is the easiest circuit in the world."

Bitter words from a driver who has failed to find a drive for 2003, despite both Minardi and Jordan still having empty seats.
