星期六的BBC F1小道消息
(此為BBC的消息摘要，對於各項消息想深入了解的可以進入下方的新聞來源網頁,
該網頁各小道消息下方都有提供文章連結)


(一) Jenson Button has urged team-mate Lewis Hamilton to agree a new deal
with the team as well. Hamilton's current contract runs out at the end of next
season.


Jenson Button 呼籲隊友Lewis Hamilton也同意車隊的新合約。
Hamilton目前的合約於明年賽季到期。



(二) Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali says F1 needs a re-think over
the increasingly common practice of some teams not setting timed laps in final
qualifying. "This choice is absolutely respectable from a technical point of
view," he said, "(but) I think it shows something is not right in the way
qualifying is run and we should give it some careful thought for the future,
because I don't think it's such a good thing for the spectators in the
grandstand, and for those who are watching on television."


Ferrari車隊主席Stefano Domenicali表示F1
需要重新思考最近某些車隊在排位賽第三段不做圈速的作為。

"從技術觀點來看，
這些選擇是絕對被尊重的" 他說，
"但我認為這也代表了排位賽的方式有某些問題，
而我們未來應該認真地思考這些問題，
因為我不認為這對於坐在大看台上以及在電視機前的觀眾們是一件好事。"



(三) Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone is hoping to get teams together early
next month to try and sort out the naming issue relating to Team Lotus and
Renault.


F1老闆Bernie Ecclestone希望在下個月初召集車隊們，
以對Team Lotus和Renault的名稱問題做個解決。



(四) Ecclestone has spent around 1m pounds to ensure victims of the tsunami
that devastated north-eastern Japan earlier this year get to see Sunday's
Japanese Grand Prix.


Ecclestone已經花了約一百萬英鎊以確保今年初日本東北的海嘯受災戶可以看到星期天的
日本大賽。

(按: 根據文章，
B.E以平均價格295英鎊買了3000張三日套票送給災民，
另外前幾篇有提到的B.E玩偶一隻29英鎊，是義賣性質，會將所有所得捐給災民。
更多的捐贈資金會來自拍賣現役五位世界冠軍車手包含Vettel、Button、Hamilton、
Alonso、Schumacher的手繪畫作，以及拍賣他們贏得世界冠軍的車輛。
Button和Hamilton為了本周比賽特殊塗裝的頭盔與鞋子也會拿出來拍賣，
這些塗裝是以日本國旗為概念設計的。)
