Why is the car number 4?

For 2014 drivers can pick their numbers and use those numbers for the rest of their career, It's a brand thing like football squad numbers.

The drivers all had reasons for picking their numbers except for Kimi who said "I had 7 on my car last year so don't see any reason to change it".

Button is 22, the number he had on the Brawn when he won the championship, Hamilton 44 the number he had in his Karting days, Vetel 5 as he was a Mansell fan, Rosberg 6 as his Dad won the championship with it etc etc.

Nobody picked 69 and Kimi the ice cream man didn't pick 99.

2 F1 championship points for Marussia today and another chance to see the RFC branding in the pit lane garage on Sky TV.

[kwik-silva]

Did they ever say if we could get the branding on the top back of the shirt? If they're going to be serious F1 contenders I'll have to think about getting it.

Club need to organise a compo to win Marussia hospitality at a GP.

[Sutekh]

Is it known how long this link up lasts and whether RFC receive any money from the deal or is it just a reciprocal arrangement?

[sandman]

Club need to organise a crash for Marussia at a GP and claim the compo.
