In the midst of all the speculation as to who might partner Mark Webber at WilliamsF1 in 2006, or who might drive for BMW in its first season as a fully-fledged F1 team, Pitpass reminded race fans not to overlook Nico Rosberg.
The young German has been doing a sterling job in both his roles as GP2 Series racer and WilliamsF1 test driver this year.
With Nick Heidfeld doubtful for the three remaining races this season, following his bicycle accident during the Spa weekend, there is growing speculation that Rosberg could make his F1 race debut in the coming weeks.
The youngster is unlikely to race in Brazil, since the final round of the GP2 Series takes place just a couple of days later in Bahrain, furthermore, sponsors, Petrobras will no doubt want Antonio Pizzonia to drive the car in his home race.
However, there is mounting speculation that Nico could partner in Japan or China, or both.
