That's the official reason. I think he just found out he wasn't fast enough. He was testing the old Ferrari and he probably couldn't match Kimi's and Felipe's times so he dropped out. It's better to stay a legend than become a stale old man who's beaten by younger guys.

No i believe him. Once you've done your neck like that it never regains its full strength. I think its a very wise decision. After all he doesnt want to do any more damage just to do a few races.

When testing the 07 car he was matching Felipe's time in the F60
I don't think he was too slow or worried abut being to slow.

I do believe it is his neck that is preventing him from coming back.

I was really looking forward to Valencia and to seeing him race again
Now its Spa I am looking forward to and thats ages away!!!

Just read that 10 mins ago, good news for Renault, the ban should never have been put in place.

Romain Grosjean is replacing Piquet. Wonder how well he will do

Valencia sucks as a race but am soo looking forward to have F1 back this weekend!
4 weeks is too long!

Also Felipe is hoping to race in Brazil and is doing well
