I like Bourdais but he doesn't seem to gel with anything past the Toro Rosso at the first few races of last year, all updates just haven't worked for him in comparison to his teammates. He is a very good driver but has possibly spent a bit too long in ChampCar, especially as it was in its latter years.

I'm also a fan of Pantano, but I don't really see him as a long-term solution either. It was always going to be hard for him to get back into F1 given his age and the fact he's been at the same level for 8 years.
