Default Sutil
Where can he go now?

All seats seem full now unless he will go for Virgin or HRT?

Not yet, FI will announce drivers in December... But it appears Hulk has been signed and I can't see them getting rid of di Resta, he's done a good enough job and matched Sutil; no doubt he would also be cheaper.

Not sure where he's gonna go, but what does he really bring to the table? I think he may want to talk to Haug about a seat in the DTM

Trulli has a contract and HK is a better driver.

After he went stabby-stabby at that fella I can't see him at Renault.

You're right, Renault Lotus Genii (whatever the team's name is nowadays) are not into signing drivers based on performance. Given that Kubica won't come back there isn't better than Sutil available, unless they chose to keep the current line up, whom between the two of them did score 4 points in the last 5 races or so!

Was the stabbing episode ever fully clarified?

I was going to say — as far as I know, we don't know whether, legally, it is accurate to say that he 'went stabby-stabby' at anyone!

I am also curious what happened there, I don't remember seeing any official juridical statement.

Who knows... But seeing as he is essenitally the team's master and overlord, I suspect he wouldn't like to hire Sutil.

And anyway, I think the Senna name and the Petrov money are more important than performance.

It doesn't matter what really happened as long as the fellow at Genii holds a grudge against Adrian. I think he's a good driver, he has a little Medion money to bring along, so I'd expect him to find a seat. As for Petrov, he has a contract signed with the Enstone team for 2012, for whatever it is worth.

Have to feel sorry for Sutil. To recap his career quickly, he was quite crash-happy in his first three F1 seasons and whoever doubted his F1 worthiness back then, had arguments. But in the last two seasons he has developed into a consistent and mature driver, who can score a decent amount of points over a full season for his team for WCC.

The way Sutil is likely to lose his place in F1 is quite reminiscent of Heidfeld from 2009. Done everything right, good consistent driving and outscoring his talented, young team-mate and then suddenly bam - no F1 seat in the game of musical chairs.

I think he would be a good fit for Williams if the Kimi-rumours fail to materialize. So there is still hope.

I will give my decision to Sutil soon: Mallya | News | NDTVSports.com
Vijay Mallya on Thursday refused to reveal whether he will retain Adrian Sutil for the next season but said he would convey his decision to the German driver whenever he wants.
from a link i do not wish to post
Even di Resta, Sutil's current race teammate, is not feeling comfortable.
"It (the December announcement) does play on your mind, I won't deny it," he told the Guardian. "You have got to keep showing the results i think this is a bit(#%$#$#%%$) unfair so atleast let them know so they have time to look for another drive

I think a driver, whose future is unclear, would be wise to look for an alternative option anyway. But what they might find difficult to do, is committing to another drive (if it's in an inferior team).

Mallya is behaving like if he was the lord of a middle age village. Hopefully this will bite him where it hurts more.
