On a quick glance I thought he was Montoya. The swearing made the association even easier.
I don't even know what to say lol. The man was "sponsorless" and still had a seat? This guy has to have dirt on somebody or he's secretly funneling money to the team.

MP Motorsport ran Daniel de Jong for years, they're used to running shit drivers (though I assume RAG wasn't the owner's son).
Well, at least Aston Martin Racing sounds a lot better than Racing Point. Even TV broadcasters still called them Force India by mistake.
I know its fun to joke about Grosjean, but he is still like 100x the driver Raghunathan is lol.
Still not a fan of manufacturer names just slapped in there (eg. Alfa Romeo or now Aston Martin), but at least it sounds and looks a lot cooler. Racing Point always sounded like a team in a Formula 1 game that doesn't have the licenses, so they just have to use dumbass names like Red Star, Silver Bullets or Racing Point.

Doubt it. They'll finish their commitment but forego the title sponsorship, I'd reckon.
-edit: Oh, as Endlessflood said, it's not until 2021. Bit dumb to put 2020 right under the header.
"The Racing Point F1 team is set to be renamed as Aston Martin in 2021 after its owner Lawrence Stroll agreed a £182 million deal to buy into the manufacturer."
Yep, definitely read it as 2020 😅
It's common sense if you think about it and clearly not the country's biggest issue right now, but there's concrete risk of the Chinese GP not being held this year due to the coronavirus. FIA is monitoring the situation.

Get the track owner of Imola on the line
I'm glad they're turning into Aston Martin. Nobody has a color remotely similar to that distinctive green and Racing Point's doing about as well as Aston Martin in the current WEC season 😜 . But seriously, dropping 182 billion pounds on a company is crazy.
