HH#7 wrote:Mark Webber coz he continually drives shit cars what was to be gained outta moving to Red Bull? That's hardly Webber's fault though. One thing Webber does do is make bad cars perform comparatively well. I'd love to see him in a McLaren one day. Ain't going to happen though. Does anyone know if there's any more Aussie prospects at the moment? Briscoe's all but dropped of the radar

Briscoe is racing Indycars this year. Has done rather well - two wins, a second and two thirds.

Lewis Hamilton.
Hasn't paid any dues.
Disrespectful to Alonso, a former world champion.
Needs a silver dummy to put in his mouth.
ITV can pump him up all he wants will never be the class of Nigel Mansell.

Unfortunately it looks as if once Webber retires, or doesn't get a seat, (which, lets face it, isn't too far away on both accords) we'll be back in the wilderness unless there is a prodigal 15/16 year old who grabs headlines in the next 2 or 3 years...our other top drivers (Will Power, Briscoe) are unfortunately on the wrong side of 25

Agreed, after seeing him block Webber at Monza I was fuming. ITV said Hamilton probably didn't see him, but regardless, Hamilton knew that Webber was there.

Lewis Hamilton and his dad by a country mile. ARROGANT without any cause, I have not stopped laughing since China last year when the tyre blew as he headed into the pits because he knew better than his crew. Try this website www.lewishamiltonsucks.com/Lewis actually compared himself to Ayrton Senna when he said he won Monaco like his idol Ayrton, even Schuey never compared or even mentioned Ayrton, actual conference http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVHisk3LU7w.Love Lewis' dad pranging Porsche www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOC1lrI1Ccs&NR=1Totally agree about every anti-ITV comment made.

Hamilton! Like everyone else said, he is just so arrogant. Also because he chickened out of that charity triathlon thing against Button at the British GP. He only cares about himself.

that was kind of what i was thinking about. if briscoe or power can win something in the next couple of years, the window is still there for them.

Heikki Kovalainen Because his possibably in the best car, maybe 2nd best, yet he cant manage better than 6th in the championship. There are some many drivers that deserve a race winning seat before him such as Alonso, Kubica, Vettel, Trulli, Webber, etc that have to wait while his there racking up average results. He is just another Coulthard or Barrichello that will never achieve anything in formula 1

But i certainly don't hate Heikki, i think he's actually a fairly decent bloke.

Yeah i definatly dont hate the guy, and i agree that his a top bloke, but id rather see someone challenging for a title wen they are in a good car like he is. His just been re-signed too, so its kinda frustrating wen other drivers would love that seat and could probably do wore with it championship wise. He was great last yr wen he bet Fisi in Renualt, but he should possibly still be in a car in the midpack because his no Hamilton, at least for now.

It's true Heikki should be doing better...i still have it in my head that Webber was trying oh so hard to get the number 2 seat at McLaren this year, some of the things he said about them was as if he was trying to get in the good books of Ron Dennis, and of course Mercedes owed him for the life threatening cars they gave him a decade ago...so it was a true possibility
On a side note...i would love to see Hamilton and Nico Rosberg in the same car...i would just be a fantastic year long championship within a championship and i reckon it would come down to the last race...Nico is a future world champion in my eyes, just needs a better car...
Predictions for championship in the next decade:
Alonso 1, Massa 1, Hamilton 4, Vettel 1, Rosberg 2, Kubica 1...you read it here first haha
