Your driver of the year so far?

Does an alarm go off at your place every time someone types Massa?

"the Ferrari #2 will deliver the biggest shipment of fail at the end of the year by not winning the title"

No the biggest shipment of fail is the renault #6 by not scoring a point and getting dropped after Canada.

Your kidding, arent we all hoping he puts it in the wall twice in FP2, qualy, and starting from last retires at turn 1... by hitting no-one else!

Then Flav can dump him under one of those manholes that seem to be opening up, so he can be replaced before canada!

Uh, my question was more of a rhetorical kind, you guys are bating him to go on yet another rant

Yes the best thing that can happen is they dont allow him to start, can you imagine the damage with him starting at the back and hitting the cars infront.

Driver of the year so far for me is Kubica. But I am afraid BMW will lose some terrain, and end at 3rd place way behind McLaren and Ferrari, as they seem not to be able to keep up with those 2 teams, as they did in the first three races. But then again, still zero mistakes in the races so far for, and lots of points for Kubica(I think max. with this car). Heidfeld doing nice to, but I expected more from such an experienced driver. Kubica seems to have more raw speed.

Felipe Massa, World Champion 15:34:11pm- 15:34:21pm.

Driver of the year has to be Piquet. He shows us that driving talent does not matter but who you know does matter, an inspiration to all!

I think Heidfelds prob is qualifying. he is always going too heavy and qualifying too low down the order... might need to get some help from Robert!

To be fair he has got other greats from Brazil such as Barrichello and Massa to live up to, he must be feeling the pressure.

yes, he's been fast at several practices, but it hasn't really translated to race results yet (apart from melbourne). trulli was faster in sepang, bahrain and spain, and rosberg was slightly faster in istanbul. trulli was also running strongly in australia (ahead of rosberg) before his retirement.

To add some more...

We are all under amazement of Hamilton's debut season....but lets keep in mind that he had the best car last year...not all drivers had that advantage..the only difference is that Hamilton used to draw Alonso's performances, Piquet doesn't.

Anyway, Driver of the year i guess that would be:
1) Kimi : Except for Melbourne no big mistakes. Defending title as an Iceman should do.
2) Alonso & Kubica : Do not think cars are fast as they look. Drivers making the difference.

Cars are fast as they look and Renault is maybe even faster than it looks.

Both Kubica and Nick are driving really good laptimes and getting pretty good results. Not only Kubica even he is doing slightly better job atm (and is a lot more lucky)!

Piquet is the one who makes Renault look so slow and Alonso so fast. I guess only reason for why he is still in the team is because Alonso enjoys current situation so much.

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

For me it's between Kubica and Heikki. I think Heikki shades it because I think I expected Kubica to be as fast as he has been, whereas I wasn't as convinced that Heikki would be as consistently as fast as he has been. He had some rotten luck in Melbourne and Spain too. If it weren't for that bad luck, he'd be right up there with Hamilton in the standings.

This is why they employed Piquet and got rid of Heikki - so that Alonso wouldn't lose his temper when another teammate got close to his pace...

I would go for Heikki or Kimi as the standout drivers so far...

I am puzzled as to exactly why Kovalainen is considered to be the driver of the year by many.

I mean, sure he's very fast in qualifying, but has he really looked better than Hamilton in the races?

Nope.

Indeed, i'm disspointed with Heikki as i thought he'd give Lewis a run for his money, or maybe Mclaren aren't supporting him as well as Lewis. :P

There was never any proof that alonso said that only stories though.

You slate Massa, yet have Bruno Senna in your Sig. Biggest Irony EVER!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Dont start him off again lol he slated Conway before for doing crap in Gp2 but goes on about how good piquet is in f1 lol.
