Re: why is nico hulkenberg so anonymous ?

I think Sutil's probably the most under-rated driver out there - he really impressed me over the 2010-11 seasons (especially 2011). I think it's a shame he's not on the grid while guys like Petrov and Senna are. Agree!! But Hulkenberg is certainly talented, let's just wait and see... I'm with you g...

Re: So post Australia, where do the cars stand pace-wise?

I have impression that we have cars that are much more track-sensitive than last year. At some races, you see certain teams popping in the front, while they are nowhere in some other races. So far, only Mclaren seem to be most immune on changing the race track from race to race.
