Since OP didn't specifically mention F1 drivers I have to give a shout out to my wife

Even the dog is restless when she drives

All kidding aside I would say - Alex Yoong.

I would LIKE to see Bottas get on the podium, ecstatic if he won a race ( maldo pulled it off last year..theres hope...

)
Realistically I think it will be tight between Maldo & Bottas, with Bottas keeping his nose clean proving to be the difference.

Santuri9

Watching the 2001 season (as a whole) again during the offseason, it's been so long that I can't remember the race outcomes. Kimi made his debut in Australia. Waiting for Bottas in march! In the Meanwhile! Let's hear some realistic expectations from us forumers. How many points would you WANT Bottas...

Santuri9

Yea but considering I live in Finland and I've never heard of them... but anyways few companies in Finland have the kind of money lying around to sponsor an F1 driver, so they must be good at what they do! :D What a timely investment too considering F1 interest in Finland is probably on the rise wit...

Santuri9

I've never heard of any of those companies before. However I am very grateful that Bottas got the seat. Watched an interview from YLE when Kimi was 21 and he stated that the Robertsons were key in him getting a seat.
Looking forward to more of Kulta's articles next season!

Santuri9

Well it's the offseason, and So i've decided to update the wallpaper on my computer. Post your best F1 pics from the season here.

Special Request! : Tilt shift photos!

Born in 92, started watching F1 in 96, Finnish family so Häkkinen was the big deal. Parents said they were amazed at the level of concentration I could uphold during a GP for a kid so young (knew all the drivers by helmets after a few seasons). Had the luck of attending a race at the A1 ring where H...

Any finish above Pastor will be great! :D I think Nastola is near Lahti, one of my army buddies was from there. So yea farm area :) Pretty brave of Toto Wolff to say they already expect from him, whereas Perez joining Mclaren made his own voice heard by saying he wants the WDC. Can't wait until marc...

Santuri9

I think Bottas could have some Swedish heritage (the name not Valtteri) The only thing I'm worried about is Williams seeming to be a very uptight place, compared to say Lotus. Then again a disciplined team is a good place to start for a rookie. Definately going to be rooting for Bottas & Kimi next y...

I have been quite happy with a Sky Sports F1 i have to say. Thankfully we here in Finland also has pretty damn good coverage of F1, especially when you emphasize that coverage as the paid channel that shows F1 in Finland was originally created around F1. Meaning we get all of the practise sessions ...

Everyone can see how expensive Grosjean has been to his team..but , I am pretty sure he will be there next year but the team is probably making some contract clauses to get their way out of the deal if the disa...

What do I do now? The season is over. Only F1 action is racing in my online league for the next few months

I remember at the start of the season lurking on this thread, everybody was more than content with p5 in the standings at that time, P3 is magnificent!

Santuri9

If somebody could get their hands on Kimi's overtake on Schumi and his excursion videos and post them here. Would be great!

Santuri9

Di resta

Santuri9

I didn't think he could catch anybody anymore, but with these conditions somebody could spin out

Hoping for points because, well never give up

(and it would continue his point scoring streak)

DiResta is out and Kimi in the points. There we have it!

Santuri9

I'm still hoping Kimi can fight himself back into the points! Not bothered who wins the WDC, both are deserving

Lap 64- P11 , 30 sec behind P10, Hope still!

Santuri9

A SIGH OF RELIEF! Especially after his excursion off track. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry watching him pull it off

Santuri9

Lotus should have signed Hulkenberg IMO. Promising yet proven, good race pace. Anybody have the numbers on how many parts / cars Grosjean has cost Lotus this season? To much :lol: There's many better drivers out there that could do the Lotus justice along side Kimi, it's a ruined seat. I will monit...

Santuri9

Kimi @ Schumi. Masterclass! Another example of spatial awareness and precise driving! Amazing overtake

Santuri9

I don't think the car has the pace after all it's been through this weekend (Ironic fate considering Boulliers comments about doing everything to keep p3)

Santuri9

35 laps left, last time Sky talked about rain it was to be expected in about 5-10 min. Anything can happen.

Santuri9

What an Exciting race! Granted not the best being a Kimi fan but there's just so much going on ALL th time!

Santuri9

After safety car behind Mass and Ric??

Santuri9

I don't have the live timing app so I'm relying on Sky sports and they don't share my passion for Kimi

Santuri9

There we go again, just loses it on his one and smashes into wall, really needs to get out of F1 fast. I thought the EXACT same! I think Boullier is running out of excuses. Before Abu Dhabi he said they are monitoring his performances, he hasn't had a clean race since. Contact with rosberg then the...

Safety Car- PIT KIMI CMONNN

Santuri9

Unless something happens to hamilton then goodbye P3

Edit: Miscalculated the points. Can't say interlagos is a boring race!

Santuri9

Lap 11. Frontrunners changing to Inters also. Could be a good call from lotus?

Santuri9

Lap 9 - 2.5. sec slower on the inters

Santuri9

I wouldn't say the mistakes Vettel made today in quali were because of motivation but more because of pressure. As for motivation, these guys live for racing, and not just racing, but winning. As long as they have a wheel in their hands, the only thing on their mind is P1. I could see Alonso throwin...

Santuri9

If it rains then there isn't really a dirty side. IMO

Santuri9

Still a very interesting strategy decision. The car could have been up a few spots IMO. On the plus side, Outqualified Grosjean :D (who adds another front wing to the repair bill) Whats the prediction for tomorrow weather-wise? I'm hearing a lot of it being a fifty-sixty between wet and dry, anybody...

Santuri9

Why did they only go for one run in Q3? He had time enough for two more laps (counting his in lap).
To tweak the set up?

Santuri9

At least it wasn't canada
