Re: Official Valtteri Bottas Thread
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.

Re: Official Valtteri Bottas Thread
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!

Re: How long have you been watching F1?
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...

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.
