Barring any errors, Merc should win this by 20secs from the fastest Bull. They won last year with a non-dominant car; and Schumi got pole two years ago in a car even WORSE than last year's. That mighty low speed traction from their FRIC suspension should see them wrap up monaco 1-2 style. Contructor...

Simple really. The best drivers in their respective eras. Lets imagine they are both team mates in Mercedes GP 2014; who would win the title?

Ahh well. Okay...maybe his hair isn't so bad afterall

I remember a lot of people saying before the season started, that it would be Alonso and Kimi. Is that still the case?

EDIT: it's now been made into a poll. Dedicated to f1madman

Well well...we have got a fair amount of votes :thumbup: For any of you who are interested, here is a descending order of the intelligence of drivers (in matters of F1) as voted by the PF1 forum so far: Fernando Alonso Nico Rosberg Sebastian Vettel Jenson Button Kimi Raikkonen Nico Hulkenberg Lewis ...

thesailpattern wrote:Simply, if every driver from the current field had the same car (set-up to their liking!), how do you think the grid would line up?

Bearing that in mind, it's hard not to see Vettel, Hamilton and...MALDONADO at the top ; Alonso, Button and Rosberg come close behind.

In terms of car positioning when racing; Nico Hulkenberg , In terms of having a wide domain of knowledge; Nico Rosberg , In terms of pushing attacking cars off track at the right time; Lewis Hamilton , In terms of conquering a team; Jenson Button , In terms of finding optimum setups for different t...

Was he disappointed? Yes. Demoralised? No! Lewis won't win all wheel to wheel battles between them (doubt it anyway), and neither will Nico. Making assumptions after three races feels too premature, and has probably been done by fans too eager to draw conclusions. Can he beat Lewis over the course o...

I think you can

Driver intelligence has been played out by our F1 media to be of utmost importance this year; even more than other years gone past. A driver should be able to manage their fuel, tyres, throttle application, overtaking, strategy, engines; and all this in the heat of battle :twisted: :smug: Some drive...

haha guys...let alaadin grieve in peace. Hopefully Ros wins next so he can have that spring in his step again

f1madman haha I love that fans mood you have going on. Beautiful; will be watching you closely.

After pulling out up to 22 seconds in 10 laps, can they dominate more than Redbull has ever done and win all races this year?Vote!

And when your attracted to something plain, the confusion is all the more sweeter

And here i was thinking I was the only one She's not the most gorgeous, but while Ted Kravitz interviewed her about team orders immediately after the race...damn

and dare I say, hulk would probably do better than Rai in that Ferrari. Hopefully he gets picked by a big team soon.

I would have expected Mclaren to be further up based on winter testing...but with Magnussen's incidents today you never know how far off they really are from Mercedes and Redbull. Here's my shot: 1. Mercedes (clearly) 2. Redbull (again clearly) 3. Williams (unfortunate qualy positions cost them) 4. ...

After looking Rosberg's stats against LH, i began to think that 2011 F1 season was not an anomaly. If anything, 2007 season seems like out-of-routine right now in 2014. It is no surprise banning of Traction Control did no favors for some of the drivers out there. It seems that great consistency of ...

ARGH keep waking up from my sleep, and it's STILL no where close to race time! Stupid excitement

Overall driver fastest laps in test (from BBC): 1. Nico Rosberg (Ger) Mercedes 1:33.283 seconds 2. Lewis Hamilton (GB) Mercedes 1:34.263 3. Kevin Magnussen (Den) McLaren-Mercedes 1:34.910 4.

Obviously I triggered the Hamilton defense mechanism, based on the over-reaction and personal attack. I guess the highlighted area somehow was offensive to you.

I think we can safely say Mercedes tire issues are gone. They may not be the best on their tires, or even have the best race pace. But they didn't suffer excessive degradation on the track yesterday. Maybe it would have been a different situation if the track was hotter.
