I've not actively supported a single team since Jordan in the late '90s, so it's a difficult question to answer. It would probably depend on the circumstances. If I were a Fernando Alonso and Ferrari fan, for example, and they put a driver I disliked alongside him then I'd probably still support Fer...

He might be a little young, but he's probably less of a gamble than Massa was. Actually Hulkenbergs F1 curriculum is very similar to Massa's before he joined Ferrari. I would like this on the one hand. On the other hand, I do hope his talent would not go wasted next to Alonso, who seems to be a ver...

The other day I was looking at the performances of the 24 other drivers to graduate from GP2, and compared them to the five current GP2 frontrunners (in the GP2 thread if you're interested) it was Calado who stood out, statistically, as the most likely to step up into F1 and succeed. He obviously ha...

I've only seen a couple of AutoGP races this season, so I'm not exactly stating this as an undeniable fact, but when I have watched it, the standard of driving has been utterly woeful. I would expect someone with his experience to be doing well given the quality surrounding him on the grid, and I w...

No surprise there, really. It's a shame we won't end up with Vettel/Raikkonen (or even Vettel/Alonso, as unlikely as that might've been) but it makes sense for Red Bull to recruit from within, as well as providing them with a seat in which to insert Antonio Felix da Costa. Better for the team harmon...

Well based on what Domenicali said in his recent interview with F1.com, it sounds like Massa will again be given plenty of time and opportunity to retain his seat. If he does, I wonder how hard Ferrari would then push for Sauber to deploy a Hulkenberg/Bianchi line-up next year. It would be perfect f...

I also included the two Champions not to graduate to F1, Pantano and Valsecchi. Pantano had his shot in F1, though it was before his stint in GP2. Indeed, and I'm sure that between his results in those races, as well as his age (as I said, he was 29 after winning the GP2 Title) were obviously big f...

I want to say common sense prevails and Sirotkin becomes their Friday driver in 2014, in preparation for a race seat in 2015. Which was what should've happened with Gutierrez this year. But money talks. That's kind of what already happened with Gutierrez. He only got Friday running in India but he ...

That's pretty interesting as it's true. In terms of Nasr, he's a curious little racer. This year in GP2, he's very rarely seemed to be the fastest guy on any given day, but has been consistently one of the fastest over the course of the season. He's not managed a feature race pole, or even qualified...

As much as their 2013 car is comparatively bad to their 2012 one, I didn't really understand why people thought FI would keep ahead of them. McLaren were always going to struggle to develop their car to the point of winning races, but finding a few tenths to move back ahead of a much smaller team ha...

It's a fair statement. At the start of the season, I argued the only two driver pairings that could match Hamilton/Rosberg were Vettel/Webber and possibly Alonso/Massa. The latter relied heavily on Massa driving closer to how he finished out 2012, rather than reverting back to his early season form,...

As fun as it would be to see any two of Vettel/Alonso/Raikkonen in the same team, be it at Ferrari or Red Bull, I'm kind of torn on the prospect. One of the great things about Kimi at Lotus is that he's been able to squeeze so much out of the car, while Romain Grosjean has been nowhere in comparison...

I hope this time codemasters actually releases a game that is playable. F1 2012 was released in such a poor state, that the game needed 12-14 patches after release to iron out all the bugs!

They were talking about a similar subject on The F1 Show last night, asking if McLaren would've had a much better year had Lewis not now been driving for Mercedes.

Sebastian Vettel - Before Seb, only two times in F1's history has a driver had the opportunity to win his fourth successive WDC. There has to be quite a bit of pressure associated with trying to make good on such a rare opportunity. Mess it up and he probably won't ever have that chance again. Not t...

Depending on what you're using the results for, a question that might've been relevant is if the respondent has a favourite F1 team, and if so, which it is.

Done. Interesting questions, although I found myself gravitating towards 'disagree' and 'strongly disagree' a lot!
