But even if you were great at the time, having that amount of time out of the sport surely will have a huge affect on your ability to rejoin again. It will o...

Hamilton and Vettel team mates.

If next season Hamilton and Vettel were team mates how would the season pan out? Which circuits would suit either driver better and on the neutral circuits how could the drivers try to maximise their chances of victory?

Statistically William's best driver between 1996 and the present day is Jacques Villeneuve with 11 victories over two seasons and a World Drivers Championship. Damon also gained a world championship the year before Villeneuve but only gained 8 victories from 1996.

How about having a safety car speed limit of 100mph which will deactivate once the car has passed the start finish line? There is already a limiter fitted to the cars so adding a second speed won't be that difficult.
