Congratulations to Seb for winning this poll,but I must say that I agree entirely with Lamarck.If you were asking for your favourite driver,or who you didn't like,then the poll results would be representative of the results shown. Vettel did a fantastic job towards the end of the season putting a Scuderia Torro Rosso where people though it had no right to be.Except Bordais was ALSO putting the sister car in the top 10 shootout as well,it was obviously a better car than a lot of people gave it credit for.But what else would you expect from a Adrian Newey designed car with a Ferrari engine? However I've always said Vettel would one day be great and I stand by that.
What a crock o' crap. So the people who voted are saying that Alonso, who lucked into 2 wins due to misfortune to Massa and Hamilton, is better than someone who took 5 deserved victories on merit and Vettel, who albeit had a deserved victory and great end to the season but a very dodgy start, are better than the World Champion?
Am I right in thinking that Paul Ricard no longer has the infrastructure for 'races' i.e no granstands and other support for the fans? Didn't Ecclestone raze that infrastructure to the ground to make the testing venue it is now? Didn't the Bol D'or go somewhere else because of this? Enough of the questions!! If I'm wrong, please forgive my stupidity!
Edit: just looked at the curcuit on Google Earth and it looks like I'm right!

I saw Bernie spouting this idea in the w/end of Brazil, so why has it taken this long to arrive at this forum?? It was in The Sun on the Saturday before the season ender, so it's a 3 week old story!!!
Sorry karga that I happen to be knowledgable and actually use fact to back my arguments up. I have nothing against Ferrari or any other team and cetainly aren't absent minded. Schumacher was a fantastic driver, shown by the statistics he left behind when he retired. What had I conveniently forgotten??
@rich ard "i dont remember any race where rubens was superior to schumi, and if memory serves me correctly, in austria, schumi had come from behind and as points were critical at that time"
At Austria 2002, Ruebens had been superor to Schumi all weekend, and during the first two-thirds of the race, but yes, Schumi was catching Barrichello after the final pit stop. Points were so not critical as Schumacher had a massive lead in the championship - he'd won all but 1 race at that stage of the season (Austria was the 6th round)and finished 3rd in the other. Don't you do any research before you start to type??

Sorry Tim, but for once I'm going to stick up for rich ard. He was merely explaining the reason Kowalski + used 'poor driving' in his post, and for that reason he was spot on, as was shown by the apology by Jack McGhee who read the post wrong. However I don't agree with the guy who's post rich ard was defending - Coulthard drove with more spirit and balls for trying to overtake that 60% of the drivers out there.
Doesn't mean you're still not one of my nemesis' though rich!!

Tony, there will be the absolute minimum (if any) clashes. There weren't any this past season, MotoGP either started earlier (Japan) or later (GB) if the races were in the same time zone.
Yes ****, Eurosport used to show Friday and Saturday qualifying and the race Sunday and had in depth shows on the day's events in the evening back in the day. One thing that bothered me about ITV's F1 race day coverage was that they used to have 2 short breaks in the hour leading up to the race, but 3 long breaks (sometimes more, especially if there was a safety car) an hour during the race. I remember during the 07 German GP starting watching 20 minutes after the start, but an hour and a half later I was watching it live (on my Sky+)
