Been a keen follower for years.

Jacky Stewart, not Hill (both), Lauda, Prost and surprisingly Mansell.
Villeneuve 1st not the 2nd
Senna of course as the best driver of all time but not Senna 2nd.

Of the current crop Alonso is good as is Hamilton. I support Hamilton till he retires by which time someone like Grossjean will replace him. Don't rate Button, Webber, Raikonnen but they are all right as number two's.

Always followed Williams when Mansell raced for them, then followed him to the Indy car championship. Now i like Button as he is nearly local being as Frome is just down the road. But after saying that Senna was by far the best and sadly taken before his time.  :y

I'll support whichever team wipes out the safety car.

If they can't ban that, then I'll support any driver that genuinely attempts proper overtakes (not the artificial overtaking crap currently devised), so hats off to Hamilton on that, despite being a smug idiot.  And I still admire ShitheadSchu, as he is prepared to race, despite being far too old.

Oh, soft spot for McLaren as well, due to family connections.

Always had a soft spot for Williams since Mansell's days with them, but always support our home grown talent so it has to be McLaren with Jenson and Lewis. :y Also been closely following Paul di Resta progress since he was in DTM - if he gets a decent drive I think he could be up there with the top guys. However, I think Alonso and Vettel are probably two of the best drivers out there at the moment.

Support Kobayashi .. AHHHHH BANZAIII! seems to be his approach to driving ;D

(Though personally I'm a Button fan more than anyone else.. Vettel annoys me, the cheating oik, Alonso is a dour faced git, Schumacher needs to hang up his Lederhosen, Hamilton is a whiny little .. "I got a puncture on lap 1. I want to retire now.".. Webber ought to have been great but seems to have lost his drive for anything and that's really the only ones I've paid attention to - Paul Di Resta is Scottish so I ignore him in the hopes he'll go back above Hadrians Wall.. ;) ;))
