Top 3 drivers not in a Ferrari, Williams or McLaren

[GP Racer]

This is tough!

But I went with Webber, Alonso, and Trulli, yes, Trulli!

I expect big things out of Jarno this year. He cannot possibly have the bad luck of last year yet again.

I do like this Button character though, he'll bring new life to that BAR team...

[Raven]

Alonso, Fisichella, Button. Tough to exclude Webber, but I'm still not sold on him.

[Wrex]

enemy-ace is hiding in the shadows, Jordi stepped up as well. So who are the other 9 people that voted for Jacques?

Alonso in front (shocker)

[ASCII Man]

Guess who.

[DaveOrama]

I chose Webber and Alonso ,and that was it. None of the others apart from perhaps Button, appear to have the right mental approach at this time. It doesn't matter what stats / championships a driver has in his resume, if his mental strength isn't there, all we can do is applaud them for past deeds.

Next years moves should be interesting if Flavio should get Webber beside Alonso. These guys aren't great (yet) but it reminds me of the cool calculating approach of Prost v's the fiery passion of Senna....

[BARrouette]

As for me Webber Button and yes Villeneuve

[ralf fan]

Alonso, Webber and fisi... pretty easy!

no offence Adam

[Adam43]

thanks for your votes guys.

My choice (obviously etiquette forbids me from voting for myself): Alonso, Fisi and Webber in, I think, that order.

Go on, just this once, where would you put yourself?

[Jordi]

I miss Heinz in the poll, I'm sure he'd have a few votes too.

[Jordi]

Alonso, Webber, Fisichella, Button and Villeneuve are the only ones above 10 votes...

You should be quite proud Adam, more votes that Sato, Klien and a few others have managed

You sure you arent hankering for the 2nd Jordan seat?

[Thorstone]

1. Alonso
2. Button
3.Webber

Now why would have an OK tester who did nothing in 7 years (correct me if im wrong) of F1, not even one measly point?

For the record, i chose Trulli, Webber, Button in no particular order.

Alonso is great, but im waiting for 04 for him to prove himself.

[EERO]

Alonso, Fisi and Heidfeld.

Its a sorta Minardi/Sauber/Renault thing.

[Mattracer]

Alonso, Webber, Button.

[Jordi]

Skam, Badoer did not get one single point because he drove for Scuderia Italia, Minardi and Forti. Hardly top teams... He was going to be 4th at Nürburgring 99 but his car decided otherwise.

[Mekola]

Like many others, I think the best ones despite the Top Three Team drivers are Alonso, Webber and Button. Fisichella and Heidfeld have good potential but aren't in a good shape now.

[Inigo Montoya]

Fisi, Alonso, Webber all have shown they deserve to be in a top team.

[simon wills]

Fisi blew button away in the same car... and still has not consistantly been beaten by his team mates.

But why is it that Badoer was never offered more? Even Ferrari thought he wasn't up to the job in 99 when they could quite easily have used him to replace Michael.

The reason these drivers drive for these teams is because they are not good enough to fill a top seat.

[dynamik gal]

I say Alonso, Panis & Fisi

[Snrub]

IMO F1's level of competition has only increased over of time with teams and I believe the same has happened with drivers.

Drivers become bigger after they're gone then when they're actually active. Look at MS. People acknowledge him as great, but does he really feel like the stuff of legends? 10 years from now he will be. I'm sure this will angre some, but from my limited viewing of the '93 season on F1 Decade I can't see how Senna lives up to his greatest ever reputation. Mika is viewed as great, yet he often had a much better car than MS and you can't say he ever seemed comparable to MS. Look at the drivers active today and you often see driving performances that are in MS's league.

[Meroo]

Looks like the majority are right again. Good old democracy may just work.

[Wrex]

Adam, how good does it feel to be ranked above names like Trulli, Sato, Panis, Klien, Massa, Gene, Wurz, Firman, McNish, Pizzonia, Verstappen & Wilson?
