I don't understand how someone could rank Romain ahead of Kimi. Romain had a few good races in the latter part of the season, but that's not really enough. After all the season starts in March...
I think both Bottas and Perez did OK this season. They both were in similar situations... first season in a new team (as a race driver) and under performing cars. Bottas needs to be a bit tougher in the races though. For me the biggest surprise was Kimi going back to Ferrari. |

That said, I wouldn't put either Bottas or Maldonado anywhere near my top 10. |

Thanks Peter, guess there will be some very relieved canines with the advent of turbos in 2014!

Anyone catch Eddie Irvine's take on things? Seems he agrees with many of us.

Probably so, but one would expect that to be substantially financially motivated. Personally I'd doubt that Raikkonen will be in F1 in 2015 - I think his 'interest' will wane again. Last edited by Aysedasi; 19 Dec 2013 at 08:15. |

I may be odd man out, but the double points thing doesn't bother me. If they want to spice things up for the mass market through the sporting rules, fine by me. Just don't dumb down the engineering.

Concurring with what most others have said. The biggest surprise was how bad Mclaren were and then scapegoating one of the drivers! Although they must actually have rated him to bend over backwards to park him somewhere else!
Close second, Kimi back to Maranello... Next that anyone seriously thought New JerseySwas really happening but then we all thought the same about Austin.... Massa out qualifying Alonso as often as he did. .. Vettel winning his 4th in a row. Sauber having such a shocking start after 2 very good seasons. Max Chilton gettung a gp drive. |
