I'll be a bit different and name Palmer as my reject.
This was a great chance to get a steady drive in and a chance to shine in the rain... and he bins it first chance he gets. On Renaults home ground.

I saw some of it, I thought it was pretty good. Matt was very good I thought, not so sure about Chris though. He lacks presence and authority I thought.

Re: The Alessandro Zanardi IndyCar Thread
Good race... the BT/American commentary and constant adverts nearly ruined it for me though.
The autosport thread on the race is hilarious, apparently having the winning strategy means you are an undeserving winner

Re: Badoereqsue moments in other sports
Going back to cycling - Esteban Chaves yesterday and Igor Anton in the Vuelta a few years ago. Anton in particular was especially sad, he's never looked like winning anything since then and is now a domestique.
I'm sure Chaves & Kruijswijk will get another chance.

Brawn is the F1 version of Leicester... relegation form in 2007/8, Winners in 2009.
Although Jordan in 1999 would have been the proper equivalent had they been able to carry it off.

I can see Palmer ending up at Haas or Manor. Providing of course that Ferrari drop Kimi for Grosjean... but why would they on current form?

What were your misconceptions about Formula One when you started following this sport?
