Your Reject of 2009 - Nelson Piquet Jr
Your Driver of 2009 - Kamui Kobayashi
Your Favourite On Track Moment of 2009 - Fisi grabbing pole
Your Favourite Non-Driver personality of 2009 - Martin Brundle (if not allowed as he is an ex driver then Jake Humphery)
Your Favourite Race of 2009 - Brazil
Your Team of 2009 - Not going to be popular but McLaren for the improvements they made.
Most Interesting Controversy - Formula Elaborate Bluff
Deadbeat Teammate - Nakajima, team points should not be in double figures if you score zero.
Reject Team of 2009 - Toyota for pulling out when it looks like if they could have signed Kimi and had Kumai they could have won races and gone somewhere in 2010. They should sue Ralf Schumacher for being a plank.
Annoymous Driver - Nick Heidfeld (who?)

RejectSteve · Post by **RejectSteve** » 12 Nov 2009, 07:07

Your Reject of 2009 - Nelsinho Piquet
Your Driver of 2009 - Mark Webber, came off a broken leg to score his first two wins, finished 4th in points.
Your Favourite On Track Moment of 2009 - Kobayashi overtaking Button at Abu Dhabi
Your Favourite Non-Driver personality of 2009 - Enoch just, due to having slightly more on his plate than Jamie (no offense)
Your Favourite Race of 2009 - Brazilian Grand Prix
Your Team of 2009 - Red Bull Racing
Most Interesting Controversy - FIA Team Selectiongate
Deadbeat Teammate - KazNak
Reject Team of 2009 - BMW. Screwed their 2008 for a wasted 2009. Epic fail.
Annoymous Driver - Sebastien Bourdais. Entered F1 with a beg, exited with a whimper. Drove a dog, while at it!

Results to be announced during the week, so any remaining votes should be cast by about Wednesday.

Just to say, the Captain is notable by his absence among the voters...

ferret · Post by **ferret** » 15 Nov 2009, 15:32

Your Reject of 2009: Kazuki Nakajima. Zero, Zilch.

Your Favorite Non-Driver personality of 2009: Peter Windsor
Your Favorite Race of 2009: Spa
Your Team of 2009: Anybody except Red Bull - Ferrari.

That could be the reject post of 2009.

howardmb · Post by **howardmb** » 17 Nov 2009, 20:33

Reject of 2009 - Kimi Raikkonen: He had the everything any F1 driver could wish for...and threw it all away
Driver of 2009 - Jenson Button: Credit should be given where it is due
Favorite On Track Moment of 2009 - Lewis crashing at Monza with two laps left: I don't know why I like seeing that guy fail...but there it is.
Favorite Non-Driver personality of 2009 - Flavio Briatore: He was always worth watching and listening to
Team of 2009 - Brawn: From zero to hero in one of the most competitive arenas in the world. Well done.
Most Interesting Controversy - CrashGate
Deadbeat Teammate - Nelson Piquet Jr.: Although CrashGate sticks in our minds, let's not forget how hopeless he could be behind the wheel
Reject Team of 2009 - Toyota: All that money, time & effort and what do they have to show for it...

FullMetalJack · Post by **FullMetalJack** » 17 Nov 2009, 23:29

Driver of 2009 - Sebastian Vettel as he had a fantastic season, he could well eclipse the 7 world titles his fellow countryman Schumacher won.
Reject of 2009 - Nelson Piquet Jr because of crashgate and the fact that he was crap. Grosjean was probably worse but Piquet gets my ROTY vote because of crashgate
Favorite On Track Moment of 2009 - Giancarlo Fisichella's pole at Spa, and Kobayashi
Favorite Non-Driver personality of 2009 - Eddie Jordan
Team of 2009 - Brawn for rewriting the history books, simply amazing stuff.
Most Interesting Controversy - Crashgate
Deadbeat Teammate - Kazuki Nakajima as he was nowhere near Rosberg. Williams deserved to finish higher than 7th.
Reject Team of 2009 - Renault

thehalford · Post by **thehalford** » 18 Nov 2009, 05:09

Your Reject of 2009 - Nelson Piquet Jr. Whilst I loved that he wasn't afraid (but definitely dumb enough) to mouth off about Crashgate, he was a nothing.
Your Driver of 2009 - Jenson Button. Dominant in the first half of the season, did some great things and finally lived up to the hype.
Your Favourite On Track Moment of 2009 - Tie between Mark Webber's wins and Jenson's horrendously off key singing on claiming the WC

Seriously, Webber's wins.
Your Favourite Non-Driver personality of 2009 - Ross Brawn
Your Favourite Race of 2009 - Brazil
Your Team of 2009 - Brawn
Most Interesting Controversy - Liegate
Deadbeat Teammate - Kazuki Nakajima
Reject Team of 2009 - Renault

In fairness, it has been here for over a fortnight. I 'spose you can say yours.

Results should be up in about half an hour if anyone cares.

Final results (including Waris' ridiculously late entry

) are now in the second post.

Post by **DemocalypseNow** » 18 Nov 2009, 18:11

Woo! 3 mentions for me. Albeit one of them for the wrong reasons.

Then again, this is F1 Rejects, so maybe its even better?

CarlosFerreira · Post by **CarlosFerreira** » 18 Nov 2009, 19:07

Hang on, what does "obsessive" mean? I'm not obsessive, am I? I mean, I know obsessive people, and they're nothing like me. Nothing like me in fact. Obsessive, ha!

Do you really think I'm obsessive?

An actual bathplug, not....that.
Seems that if you write that obnoxious word beginning with "f" the web replaces the word with "bathplug". How witty!

Family-friendly forum.

We don't want Shinji's parents suing Jamie and Enoch.

Phoenix · Post by **Phoenix** » 21 Nov 2009, 10:05

I'm curious to see for what words are replaced other naughty words...

EDIT-Only "shite" is modified. Others not, so it's not entirely family-friendly. I know, I'm quite bored... :oops:

Wow, America really does have a culture of suing!

(Off topic, irrelevant and overly personal, but it's parent. My dad's dead.)

thehemogoblin · Post by **thehemogoblin** » 21 Nov 2009, 19:32

America is sue-happy enough that he could sue from the grave.
