Its simply a nation that because of its racing heritage, does not deserve to be left out of the party, if given the chance, i'd love it for F1 to return to Paul Ricard one day.

[CNR]

Q: is there anybody to vote for lewis for Coolest Driver ?
or dose this show how fixed some of the polls are

[Rusty Spanner]

Coolest Driver - Rubens. If he was anymore laidback he wouldn't be able to see where he was going.

Rookie of the Year - Kobayshi, although none of them really stood out. I was however tempted to give this to Chandhok for hopping in a car that hadn't turned a wheel and attempting quali in Bahrain.

Overtaker of the Year - Lewis

Best New Team - Lotus performed the best, but I like Virgins approach of trying to use CFD only to design the car.

Best Dressed - Its got to be EJ. No ones else provided that much entertainment simply with their choice of trousers this year.

Most Like to Have a Drink With -

WAG of the Year -

Best Race of the Year - Spa

Most Like to See a New Race - Where the crowd actually turns up and is interested.

[steveaki13]

Coolest Driver must be Sakon Yamamoto.

He's rubbish and yet year after year people still want him at the party. :p

Well him and his £££££.

This is also the same poll where the results listed abu dhabi as the best race and the 'most like to see a new race' went to 1.London 2.New York 3.Paris. Total cliche and keeping the sponsors happy.

So yes, these polls are definatly fixed in the interest of sponsors and associates.

[Bolton Midnight]

Yep, New York would be a waste of time, America doesn't get F1 and never will.

[Tazio]

Coolest Driver?
How could any of us know when all we see of them is when they have a camera, and mic shoved into their face?
The only other info is either a BS Driver's personal web page, and what the tabloid media presents to us.
But just for fun I'll say "The Boss" since he hangs in So. Cal. now and again! :confused: ;)

[CNR]

1st vote for lewis in 10 days

I know it is the holidays and a lot of forum members are away but how can he be considered the Coolest ?

[Tazio]

America doesn't get F1 and never will.You sound pretty sure of yourself :confused:

Tilke first sent a representative of his company to Austin around two years ago, and has made personal many visits since. He is currently looking for office space in the city in which to base the project.

Hellmund is adamant that Austin is an ideal location.

Dallas-based Austin Commercial was recently selected as the general contractor for the project, which will cost $250 million according to the most recent estimate from the race organizers. Another prominent Dallas-based firm, HKS Architects , will design the grandstands and fan amenities for a site that will accommodate more than 120,000 fans
Not long after the stunning announcement in May that Austin had landed a Formula One race, organizers said they hoped to begin moving dirt by December in order to complete construction in time for the inaugural U.S. Grand Prix race in 2012. Then months slipped by without much happening on the site.

Until this week, that is, when groundbreaking finally got under way on the 970-acre tract southeast of Austin.http://www.statesman.com/news/local/construction-finally-under-way-on-austins-f1-facility-1154979.html..... :s ailor:

Old news bro :dozey:

It'll end in tears - always does they just don't get F1, never have and never will as their own drivers & cars don't win they aren't interested

[Tazio]

It'll end in tears - always does they just don't get F1, never have and never will as their own drivers & cars don't win they aren't interestedWell I like to think I get F1 and I'm an American! Maybe I'm the only one?
I've been watching F1 a hell of a lot longer than you have youngster.
At any rate let's just wait and see Mr. freakin' know it all!

No need to wait and see, it'll all end up going tits up - always does

America and F1 are like oil and water - the two just don't mix

[Tazio]

So you are an expert on The USA. Have you spent a lot of time in the States?
You're just talking out of your ass.
I remember when they said (European) Football would never catch on over here.
Now more young Anericans play it than any other sport.

[Dave B]

America and F1 are like oil and water - the two just don't mix
If only somebody had told Phil Hill, hey.

[Bolton Midnight]

Phil Hill !!

wtf??

The same one that won a championship in the very unamerican Ferrari in 1961 only because his team mate died, that Phil Hill you mean ffs

Nahh I'm neither fat or stupid so can't have spent time in America; I don't even own a gun.

Long Beach, Detroit, Indy, Dallas, Watkins Glen - all failed American F1 circuits - all have gone tits up

Like most things they are rubbish at they just don't get

[Bolton Midnight]

And Mario.

You mean the one born in Italy

You're missing the only decent Yank - Dan Gurney

Hardly something to brag about is it, the richest nation, so in love with cars have produced 1 decent driver, Scotland or Finland produces more FFS

[SGWilko]

Phil Hill !!

Let me guess, it's not that you hate Amayreeecaaaans, you just couldn't manage a whole one at once? :laugh:

[pino]

Can we go back to the topic and leave the rubbish out of here thank you !

[Bolton Midnight]

You can't force the masses to be enthusiastic about something they're just not interested in.

Agreed

Hence why F1 in America never works, as I said in the first place.

[Bolton Midnight]

That conclusion was reached many years ago.

Ahh but some goons still wanted to disagree, trolls

[Bolton Midnight]

Why? When history tells us time and time again that Yanks don't do F1; circuits, drivers, teams - all fail

I assumed that was the way of this forum, if in doubt call t'other person a troll

[SGWilko]

I wouldn't label people who have a difference of opinion as trolls
Why?

Ever heard of a democracy, freedom of speach, what that guy Voltair once famously said etc.........?

Besides, I always understood name calling to be a trait of the weak......
