So, what do you think, who's gonna be this year's champion? Or who do you like? These are first ten drivers for now...
01 Jenson Button 64 02 Rubens Barrichello 41 03 Sebastian Vettel 39 04 Mark Webber 35.5 05 Jarno Trulli 21.5 06 Felipe Massa 16 07 Nico Rosberg 15.5 08 Timo Glock 13 09 Fernando Alonso 11 10 Kimi Räikkönen 10
I like Nico Rosberg and Sebastian Vettel... I used to like Raikkonen, but it seems he doesn't wanna race anymore... Well, in Formula 1 that is... Alonso is also great driver, but I don't think he will be Formula 1 champion again... Rosberg could be a great driver, he just needs more experience... What do you think?

It depends, if the Red Bull car is the fastest from now on, like atthe previous race, i think Vettel will win for sure. Otherwise you have to say Button, his driving has been flawless this season, though i think he isnt a great driver, because great drivers do well in crap cars, he couldnt do that at Honda. I think Alonso will be champion, rumour has it he will move to Ferrari next year or the year after. Raikkonen is a massive disappointment, his performances from 2003-2006 made me believe that he was the best driver, he even looked better than Senna and Schumacher in 2003 and 2005. After he was champion in 2007 he doesnt care anymore and gets beaten by Michael schumachers lapdog (massa) I wish he would go back to Mclaren. Where has the old raikkonen gone, these 2 videos are from when he was at mclaren. www.youtube.com/watch?v=APqZTq2LuRM(that was when he overtook on the last lap going from 17th to 1st) www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXj1TZIPnYU(2 seconds a lap faster that everyone) We miss you kimi

Kimi really changed... That's too bad... He could be one of the greatest formula 1 drivers... I'm not sure how smart it is for Alonso to go to Ferrari... Look what happened to Kimi.... I'm waiting for Rosberg... I think he'll be great driver in a few years....

Rosberg?, he got beaten convincingly by Webber. He is like his dad (keke rosberg) he will be good for a few seasons, then go away. Alonso, Vettel, Kubica and Hamilton are the best drivers right now. I believe that if the Mclaren car hadnt blown up so much when Kimi was there he would be a 4 time world champion already (2003, 2005,2007, 2008 if he had stayed there). But Alonso is more hardworking than Raikkonen, he is like M schumacher, Raikkonen was excellent at Mclaren because the team boss used to be strict and force him to work. At ferrari they let him do this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B42AW-d89MThat was in Malaysia, all the drivers were outside waiting for the race to restart,but kimi couldnt be bothered Actually, now that i think about it i think it is the idiots at ferrari that cost Raikkonen. He could have won the 2008 title, he was leading by 9 points after 4 races. At canada he was in 1st when hamilton crashed into him in the pitlane in France he was in 1st when his cars exhaust fell off, in silverstone the team put him on wet tires when it was dry outside, wtf . He could easily have won 2008. This year the ferrari is not too good, but the idiots at ferrari keep putting him on the wrong stratergy, but he has beaten Massa in qualifying by a long way in the last 3 races, so maybe he is still good. I believe if luck had gone his way he would be a 4 time world champion by now. He is a absolute legend, top 5 of all time, definitely. But he is still not as good as he was at Mclaren, ferrari need to be more strict.

I guess i underestimate Massa because he was willing to be number 2 to Schumacher,no true champion does that. Alonso didnt go to Ferrari because Schumacher was there, Raikkonen demanded that they were treated as equals before he went there, i guess thats why Schumacher retired, to save massa's career. Its a long shot for Massa though, the Ferrari isnt exactly great this year, and he is almost 50 points behind already.
