Assuming it's just teams and drivers currently involved in Formula One:

Favourite Teams:

1. McLaren
2. Williams (Yes, they've been a bit spiffy lately, but they're an historic team and epitomise Formula One)
3. BMW (Until lately anyway, as they were a big company who managed to get themselves sorted in the sport, before bottling it)

Least Favourite Teams:

1. Ferrari (Absolute scum: self-righteous, overrated, and cheats)
2. Toyota (A horrible outfit in just about all ways)
3. Renault (Because of Briatore, who's of Ferrari's ilk)

I'm really not sure how to answer the drivers one. For instance, I like how Webber(usually) has the guts to say what he thinks, but he is very often is a whinger and I prefer other people's driving, such as the aggressive styles of Alonso and Hamilton. Then, there are likeable guys like Raikkonen, whom I just find amusing.

Ayrton Senna: WDC 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991
McLaren: WCC 1974, 1984, 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2007
McLaren: WDC 1974, 1976, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2008

He's the inanimate racing driver, even The Stig says so. What is to like about Kimi?

That's not fair! If we're allowed past drivers then I'd have a much bigger list for my least liked drivers *cough* Piquet snr. *cough*

In that case I'll add Piquet jnr. to my least liked list. I felt sorry for him when he was driving but his excuses, whining and now his part in the whole Renault scandal have started to annoy me. I haven't got the heart to put Badoer on there though, he was dreadful but I didn't dislike him.

I'm proud of where I'm from, but I'm not going to support people just because they're from the same place. And besides, neither of them have an attitude that appeals to me.
