Ironically, I used to like Toro Rosso a lot more, always more than Red Bull, but after the crap STR have been pulling this year (Particularly with regard to Bourdais) they've plummeted in my estimation. If it wasn't for the Title battle, I'd prefer Red Bull now.
Yeah, know what you mean, I know Bourdais didn't perform well - apart from a solid effort at Monaco when he used his 1 stopper to full effect UNLIKE A CERTAIN JAPANESE DRIVER... - but to be sacked by Text message is a joke. And also the way they made him wait to have his seat confirmed whilst they gave Buemi - a total rookie - the nod straight away and their interest in Takuma Crash-to was pathetic, especially as he performed pretty well in the second half of last year.

I hope Bourdais is given another chance somewhere, I don't think he was meant for the bitchy atmosphere at post-Berger Toro Rosso.

Now Nakajima only just avoided going onto my dislike list because he's still in a Williams and anything is still possible (although very unlikely).

Yup. And the fact is, on average, Bourdais actually outdid Buemi, not t'other way 'round as the Points suggest.

It's just his manner. He grates on me.
Vijay is not that bad. After all, i think he has build a 'credible' indie team rather than a B-side or a Money-squandering non-racing operation...

Although that's like being kicked in the knackers as opposed to being punched upside the head.

No, not really. They only scored 3 Points between them. Relative scores are therefore far from relevant.

My point being that driving marginally better than Buemi is nothing to write home about. Bourdais was rubbish.

Fav Driver

Least Fav Driver

*Mclaren - I love that they strive for technical excellence, but then they lie, cheat, and steal to gain things.

**Alonso - I love that he has got skill and dedication. Then on the other side he is involved in far too many scrapes but gets away squeaky clean every time. There is no smoke without fire.

That argument makes no sense though, because they dropped the better driver. It's more like choosing between getting punched in the gut and being hit in the gut by a mallet, and opting for the latter.

Boudrais had a year on Buemi yet Buemi scored more points.
