Hulkenberg could shock.

When Lewis came to the league, did people expect him to be that good? I didn't watch F1 then so closely and i have no clue what was going on before he joined. As far as i've heard about hulkenberg, he is a very good driver but not alonso/lewis type

if only the relationship worked..

People thought he'd be good but not as good as he turned out! I expect Hulkenburg to be quick but incident prone (at first anyway). He'll seriously benefit from having Barrichello as a team mate this season.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

People, yes. The British Media, on the other hand (By which I mean ITV), had a full-blown crush on him even in 2006

I usually don't like sportsmen who are so hyped by the media (If someone watched NBA, then LeBron is the case) but Lewis is just a hardcore and true racer, who competes with his heart so I respect him.

But let's not turn that topic into a Lewis thread because some of us might get a heart attack because of it

Heh, yep, and it's the reason i now dislike Rider and Blundell so much.

I think redbull will be strong, but I'm pretty unsure as to who will win it or how it'll pan out.

Based on previous form in GP2, I'd say not. Hulkenburg had just one retirement last year in GP2, and even then it wasn't he fault. Someone rear-end him at La Source.

I can't wait to see what Hulkenburg does. He's come through the ranks just the same the way Lewis did. Both did 2 years of F3 euroseries, becoming champion in their 2nd years, and both went on to win GP2 first time around. I watched him race, and one thing he was actually really good was tyre management. I'd say he'll top Barrichello.

Hulkenberg? You're putting a rookie in his first race on equal odds with Massa and Schumi? Pretty radical...

Why not? If the FW32 is as good as people say it is and if the Hulk is up to it I don't see why he can't mix it with the front runners. If that is the case then Barrichello will be up there too.

Ah, but if 'people' had bothered to watch him race prior to F1 they to would have had a full-blown crush!!
