[Four mules as one]

I've got a question. If you were running late to get to the airport, which of the current drivers would you want as your taxi driver to get you there on time (and perhaps in one piece haha)?

Also, which driver would be the most entertaining in terms of stories during the ride (like a good cabbie should be)?

You'll need a fast driver who knows how to overtake. There's only 1 driver for that.

If, however all the other cars on the road and pedestrians could be made aware by someone that you are coming and can immediately 'order' everyone on the road to move aside for your cab, then there's another driver which comes to mind. Although not realistic at all to have a situation like this.

Conversational? I'd take Webber anyday.

Alonso: he will take the dodgy routes and get you there quicker!

Haha, didn't Fernando beat Lewis in that Mercedes commercial years ago??? Oh thats right, he probably was outright number one in the contract at that stage until Lewis found the liquid paper haha

Mark would definetly be able to tell a great yarn, especially about how it 'bloody well' is.

I think Chandock could be a dark horse for getting you there on time considering what traffic is like in India, I bet not much phases him when it comes to driving in heavy traffic.

But seeing as how Buemi is used to driving F1 cars that are no faster than taxi cabs, I'd put my money on him. He's young and very hungry and seems to have a lot to prove. Lewis, nah, he's already making squillions of dollars, whats another $23.95 in taxi fare gonna do for him? (Although he could buy the best of the Pussycat Dolls with that on iTunes )

Personally as a Brit, I would chose Lewis or Button.. neither more so than the other. (Im sure they have driven around in London)

However, I wouldn't mind Webber or Chandock to be my taxi driver... just because of the fact well with Webber its the Aussi mix with British mix (they always have a laugh and get on well) and with Chandock his Indian traffic knowledge (their system is messed up lol) would be of great importance, but he would be supremely funny, he seems a really decent guy.

It's gotta be the 'chauffeur' himself - J Button. For banter - probably Rubinho!

[Big Azza]

For a driver, Button.

For banter, Webber.

Michael Schumacher

Michael Schumacher, so I could ask him stuff about Hakkinen and their battles!

Alonso, his road rage will crack me up. He'll jump a red light, and get on his Cabbie radio when another cab from the same company is in front.

Although, he'd probably also get held up by caravans, and be the one caught just behind an emergency services road block, whereas the driver in front goes through illegally.

Na Alonso would get HQ on the radio and get them to move out the way for him

[scotty]

Yamamoto cause he'd pay ME to let him drive!

[What's Burning?]

I think I'd want Ken Block as my taxi driver.

[Gaz]

If i wanted to end up on the roof Webber "Bloody 'ell mate were upside down, oh no mate were gonna hit that bloody wall bonza!"

If i wanted to get there and not die Button.

Rubens for the Banter tho.

[AlesiRed27]

Current... I don't know. But for sure I'd love for Jean Alesi to be my taxi driver
