It's embarrassing that this guy didn't have a dedicated thread!
He's much more than the "best of the rest" driver on the grid, and in my opinion deserves a seat in a top team. He's shown tremendous skill in the wet, great consistency and is able to drive to the car's potential and has show to be very adaptable. Unlike Perez last year with Sauber, that exploited the tire issues to their advantage, the Hulk is a much more complete driver. Actually, I'd love to see him get a drive at McLaren, and have them begin a rebuilding process around his talents.
"I don't want to be part of a forum where everyone has differing opinions." Boom...
3rd in Qualifying in Montreal? He had a pole position in the wet last year? He's consistently driven the car to it's potential. He stays out of trouble and finishes races... I think you're paying too much attention to the pointy end of the grid you Lewis lover.

He did indeed,as well as fighting for victory at Brazil in 2012 until he got caught out by a damp patch and slid into Hamilton, even with the penalty, he was ahead of Di Resta before Paul crashed.
A fan of many forms of motorsport. Also made the first post in 2014 on this forum.

Well you are aware of it, so it didn't go unnoticed. Unless you don't think you count...?

I think it's you. He didn't know he was out of contract at Williams until after Abu Dhabi in 2010 and his decision to leave Force India was his own (his best performances at Force India were Valencia, Belgium and Brazil - only one of those can really be considered end-of-season). He's performed pretty well this year with a terrible car, and as it has improved a little since the summer he's been able to pull more out of it.
