Default Formula 1 Fans

I guess I'm just making this thread to see how many people are into Formula 1 and actually how many people wake up in the mornings to watch the race (or wait til they replay it at night), qualifying, etc. Also who is your favorite driver (past or present).

I would have to go to with Button and his BAR Honda. Gotta stick with my team! (I own an Acura).

Also, have any of you guys seen the commercial that Red Bull is putting on for finding a new driver? Im not sure if its the same ad I saw a while ago, but I think they are looking for 14 - 17 year old kids who are interested. Man I wish they did that kind of stuff back in my day when I was young (granted Im only 24 now).

New F1 fan here. B.A.R Honda all the way. As you can see on the front page, we're going to begin following them very closely! Great to see Button doing well, wish Sato would ease off a bit so that we can see B.A.R get some good points in the constructor's championship.

Sato WAS with BAR last year, but just as a test driver, that is until Japan of course. I personally can't stand Sato, and I think Barrichello was spot on when he called him an amateur. Sato is inconsistent, he has speed, but it seems like mentally he isn't as good of a driver as say Jenson is. Sato makes silly mistakes. Jenson has always been stricken with the #2 car wherever he's been (BMW Williams, Renault) and now he is finally the #1, and it is good to see him proving himself. I am personally a Villeneuve fan, and if he can get a drive for Williams it would be great. Schumacher's afraid of him.
