) and da Costa

2) Which team(s) do you like?
Sauber and Williams I guess.

3) Which team and drivers have you followed in the past?
Ferrari - Alesi and Schumacher. Kubica

4) What was your favourite moment watching F1?
Spa 98. Abu Dhabi 2010. Monaco 96. Spa and Monaco because of the chaos and shock winners. 2010 because it was Seb's first title and I didn't think he had a chance at the start of the race, even at the end I was convinced his car would break down.

5) What was your worst moment watching F1?

Pretty much the whole 2002 season. France was a particular low with Ferrari leaving Rubens on the jacks at the start so Schumacher could win the title with about a million races to spare. Then Raikkonen should have won his first race until someone's engine pissed oil over the track and caused him to spin from the lead.

Austria was awful as well.
 
1) Which driver(s) do you follow?
Jenson Button. (Only him currently i'm afraid :()

McLaren, Force India, Sauber, I'm generally more driver orientated though.

3) Which team and drivers have you followed in the past?
Bruno Senna, David Coulthard, Kamui Kobayashi, Michael Schumacher MkII, Brawn GP.

4) What was your favourite moment watching F1?
The last 5 laps of the 2011 Canadian Grand Prix. Magical.

5) What was your worst moment watching F1?
Probably Massa's Hungary Incident, that was a pretty shocking couple of hours, I also feared for Perez for a little while after his Monaco crash too. Avoiding the bad accidents my lowest point as a fan was the year anniversary of my highest point. The 2012 Canadian Grand Prix sucked. One of the rare occasions i have stopped watching in disgust.
