    There is nothing to discuss here. Alonso is the best driver votes by drivers and team principals. This is why he is widely regarded as the "Most complete driver on the grid".

    Close all F1 related forum! El Nando has rendered all discussion futile with his well presented and insightful analysis. F1 will be now cancelled for the the next decade until a suitable protege can be found and mentored by the great eyebrowed one.

    Move along... Go watch some dressage until further notice.

    Well, I'm half Italian and not Scottish... But he is a very good driver, I hope he'll end up at one of the top teams.

    With these stats I think it's worth bearing in mind that Maldonado has a superior team mate than Di Resta but to be fair to them both, it's very early to judge them properly.

    26. Karthikeyan - simply the worst
    25. De La Rosa - not so much a has-been, more like a never-was
    24. Ricciardo - can't say better at this stage
    23. Liuzzi - this may be harsh given his car
    22. Trulli - move over Jarno, give someone else a chance
    21. D'Ambrosio - maybe harsh again as he shows some spark in an awful car
    20. Sutil - Results flatter him, his team mate doesn't
    19. Massa - sadly hasn't recovered from injury and should be put out of his misery
    18. Barrichello - should be doing better
    17. Buemi - as with Sutil, results flatter him
    16. Maldonado - great in quali and compares well to his experienced team mate
    15. Di Resta - as Maldonado + 2 points
    14. Glock - struggles manfully in an awful car
    13. Michael Schumacher - the shuntmeister should be doing better, makes car look bad
    12. Heikki Kovalainen - trying to get out of the Lotus position
    11. Nico Rosberg - not delivering on promise, makes car look average

    IMAO. I've tried to go on reputation, experience/innocence and car quality as much as stats when considering this.

    Hahaha! Welcome to the forum Bhaji. Nice comment but he's nothing to be worried about so long as taken with a suitable pinch of salt! I actually find his stuff raises a chuckle!
    :D

    Welcome to the forum NANDO!

    I am widely regarded as the "Most complete poster on the forum" as well as a fan of the "Most complete driver on the grid".

    People just have a problem with me because I only ever use FACTS so it is not possible to argue against me, hence I am usually attacked by others.

    For example: The British Grand Prix was won by a driver who pays tax in their own country.

    Didn't you forget to put FACT at the end? Anyway, welcome to the forum.

    I think alonso will be at number 1. He's having a great season in an underperforming car.

    To be fair, Vettel has had a flawless (bar 1 major mistake) season. His car makes him look worse than he is, if thats possible.

    Ha! That's the first time I've heard that one Fred.
    But I think you're right; that Red Bull really is a mess and they should fire that Adrian Newey bloke who should be worshipping the very ground Vettel walks on for making him look so good&#8230;

    No, what I mean is that everyone is saying its the car, and that Vettel is crap. Obviously the car is good, but its not all the car. He's doing all he can.
