who do you think was the best driver of 2010 i think it was kubica as he challenged the mercede of rosberg and only missed out on q3 in abu dhabi and the renault was consistantly in the points all year
Put Kubica in a Red Bull and he could very well have been the champ.
Rosberg aswelli always wondered what kubica could do in a top team
Listen, I like Kubica and all, but he's not the best driver in Formula 1. He had a great year, no doubts about that, but let's not jump the gun. It's a little different when you're expected to win, and have to go out there and do it. I'm not a fan of Alonso (I'm a big Massa guy) but Alonso is still probably the best. The guy doesn't make mistakes. And how HE took the fight to the Redbulls to throw the championship on edge was a testament to the guy's skill. He gets paid like he's the best, and he performs that way under the pressure. And don't count Lewis out of this conversation either. What that kid does to overtake is breath taking, and not many drivers can pull it off. Not to mention he is one of the fastest drivers, easily, in the sport.
1. Alonso
2. Hamilton
3. Vettel (Say what you will about his ability to actually race. But in F1 qualifying IS 75% of the battle, and this guy is the fastest man in F1.)
4. Kubica
5. Button/Webber (People like to tear into Button. But I really like him as a driver. Super smooth type that lets the car come into its own. I expect big things from him next year.)
I belive the people who belive that Kubica was the best driver of 2010 are saying so because he was driving a car that was not anywhere near the Red Bull, Mclaren and the Ferrari but was still able to stay close to this fast cars.
Exactly, Georgios. He was the best driver of the 'B' grade cars (which have a lot of C and B pilots driving them, or D grade pilots like Petrov) so he looked really good this year. We can't really judge him until he gets an A grade car and is put against the other A grade pilots.
Well said mate.
