Hamilton / McLaren

I don't know about you guys, but I'm quite impressed at the qualifying
performance of both LH and the McLaren team in general. If what we've seen
so far is any indication (and I know that it might not be), I can see
myself becoming quite an LH fan.

The good thing is that I'm also a Ferrari fan, so I stand a reasonable
chance of being happy this year!

The big question mark over McLaren may well turn out to be reliability, but
I'm guessing that if they've managed to get that sorted we could be in for
a few good silver-and-red battles this year (here's hoping!).

I agree. I am more a fan of F1 myself, rather than any particular team.
As long as I get to see a good fight on the track, I'm happy. I have
only been fed up with seeing the Ferrari dominance because of the rather
controversial manny in which Schuey conducted his business.

Now he has left the track, I'd be very happy to see a silver-red battle
this year. Although it looks like there could be a little white in there
too (meaning BMW). The more the merrier I say, I'd love to see half a
dozen cars scrapping for the podiums at every race.

I watched GP2 last year and saw him as a future World Champion, that's
if the F1 system doesn't grind him down, the best 'racer' since Mansell.

Don't get me wrong - Ferrari or LH could win a race, and if there's been
no fighting for it on track, passing in the pit stops or whatever, then
I'm not a happy bunny.
