Not sure Raikkonen and Alonso get enough credit for stone awful cars appear somewhat competitive.

I totally agree with your Kimi/Alonso comment, but I have really come around regarding Vettel. Varsha and company were oozing with Vettel-mania last year so much that I about threw up, but their predictions of multiple titles for the kid are totally understandable.

[JLMannin]

I think where on the list Alonso and Kimi are on the list is fair. I think Sutil is the vastly under-rated driver on this list.

Agreed on Vettel, huge talent and a funny guy. I don't see Barrichello as better than Kimi or even close. Agreed on Sutil as well, I expect to see good things from him in the future.

I'd put Massa higher and Button lower

Vettel should be #1 :thumbup:

I'm rooting for Massa to come out of the gate like a 3 year old Thoroughbred.

I was hoping for him to come out of the gate like a bolt-a 23 year old Jamaican sprinter called Usain
