i take a keen interest in it, but cant pretend to know lots of technial details.

i think Hamilton has made a flying start to the season and has got some serious skills!!

however i think these days, the car that the person is driving has much more of an impact than tthe skills of the driver. i mean if you put hamilton in one of the Hondas he obviously would not be doing so well, so while everyone jumps up and down and say how great Schumacher and Alonso are they wouldnt be anywhere without the mechanics! but put the driving who finished bottom last year in this years top car and the would be in the top 3!!.

its not like the "Good old days" (lol soz had to say it) where the mans skills was key to winning.

what do you think? given the best car could any of the drivers in the championship win a race?

p.s Nice topic
