Anyone else here a F1 fan like myself? Let's start this thread for the 2013 Season. Who is your favorite team/driver? and who do you think is going to win the Driver/Constructor Championship?

Whichever team is in front the most at the first turn on lap 1.

F1 is now about qualifying and pushing your way in front at the first turn. Racing and passing died out over a decade ago.

I LOVE F1. It's just so hard to get here in the U.S. I'm a big Vettel fan. I just love how he's all about the race and not the politics. The Malaysian Grand Prix proved that.

I've been a Scuderia Fan for ages, and i've been out of the country, but just got my USGP tickets the other day ($180 for a 3 day pass General Admission). I love the fact that it's in Austin. COTA is a really good track from what I've seen. (they also do Moto GP, Lemans, and V8 Supercars)

Um... Is that the last time you watched F1? MUCH different the past few years. REALLY good stuff these days.

FORZA ALONSO!!!

I hate to admit it, but from what little we've seen so far Ferrari is looking really good this year, their cars finally have that straight line speed they lacked last season.

I don't care tho, I'll still cheer for Kimi and Lewis to keep Ferrari and redbull honest.

anybody else in NA planning on trying to go to USGP in November? Austin is usually still warm that time of year...

Was always a fan of the STIG but now that he is gone I will root for Hamilton. I like Webber but do not like Vettel. With that said, logic would bet on Red Bull Racing for the constructor's championship.
