Hamilton
Raikkonen
Natural racers first and foremost, drove flat out constantly and never gave up in pursuit of lost causes, can make a bad car look good
Least favourite drivers
Alonso - His attitude annoys me, from 2006 where he accused his own team of not wanting him to win the championship to finger gestures at Petrov after Abu Dhabi because he wouldn't let him past. Don't get me wrong I think he is a brilliant driver but his attitude is shocking
Villeuneve - Never knows when to shut up, has been living off his 1997 championship for years, the BAR scenario was embarrasing and his comments about Button in 2003 were unneccesary.
Favourite Teams
McLaren - Particularly now that it's not as corporate and cold as it used to be, no team orders anymore
Minardi - The perennial underdog, everyones second team, never had a pay driver, the step up for many sucessful racing drivers.
Least favourite teams
Red Bull - Not because of their dominance, but because of the pure fact that it's a drinks company, where is the racing/driving heratige? That and I can't stand Christian Horner
Toyota- Thought the key to a race winning team was to throw as much money at the team as possible, only time they got close was in 2005 when they ran like a proper team but they sacked Gasgoyne and it went backwards until the occasional race in 2009 thanks to the double diffuser, but we'll never know how good the 2010 car was because it never raced.

Favourites:
Drivers:
Felipe Massa - even though i'm a big fan of both Lewis and Jenson. Felipe Massa can do no wrong for me, a generally nice guy who deserves to be at a better team.
Damon Hill - He's a generally nice guy and has done so much to help F1 stay in Great Britian.
Teams:
Mclaren - Just have a genuine love for Mclaren, everything from the history of the team to the numerous champions they've had.
Minardi - For me their were my favourite second team behind Mclaren, they'd always bring new talent to the grid and worked around a small budget.
Least Favs:
Mark Webber - can't stand him one bit, all he seems to do is winge and i just can't take it any more!
Jacque Villneuve - someone put a feather in his mouth please, he never stops critising the sport since retiring and quite frankly i'm bloody glad he's not coming back to F1 ever!
Red Bull - RB, just beats Ferrari for me. Reason been is i don't like Christian Horner and hate the team policy at Red Bull for favouring one driver over the other.
BAR/HONDA - Waste of a team, spent big in F1 and failed by only managing to claim 1 win in they time in F1.

Lewis Hamilton
Gilles Villeneuve
Both drivers would give everything and all attack. Great entertainers, these are my type of drivers, drivers who want to win races and not play the long game. They race and it's what I like to see and they make things happen instead of waiting for things to happen.
McLaren
Alfa Romeo SpA
McLaren are great innovators with Carbon Fibre and other technologies. While Alfa are a great past team, very successful in their first incarnation winning the first two driver's championships. In their second incarnation their fan car was a beauty to behold.

Sebastian Vettel
Jacques Villeneuve
I like Seb the man outside the car, but in the car he just seems to grate me. His celebrations seem to be all about him with his finger and crazy frog impression. It can't really put my finger on it but it doesn't sit well with me. But when he is out the car he is great fun, funny and a good man.
HRT
Midland
HRT seem to treat their drivers with little respect and Midland were just, anonymous to me.

Kamui Kobiashyi - My favorite current driver seems to change week by week admittidly but This guy is usally up there the my most likeable list. A good racer a bit of an underdog and always seems to be really happy to be an F1 driver
Jean Alesi - Haven't really got a clue why really. Maybe I like the cut of his jib? A bit of Italain flair outside and inside the car does the trick for me maybe also.
HRT - Somebody has to!
Jordan - A Toss up between Jordan and Minardi, both Underdog Teams, one got some sort of success while the other never quite managed it, bar a few points here n there. I think its an eccentric leader and the bulldog sprit to take on the big boys and almost nicking the WDC one year that does it for me.

Lewis Hamilton - Great Driver but perhaps a bit too quick to tell the whole world about it. Everytime i mellow towards him a bit, he then ruins it by annoying me even more.
David Couthard - Overrated and full of himself has a driver. Got beat by everyteam mate Bar Klien, who to put it politely was very very average. And Webber courtesy of terrible luck and reliabilty issues for Webber. Saying things like 'I know Schumacher caused the accident even though i didn't see it" at Austria 01' ......It wasn't, and "I'll knock 7 shades for the Brown stuff" towards Massa when it was couthards fault makes me want to give him a taste of my left fist.
Perhaps mellowed now a bit, but the only driver ive wanted to cause physical harm to ever.
McLaren - Don't really dislike any Teams today, but certainly under the Ron Dennis era just left me feeling a little cold.
Arrows - I pretty much only remember the Tom Walkinshaw era of the team, but changing literally, it seemed at one point, absoulty everybody in the team every season is not the way of buliding a team and moving them towards the front, especially when you condsider, some of the talented drivers, designers they tossed out on limb. The final season also leaves a sour taste in my mouth too.

Could of been clearer but he is French-Italian. He certainly inherited the Italian Flair.

McLaren- Jpm and lewis drove/drive for them
Jordan-Fun. And I like yellow

Alonso-
Too many 'gates'. Mardy and a poor sport. Needs help to beat team mates or throws toys out.
Schumacher(can't I pretend he's still retired? I like him a bit better now)- Cheated to win. wouldnt allow team mates to compete, in fact rather like Alonso.Waaay over-rated.
If I cant have Schumacher I'll have:-
His brother-wasnt very good and i just didnt like him.
Ferrari- all the cheating in the Schumacher years. They arent so bad now and I like stephano and I love Smedley
Williams-for sacking Damon

Eddie Cheever - Always had a complaint. Classic "under-a-cheever" (Yes, I just made that up!)

Benetton - Hideous liveries. Rumours of blatant cheating. Their team principal.
Ferrari - You either love em or hate em right?
