[QUOTE="johnnoble1990, post: 40191"] I did think about the fact that this is how people like Alonso, Massa, Webber, Button, Vettel and pretty much every good modern driver started out. As you say, getting given a title winning car in your first season is not only unique, but bizzare. No team can say for certain that a driver proven in lower formulas will instantly perform in F1. The point i was making about Senna is if he was good enough, then all the good teams would've been watching him for the payday he would inevitably bring. My point gets lost by the fact that i forgot something when i originally posted. Senna did almost end up in a title winning car in his first season. Had Brawn not chosen Barrichello over him for his experience, he might have been given a chance to compete for a world championship in his first season. Like you, i do hope Senna proves to be a top driver in future, but it will be difficult for him to ever get out of the shadow of his uncle. Still, who knows how good he will prove to be? It was a good point about Nick. I was pleased to see him getting a drive this season because he has been proven in the past, but that result at the weekend was very poor indeed. Maybe we might see Senna returning sooner than we thought. [/QUOTE]
