Which of the driver's who raced on the 2011 grid would people consider pay drivers?
Well Petrov being beaten by his teammate but his teammate being replaced is all the evidence I need that money was his biggest appeal for the second year running, however I concede that he has potential for the future.
Bruno, was it his money or his amazing ability to score 2 points?
Karthikeyan and Maldonado are surely there for their commercial worth.
Hulkenberg has defeated afew of these guys in GP2 but had no race seat.
Chandock beat Bruno when they were together but who's heard of Chandock's uncle? He resides in the reserve role of a newbie team and Bruno gets a race seat in an established midfield team.
Perez has clearly proved his worth in my opinion, even though Maldonado beat him to the GP2 title in 2010, it was Perez first try and Maldonado had been there for afew years.
I was just about to write a little thing on what people think are paydrivers, and whether they appreciate their place in F1, but too late...
