Grand Prix Rejects

Didn't he finish 4th in Monaco? I thought it was Herbert who was delayed and spent a lot of laps in last there?

Woops, sorry. Irvine took all 66 laps in Canada followed by regular laps in last due to pitstops.

Fernando Alonso! The only legitamate time I can nominate him, so I will.

Fernando Alonso

Alonso!

Fernando Alonso. That minardi backmarker!

I'm nominating Button aswell.

It has to be Marques... he didn't complete the season, but just missed a few races at the end.

I'm tempted to nominate one of the Arrows, but I'll say Marques.

BTW I missed my "Diniz will pass Katayama" prediction for a few laps.

Marques for me.

Tarso Marques, which is ironically featured on the What was of... section of F1 Racing this month.

It must be Alex Yoong.

Yoong. Hopefully.

Who else but Alex Yoong?

Alex Yoong, surely.

Yoong scored 4 DNQs and was replaced by Davidson for 2 races. Still I thought the remaining 10 races would have given him a big advantage.

2003 will definately be tougher. I bet my money on Nicolas Kiesa.

Jos "the boss" Verstappen, ok so he was generally faster then his team mates but was the only minardi driver to see out the season.

Jos Verstappen, but Kiesa will be very close!

I'm going with Kiesa aswell.

For me it is Jos Verstappen.

Kiesa

(LOL I forgot to vote for 2002.)

Justin Wilson

Verstappen.

I'll go for Verstappen.

Nicolas Kiesa

Verstappen for 2003

Justin Wilson.

Jos

Justin Wilson

Pantano and Bruni might provide some competition but I'm going to vote for our esteemed leader.

Bruni

I think Bruni takes it all.

It surely has to be the great one for 2004!
