Grand Prix Rejects

Bruni for me.

HWNSNBM.

On the pure fact that he finished more races.

Even though the award will most likely go to a Minardi driver for like the 9th year running, I'll go against the grain and vote for Heidfeld

I don´t believe it, you´ve must copied it from wikipedia or something

You know, our Hungarian Overlord. Could it be someone else?

Oslzt Rbemgaatrun

Whoops, HWNSNBM scrambled the name above, you'll have to figure it out unfortunely

He Whose Name Shall Not Be Mentioned!!!

Im going to laugh if HWNSNBM is not on the list, but we know thats not going to happen

I think we've paid enough reverence to our Lord and Reject Savior to finally have someone tally up these numbers.

Sorry, I'm in the middle of exams right now, so it'll be at the end of the month.

Then, to keep the topic active, let's start guessing the 2005 winner!
My bet on 2005 is Friesacher.

2005... probably the first year of true Super-Reliability. Therefore I'm going with Albers.

I will go with Albers too.

Albers

Freisacher, I wonder what he is up to now days.

2005--Monteiro

Albers too.

I've finished 2004, and it will be up tomorrow afternoon (Belgian time). I can just tell you that the winner's tally makes Diniz in 1995 look like Fotheringham-Parker in 1951.

I promised it, and here it is, the utterly demolishing record set by the great one!
2004


1. HWNSNBM - 509 laps (Wizzie, James1978, Shizuka, Shadaza, DanielPT, Bleu, stupot94, Aerond, Phoenix, Jeremy McClean and Ferrim's pick)

wow

This is the best explanation of how hopelessly uncompetitive Minardi were in 2004, their less competitive ever season.

And a demonstration that HWNSNBM is able to do in a single year what takes half a century to everyone else.

and still he took a point finish (in last place, we all know that, but don't ruin the moment)

The scary thing is that if Minardi had kept HWNSNBM on for 2005, then he could have smashed the 1000 lap barrier, after all there were 19 races that year!!!!

Can't remember who I said for 2005 earlier, but I think I'll go with Monteiro for his ultra-reliability, I'm not too sure about the Minardis.

I go with Albers in 2005.

As I say, Monteiro for 2005

I say Albers.

Albers for me

Albers. I like to follow the flock.

I stick to my Friesacher bet.

Takuma Sato for 2006.

Oh dear, poor Webber!!

I'll say Montagny for 2006, I think he had most races of the second Super Aguri drivers, (especially as Yamamoto didn't complete a lap in his first two races) and Sato was the clear team leader, so......

Albers 06!!
