    I'm sure if lewis was gone you would miss him. He made at least 4-5 races entertaining this year solely by himself. Hate him or love him his drives from the back are entertaining and that's reason enough to love him IMO


    Top 5

    1. LH's poor reliability compared with that of his team mate
    2. Engine sound of 2014/the move to be environmentally friendly in f1
    3. Kimi wasting a ferrari seat when he should retire
    4. Pay drivers
    5. Development freeze (not so bad ATM cos LH winning)

    why only 5?

    Compared to " the good old days" i can come up with at least a dozen more. Over the last decade F1 is regulated to death.

    No Igor did, I'am sure he would verify he is not made of Ham...

    Besides if Ham was no good, we wouldn't be talking about him would we :D

    Without much thought but ..quickly springing to mind are:

    1 sound
    2 front nose looks yuck
    3 still grey area rules
    4 DD points last race bolloxs
    5 silly driver salutes, doughnuts should be allowed instead.

    1. The importance of aerodnamics.
    2. The present engine regulations.
    3. The testing ban.
    4. The tyre monopoly.
    5. The Tilke circuits.

    the motor (hybrid/regeneration, the sound, etc. id like to go back to N/A V10s or V12s)
    no chance for the "little" guys
    the nose of the cars
    double points on the last race
    the podium after EVERY race. Ive always thought it was odd they try to have such a grand podium ceremony after the race but generally the races don't seem like they care to be there. Just have one ceremony at the end of the season.

    1) The sound, it is not only quiet but it sounds like a flatulent fraternity boy after a night of Coors Light
    2) Tilke tracks like Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and China
    3) The greening of Formula 1 forcing drivers to lift every lap to make it to the end of the race rather than going full out
    4) The ugly phallic noses
    5) Marginally talented pay drivers like Maldanado and Chilton
