    If you could get one driver from another series into a Ferrari F1 seat, who would it be?

    I'd love to see Brad Keselowski alongside Sebastian Vettel, I think the two would make a very interesting pair, both are outspoken and tough, the F1 weekend would be much improved with his outspoken comments, and his driving and car development knowledge are both excellent. He won a NASCAR Championship with the odds stack against him, race management through yellows at periods that favored his Chevy opposition. He wasn't meant to win that championship for Dodge, yet he pulled it off anyway. He's maybe not the #1 driver in NASCAR, and certainly not the #1 in the world, but I feel he'd greatly improve the F1 scene for the viewers at home.

    Who would you bring?

    I'm still amazed how Mclaren/Honda snuck a GP2 engine past the scruntaneers at the Japan F1 race last year for Alonso's F1 car.

    LOL, post of the day

    I like Brad K too, I think him and Vettel would get along well. He's not even close to the #1 driver in Nascar though

    Mad Max to replace Kimi. But then again, the technical team needs to be better, i.e whoever designs the car, etc.

    Lewis Hamilton. Pair him up with Seb and watch this forum light up :) It would surely settle part of the debate as to who is the best current driver.

    Doubtful. There is no measurable difference between the two. Each has their strong areas and their weak areas. Through different years, different cars I would expect the results to sway back and forth depending on who was most comfortable at the time.

    One person and one person only... Stoffel Vandoorne

    That kid is the real deal. Most everyone else... Hulk, Bottas, Grojean, and some others are all very good drivers but seem to lack that intangible championship quality.

    Cool question.

    I'd like to see Newgarden get a shot in F1, with any team, but I doubt it will happen. Not sure he would fit in either. The indycar driver/team culture is so much different than F1.

    well I'd answer this question in two ways... maybe 3 ways...

    1. Realistically - Pascal Weherlin...
    2. Emotionally - Alex Rossi
    3. Fantasy - Sebastian Loeb... I'd love them to say Sebastian and have both of them say who?

    Probably with Weherlein is that harianto kicks his ass too often in qualy for him to be something special...

    That was Toro Rosso in 2008 - Sebastian Vettel and Sebastien Bourdais.

    I nearly always see or hear him called Vettle though, rather than Sebastian.

    What was bad, was martin brundle/blundel, poor Murray Walker couldn't keep those names seperate in his excitement. "And Martin Brundel is in fith AND sixth!"

    Felipe Nasr and Felipe Massa sound confusing to fans listening in.

    I'd bring freahmeat to Ferrari.

    Based on his posts on Fchat, apparently he knows far more about running a successful F1 team and how to use the best strategy in every situation that might crop up in a race, than Ferrari or anyone else in F1 does! :rolleyes:
