While reading Rib khalifa’s post about describing F1 in one word a post from 2007 on F1Fanatic sprung to mind, except it was describing each driver individually. It’s quite funny to see how things have changed, or haven’t, here’s a few I found quite interesting:
“Mark Webber – Unlucky”
“Robert Kubica – Fortunate”
“Robert Kubica – Crashmeister”
“Lewis Hamilton – Impatient”
“Felipe Massa – Nearly Man” (Can’t get much closer than one corner)
“Felipe Massa – teamplayer”
“Sebastian Vettel – Fast”
“Sebastian Vettel – rainmaster” (Is this guy psychic?)

So I’d like to see, almost 4 years on, how our opinions have changed;
Sebastian Vettel – Lucky
Mark Webber – Starts
Lewis Hamilton – Frustrated
Jenson Button – Relaxed
Fernando Alonso – Quick
Felipe Massa – Lost
Michael Schumacher – Revitalised
Nico Rosberg – Disappointed
Nick Heidfeld – Court
Bruno Senna – Impressive
Vitaly Petrov – Declining
Rubens Barrichello – Consistent
Pastor Maldonado – Inconsistent
Adrian Sutil – Ageing
Paul di Resta – Fresh
Kamui Kobayashi – Lackluster
Sergio Perez – Promising
Sebastian Buemi – Worsening
Jaime Alguersuari – Improving
Heikki Kovalainen – Talent
Jarno Trulli – Steering
Narain Karthikeyan – Nationality
Daniel Ricciardo – Future
Viantonio Liuzzi – Steady
Timo Glock – Wasted
Jerome d’Ambrosio – Invisible
