    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?)

    Debate: Describe each driver in one word

    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

    Sebastian Vettel – Underrated*

    Mark Webber – Unlucky

    Lewis Hamilton – Irritating**

    Jenson Button – Impressive

    Fernando Alonso – Outperforming

    Michael Schumacher – Wiley

    Nico Rosberg – See Mark Webber

    Nick Heidfeld – Sacked

    Paul di Resta – Future

    Kamui Kobayashi – Disapointing

    Jaime Alguersuari – Improving

    Heikki Kovalainen – Determined

    Daniel Ricciardo – Practicing

    Timo Glock – Wasted

    Jerome d’Ambrosio – Who?

    * Considering his acheivements irrespective of machinery, he deserves more credit than he gets from fans, although more people are begining to realise now, and no doubt when the inevitable is confirmed later this year (WC2010,WC2011) he should get the respect.

    ** Still a huge fan but Lewis is irritating this year, almost byt not quite, shown glimmers in Spain, China and Germany but it just hasn’t clicked – whether his mind set os all wrong because of the slower car or whatever? That’s for another time anyway.

    I somehow only half read the title and thought we were describing other fanatics in one word :S I think I should go back to bed after this…

    Vettel: complete

    Webber: lacklustre

    Alonso: best

    Massa: Improving (I think that’s the best one yet for him PortuGoose)

    Hamilton: over-promising

    Button: there. (I was tempted to say “binman” as he keeps clearing up Ham’s mess for Mclaren by bringing in solid points)

    Rosberg: contender

    Schumacher: back.

    Petrov: quiet.

    Senna: mature

    Kobayashi: slow

    Perez: smooth

    Sutil: failing

    di Resta: delivering

    Buemi: average

    Alguersuari: hype

    Barrichello: done

    Maldonado: tempestuous

    Kovalainen: reborn

    Trulli: stronger

    Ricciardo: talented

    Liuzzi: bowling (sorry couldn’t help it after Monza)

    Glock: gloomy

    d’Ambrsio: sometimes. It’s difficult to know with Jerome because sometimes like earlier in the year he was outqualifying Timo but now he seems more out of his depth.
