    This is the line-up I’d like to see on the grid in Australia (obviously some of it has no chance of happening)

    Red Bull
    1. Sebastian Vettel
    2. Lewis Hamilton

    Mclaren
    3. Jenson Button
    4. Kimi Raikkonen

    Ferrari
    5. Fernando Alonso
    6. Robert Kubica (to replace Massa as soon as he’s fit and providing he is still as quick)

    Mercedes
    7. Michael Schumacher
    8. Nico Rosberg

    Lotus
    9. Mark Webber
    10. Romain Grosjean

    Force India
    11. Paul Di Resta
    12. Nico Hulkenberg

    Sauber
    14. Kamui Kobayashi (to be assessed mid-season and possibly replaced by Jules Bianchi)
    15. Sergio Perez

    Toro Rosso
    16. Daniel Ricciardo
    17. Jean-Eric Vergne

    Williams
    18. Rubens Barrichello
    19. Adrian Sutil

    Caterham
    20. Heikki Kovalainen
    21. Bruno Senna

    HRT
    22. Jaime Alguersuari
    23. Valtteri Bottas

    Marussia
    24. Timo Glock
    25. Charles Pic

    Red Bull
    1. Sebastian Vettel
    2. Jaime Alguersuari
    Reasoning: Well, Vettel is the world champion, I don’t have to say anything else to that. And I was convinced by Alguersuari’s effort. He would surely fare better against Vettel than Webber did.

    Mclaren
    3. Lewis Hamilton
    4. Vitaly Petrov
    Reasoning: Anything to get Button of the grid and why not, surely a Russian top-level driver would be worth something.

    Ferrari
    5. Fernando Alonso
    6. Sergio Perez
    Reasoning: Sergio Perez had a good rookie season and can perform on the same level that the 2011 Massa can – I would put Bianchi in there, but I fear that Alonso would damage his reputation.

    Mercedes
    7. Michael Schumacher
    8. Ralf Schumacher
    Reasoning: Well, why not?

    Lotus
    9. Nick Heidfeld
    10. Romain Grosjean
    Reasoning: Out of the many combinations the Lotus Driver Dices™ throw up, I like this one the most.

    Force India
    11. Paul Di Resta
    12. Jerome D’Ambrosio
    Reasoning: Nico Hülkenberg is horrendously overrated and therefore I think his space on the grid should go to a rookie who is not, Jerome seems to be that man.

    Sauber
    14. Kamui Kobayashi
    15. Jules Bianchi
    Reasoning: As I have said a number of times before, we are seeing a possible future world champion in Jules Bianchi…

    Toro Rosso
    16. Miguel Molina
    17. Jean-Eric Vergne
    Reasoning: Paul Di Resta looked good coming from DTM and Miguel Molina has shown promise there, I think he could cut it in F1.

    Williams
    18. Rubens Barrichello
    19. Pastor Maldonado
    Reasoning: One. More. Season.

    Caterham
    20. Heikki Kovalainen
    21. Takuma Sato
    Reasoning: Takuma Sato is awesome and Jarno Trulli is not, that should suffice.

    HRT
    22. Narain Karthikeyan
    23. Pedro De La Rosa
    Reasoning: Well, there is no rational reason to use Karthikeyan, although his performance at his home race was very good, but I feel like doing so, because the other candidates do not look that interesting.

    Marussia
    24. Timo Glock
    25. Charles Pic
    Reasoning: I fail to care about Marussia, Timo Glock and/or Charles Pic and so I figured I might leave that unchanged.
