    Daniel Ricciardo more than anyone. Then Jules Bianchi.

    I’s gonna be hard for Bianchi, because he broke his back when Tung crashed into him. It’s interesting because Maldonado is managed by Nicola Todt of ART, so is Bianchi, even though Maldonado is at Rapax.

    I doubt we’ll see any drivers graduating from US series’ in the fext few years at least. I mean, if Sebastien Bourdais was capable of winning 4 Champ Car titles then floundered in F1, what hope do the others have?!

    I’m a fan of Sergio Perez, I hope he gets a drive soon. Gary Paffett’s Formula One debut is long overdue, it would be nice to see him get a race seat soon.

    What about Formula Nippon drivers? Formula Nippon is like an underrated GP2 equivalent, with talented drivers like Joao Paulo de Oliviera and Loic Duval, who might just graduate to F1.

    PortuGoose – It would be great to have Winkelhock back, but on the other hand, let’s be honest, he wasn’t good enough, but if he never comes back the legend and the statistics will remain intact!

    Maldonado deserves a shot, Clos has progressed a lot and impressed me this year, Perez has the speed. Bianchi probably needs another year in GP2 to improve his consistency. For more long term prospects, Ricciardo, Gutierrez… Aleshin and Vasilauskas will probably have good sponsorship potential in the vein of Petrov.

    I’d also like to see Jani get a chance – maybe at Force India, what with his Indian connections? Soucek as well, after his middling GP2 performances but great F2 form I’m not sure how good he is. But Grosjean and Kobayashi last year, and Senna vs. Chandhok this year, have showed that GP2 form is by no means a clear indication of F1 potential.

    I always thought it was a shame Ernesto Viso never got into F1, and now I can’t see it happening to be honest.

    Bertrand Baguette
    Not only for his name but the fact Spa would have a Belge to cheer on.

    I hear he’s quite good too.

    Danica Patrick

    ANTHONY DAVIDSON! Get him off the merc simlulator, dust him down a little and put him in a Force India along with Paul Di Resta after Sutil runs off to Renault.

    Would be great to see an American in F1 again, but not Danica. She’s got a snotty attitude and it would be a shame for her to get a seat before more capable drivers just for the publicity. I’d also love to see Loeb and/or Rossi make the jump to F1. I think it’s a forgone conclusion that Ricciardo and Di Resta will make it within the next couple seasons.

    Oh, and Markus Winkelhock!
