I'd definitely like to see Mick make it too! I hope he doesn't get the same excessive criticism that Bruno Senna got... He may not have been the most impressive driver in the world, but neither was he as bad as some claimed...

I miss Kobayashi driving in F1 – he was one of the most exciting drivers to watch, and also quite a sympathetic and funny guy! Seeing him get his first (and sadly only) podium at his home track was amazing! And I also miss the backmarker teams – Manor was my favorite team before they closed down (they were really the underdog team, with occasional potential)... Also Caterham and HRT (especially the later was likable in all its rejectfulness).

Yeah, Bruno wasn't great but there were other who were far worse. He wasn't as fast as Pastor but also didn't f**k up nearly as much.

Yeah, Kobayashi was pretty awesome! He's another one of those very underrated drivers. And I miss Caterham too, their green livery was one of the best on the grid!

It was always great to see Caterham or Manor make it to Q2 in qualifying... But it was one of my favorite F1 moments when Bianchi (a talent we lost way too early ) scored points in Monaco!

As for HRT, thinking about them always reminds me of their hilarious 2011 livery... I've never seen anyone make their quest for sponsors as obvious...
