    I'm annoyed that Rubens is going to get dropped. He doesn't crash and is capable of scoring points - and he's outplayed Button this year too. Yet, it looks like he's getting shoved out.

    If I was a team, taking the drivers salary into account, their drive to succeed, pace, experience, my ranking is:

    1) Massa (because I think his salary is quite low despite great pace)
    2) Alonso (ridiculous desire to win, very fast)
    3) Vettel (fast, great drive, cheap)
    4) Hamilton (very fast, prob expensive now though)
    5) Kubica (I don't know if he's that fast, cheap!)
    6) Trulli (deceptively fast, seems to be improving with age?, still mentally weak)
    7) Kimi (past-it? the highest paid driver on the grid..)
    8) Barrichello (fast, doesn't crash)
    9) Heidfeld (mentally weak?, but fast)
    10) Webber (is he really that good? doesn't crash)
    11) Glock (improving, seems tough, fast)
    12) Button (is he really that good? high price)
    13) Bourdais (will get better, 4 times champ in ANY series is impressive, getting closer to Vettel, cheap)
    14) Rosberg (seems a bit fragile, often fast)
    15) Kovalainen (surely he'll get better? does a good impression of fisichella but younger)
    16) Fisichella (not great of late, and not that cheap)
    17) Nakajima (a spirited performer!)
    18) Sutil (I really don't know)
    19) Piquet (Nope)

    I can't decide on most of them, so many of them are close. Reckon Button has more in him. Reckon Glock might become very good. Bourdais deserves another chance. Kovalainen...?? Trulli and Barrichello are both high because they are old grumps and prob capable of flogging the car into a result, which some others, ROSBERG, may not have! (though he did well in Singapore..)
