So F1 2011 is getting closer,

Maybe its just me but i always pick one or two teams every year that will be my second team.

Mclaren will always be my team. In previous years i have taken to supporting super aguri , F1, Brawn GP (before they even got a car on the track), Jordan ect..

Last year i kept a close interest on Williams and Sauber,

This year im going to take an interest in mainly Team Lotus, Generally think Fernandes wants to make a proud and likeable team. I like Heki as a driver and person, I see team lotus as a highly ambitious team. Hope they show group loltus up.

Another team i will be keeping an eye on is Force India, again i think there owner wants to make a respectable team and theys hould be admired for there recent progress. Will be interesting to see how di resta gets on
 
I usually do it by drivers opposed to teams as teams tend to sap the fun out of racing some times... Though I always had a soft spot for super aguri with sort of crazy aguri suzuki running the better honda cars and all :D

Anyway Williams are my no1 as the retained the services of Rubens and its so good to watch both thrive with each other :)

Sauber are always a classic team to watch, Peter always seems to get his hands on some very good drivers over the years and Koby this season hopefully will be brilliant entertainment!

Oh and im expecting everyone to have a soft spot for Team Lotus, they more or less have become the hard working underdog that appeals to most F1 fans from the UK... (I cant help it either)
 
I want Force India, Team Lotus and Williams (best looking car so far) all to do well this year.


Obviously I'm hoping the McLaren boys have a good year too :p
 
I have always been a Mclaren fan for as long as I remember. I have always somewhat supported Williams aswell, even more so this year because they let iRacing scan their car and give us the most accurate commercial F1 sim to date.

This year I will be supporting Force India aswell just because Paul Di Resta is driving for them.
 
At the present, I am mostly supporting McLaren, as I have been a Button fan for a number of years, and like the all-british feeling. I am also supporting Team Lotus in the back half of the grid, as I believe that they have the right 'spirit'.
 
In previous years my fav teams were Jordan and then BAR (Honda/Brawn).

The team I'm following this year again will be Mclaren. The second team will be Lotus again :)

Ferrari will always be my main team. Won't be too upset if either of the McLaren drivers took the title, and want to see Team Lotus do well.

Actually, as long as Genii-LOLtus-Renault don't do very well, it's all good. Which is a real shame, as I quite like Robert Kubica.
 
Due to my continuing support of Alonso, Ferrari will be the team of choice again. :D

I would like to see Lotus (the green ones :rolleyes: ) and Williams do quite well this season. :)

Edit: Thinking about it, there aren't many teams I want to see with a run of bad results, only McLaren. :p

McLaren again for me this year.

Not a fan of Red Bull. Vettel is an annoying little brat and Horner just seems like a really slimy character, whose strings are being pulled furiously by a manic Austrian billionaire. And lets not even mention what kind of ocean-going **** Helmut Marko is.

Other than that its Team Lotus (thats the green/yellow ones, Sunama ;) ). They've a great attitude to racing, and I have a huge respect for what they've achieved so far, coming from absolutely nothing. Proves you don't always have to have a massive bank balance to make it in F1.

Wouldnt mind seeing Mercedes and Williams doing well this year too.

And I will add my normal from last season.

1st Lewis Hamilton
2ne Jenson Button
3rd don't care :D
 
As with most recent years, I'll be primarily backing Lewis Hamilton and McLaren, and I retain a strong dislike for Alonso, although he's unquestionably a great driver.

On the other drivers front, I'd like to see good showings from Kubica and Kobayashi. And on the other teams front I'd love to see Team Lotus and Force India do well. A return to front of pack form for Williams would also be welcomed.
 
McLaren of course, god love em. And for some reason I keep coming back to Mercedes...I guess it's because of their long-held association with McLaren, but I hope they do better this year.
But mainly I'll just be happy if Red Bull don't do well. I'd even prefer to see Ferrari win, which I'd have thought anathema a few years ago.
 
The two teams I always supported was McLaren and Williams (though McLaren more) but I have got support for Lotus now too (lotus lotus not renault lotus.) Though saying that it would be nice to see Kubica challenge for a championship again.
 
I have always been a ferrari fan, my first memory of F1 being Rene Arnoux and Gerhard Berger as drivers for them.

So from that standpoint i always like to see ferrari do well, however the teams i am now most interested in are McLaren and Mercedes GP.

McLaren because of the British interest, Mercedes because i really do want to see Schumacher put in some good races in a good car.
