"If you are a massive F1 fan do you?
1, Support a f1 team all the time
or
2, Do you support a driver and follow him as he transfers to other teams in his career "
I use to love McLaren when David Coulthard and Mika hakkinen.
I'm liking lando Norris these days and hope he improves on last season  |

Neither for me, I just like the whole spectacle. Although I do love it when our English drivers or teams are doing well.
Mrs is a little different, she roots for Lewis and Mercedes, but also wants Max, Lando, Carlos and George to do well.
The coming season is going to be interesting, possibly quite dramatic. |

I tend to be a driver fan over team, but have teams I like.
As a (very) small child it was Jackie Stewart (who I got to meet a few times) and Emmerson Fittipladi. Lauda (again got to meet) and Gilles Villeneuve. Always a huge Prost and Senna fan, and a huge part of F1 died for me when he lost his life at Imola. Schumacher... great driver.
Now, I just enjoy great racing, and hopefully we will get some this year. Sadly, the turbo hybrid era and tight restrictions on testing have given Mercedes a total advantage which I believe is negative for F1.
This year, I'd love to see McLaren do well, and LeClerc to grab a few wins at Ferrari. Locally, I hope Honda progress with Red Bull and I'll be interested to see how Perez fairs there. I liked Albon. Rooting for Alpha tour too. |

Yep I'm a fan.
I was very fortunate growing up to be able to attend a fair few gp's with pit passes etc.
I remember being about 14 and being asked to leave the Venturi pit as my pass was for a rival team! |

McLaren Supporter, with a soft spot for Williams, and (yes I know) I'm a Hamilton fan, yes decisive and all, but hey is such a gifted driver.
I also follow Lando and Danny Ric too, both brilliant drivers, and great on and off the track.
Although I love the technology behind F1, it's what makes me watch, and on that basis I'm a Merc fan, they seem to bring the innovation every year. |

When i used to watch F1 I didnt particualy have a team per se
I did have an unhealthy obession with Nigel Mansell as a child
I tend to only watch Endurance GT racing now which I tend to follow either Nick Tandy (He lives very close and i did some of the catering for his brother funeral) or Kévin Estre, but they both drive for Porshe |

I am not into celebrities but I do admire courage and skill in F1 but I include in that all those who design and build the cars and infrastructure. The engineering is as interesting to me as the Racing . |

Lost interest in F1 years ago and became more of a fan of the Aussie Supercars, though my favourite driver in that series has retired. So now my favourite driver will be shed dwelling Britcar rookie Jimmy Broadbent |

For me it's odd, because football I support one team and one team only, but F1 I tend to like the sport as a whole. My interest was around the Coulthard / Mclaren era, and since then I've followed the different stories with interest across the sport, without ever singularly supporting any one...   |

I'm a tifosi throughand through but do follow some drivers such as Ricciardo and Vettel who do not race for Ferrari.
