F1 S14 Preview: Who can stop Philippe St. Germain Jr?
Is there anyway someone can stop him from winning his 4th title?
The Frenchman dominated last season, winning half of the races, finishing on the podium 16 times as well of taking pole positions out of 20, that's like 80% of the whole season, 5 fastest laps too and a total of 359 points all together. He's only failed to finish at Singapore having spun out due to brake failure, his closest challenger Charvec Libor was 69 points behind despite having finished every single race on the calendar, winning 4 races. The other 4 (Grandi, Di Rado, Kaderabek and Bum) have all won races too. At least F1 that season was a fun one to watch but St. Germain showing who's the boss again.
The Comebackers, The Goners and The Newbies
Let's start with Ferrari cause I got alot to say, Vili Suchar really put Ferrari the pain in their butts, no car developement, his slow driving wasn't gonna help too and his rating decreased, the season before, they finished the season with only 1 single tyre, blowouts during all the season and let's just say that affected him badly and so did Marko (got fired at the end), Dominik Dan really needed to revive them so he had to give him the boot and Banik who spent all his blood outpeforming the car was left out for Peter Leysek.
Toro Rosso entered the sport as the Red Bull Junior Team and took Belgium Number 1 Jerko Vandenbergh and two-time NASCAR champ Luchino Granelli.
There were other driver changes too.
Heydfeldov moved to the European Touring Car Series and Russian Number 1 Oleg Petrov became his replacement, Red Bull Constructor Champs hired Grosjean Jr. while Tok moved to Audi replacing the out-going Jukna. Regular WAR driver Kauss announced his racing retirement and young Hungarian star Toghelle became his replacement. Max Andrews was booted after 1 season and Frank Heidrich became his new replacement.
And there aren't any others, write a reaction if I forgot any, i can't be bothered to write them all, my fingers hurt. :P
