MercedesGP fan

Post by SilverStar » 10 Feb 2011, 15:07

Hello. Hope you don't mind if I join in the fun. I found you on Yahoo, thought I should join before the season starts, so hello :-) I live in England, I am a big F1 fan, I support MercedesGP with a passion. Trouble is my team keeps getting bought out, I began my interest in F1 by supporting the Tyrrell team in about 1996 as my favourite driver was Mika Salo, then Tyrrell became BAR, then BAR got taken over by Honda, then Honda was bought out by Brawn, and then Brawn got taken over by MercedesGP, so in a way I have supported Mercedes for ages, but they just keep changing names LOL I am pretty calm and laid back, so I won't get mad no matter how often you tell me you hate Schumacher, I just won't care LOL. So I will hope to post a lot, may even make a nice donation when I get paid as it looks like a good forum. Bye for now.

In a word, Jenson. Lots of fickle people as you will know jumped on the Brawn bandwagon simply because of Jenson, then when he left and Mercedes bought them out, they abandoned the team, but I stuck with them.

Well, you must've had a tough 2010. Hopefully your team fares better in 2011. My heart is with Renault, though. Welcome! :-)

It didn't seem that tough, especially Nico who was the best of all the non RB/McLaren/Ferrari drivers. OK it wasn't the sort of year we had as BrawnGP in 09, but still comfortably 4th best team behind the Big 3 of Red Bull, McLaren, Ferrari. I think we can win a few good podiums this year, maybe a couple of races. I trust Ross Brawn to get it right in time, he has yet to fail to win championships in any team he has worked on.
