finally my first 20/20 : )
after Fisi has been sidelined, Quick Nick was the driver I did support. I still can’t believe that he had to be treated the way Renault did, still definetley deserves a seat (or at least a 3rd driver role) in todays F1, unfortunately talent, work rate and professionalism don’t count that much in nowadays F1. if Renault (Lotus) have a solid year in 2012, Räikkönen could say a big thank you to Heidfeld for it… again…
awesome quiz, thanks for putting it online, made my day, and helped me a bit till the first car launch kicks in.

Well I wouldn’t for a start :) After the Lewis Hamilton, Ayrton Senna, Mika Hakkinen and Michael Schumacher quizzes, what’s next? Wait for it. Yes you guessed, the Nick Heidfeld quizz. Get in :D

As it says in the article, given that his career has most likely just come to an end, now seems like the most opportune time to look back on it.

If this was a true Nick Heidfeld quiz there’d be there’d be 41 consecutive questions and no one would ever win but there’d be plenty of runners up.

By now there’s already 4 of you!
Not me though, a meagre 6/20, but I thought it wiser to just take this result than risking the quiz timing out.

It’s a shame Nick was kicked out of Renault this season, he out performed Petrov in the races despite the fact that the car was designed with Kubica’s driving style in mind. And as we saw in 2008, those two seem to want the car set up in completely different ways.
Of course I look at it with bias but still, I feel that Nicks job this year was greatly underrated and I feel its a shame he won’t be on the grid this year.

It’s probably bad that I’m happy with that.
