He is polarizing. Like most drivers.

 

Notice that 23% voted him as their favourite. That still leaves 77% who could be indifferent to him, or dislike him.

Then what does that say about Button 7%, Vettel 8%, Rosberg 1% to name but a few?

The same.

 

All the poll shows is that Lewis has the biggest fanbase on the board. He might also be the driver on the board who is most disliked.

 

As I said, he is polarizing. He evokes a lot of strong emotion, both positive and negative.

Not at all - I like Lewis and I would definitely say he is one of my favorite drivers but as the poll only allows 1 option I can't vote for him - if I was allowed multiple options I would have done (along with the 2nd McLaren driver, Ricciardo, Nasr and Kvyat , and possibly Checo, Hulkenberg and Vettel (oops, momentarily forgot he is now a Ferrari driver) if I was feeling generous).

Indeed. Hence why I specified "could".

 

There is going to be a chunk of posters who just like him, without him being their outright favourite.

voted Other/Manor

 

thought: F1

 

My horse Kubica is out so I have no favourite F1 driver, but I will be rooting Suzie Wolff, because F1 needs diversity.... shame that Danica Patrick is not attracted to F1

 

Why Manor? I like their resilience. 

 

Jp yes I am with you re: Hamilton, cant stand that so called friends especially Kim and West

Vettel

 

Ferrari

 

 

 

Hard to choose between Kimi and Vettel though, I like them both equally.

Just yesterday, I was walking down the street with my Ferrari jacket on and a guy on a bike stopped for a quick, "Hey I like your jacket"/quick F1 chat.

 

Years and years ago I was in Oxford and saw someone with some Super Aguri teamwear on. I tried to stop for a quick hey I like your jacket/quick F1 chat but he was really awkward and untalkative and it died quickly. Looking back on it he might've actually worked for them.

Ricciardo/Manor. Only because it wouldn't let me vote for no team. It would be Ricciardo/Ferrari but I just can't stomach Vettel/Kimi as a driver lineup.

Amazing how different the results were

Nothing wrong with those results (it's impossible to not to like D.R).

 

But I bloody hate Reddit. The discussion on that place is almost as bad as it is on YouTube.

I disagree, in r/formula1 the discussion is actually alot less fanboy centric than it is on here imo.

 

As for the rest of reddit, yes, its a cesspool.

 

 

I think what sticks out (other than the ric love obviously) is that Red Bull actually have a lot of support when the poll is more global, as opposed to this one which seems to be dominated by british voters.

Fair enough, I have never really been on the F1 sub-reddit. So that could be an exception.

 

I did notice that every country rated Alonso as the best driver, with Lewis coming in 2nd. The fact that they rated Alonso as the best driver despite him being a distant 4th on the favourite drivers list, does display that they can separate fanboyism from objectivity when expressing their opinions.

 

So yeah, credit where it is due.

I support Lewis.

The people who Lewis Hamilton annoys are the people I like to see annoyed.

My votes this time went to Daniel Ricciardo and Red Bull Racing.

 

Ricciardo I like for his charisma. Red Bull is harder to explain, there is not much difference to me really. I guess I like them for their livery and appreciate all what they have actually accomplished in F1 throughout years.
