What do you think have been the biggest wastes of potential in the history of F1? Great cars given to the wrong drivers, great drivers who lucked out, behind-the-scenes people who never got the chance to showcase their ideas - all welcome here.
I'll start with a couple of my own opinions:
- the 2012 Lotus and the 2014 WIlliams. Both were unexpectedly good cars and I believe that if both teams had had more competent drivers they could well have been WDC and WCC challengers (admittedly, both would have been outside bets);
- Nico Hulkenberg, no explanation needed on that one;
- the 2009 Toyota looked like an amazing car and had a better team been at the wheel maybe it could have been a front-runner
Over to you forumers.
