Now that we have seen alot of testing its now becoming cleared who has the chance of being Top Brit in 2007. When we last had this vote on HPL I said Button but now I think Hamilton will probably get the most points out of all the Brits this year, due to the fact that mclaren seems alot better than the Honda and Hamilton has got speed out of his car straight out of the box. Then you would have to say DC for 3rd even though it doesn't look like it is going to be much better than 2006 and then Ant in 4th but I think he will gain alot of praise and respect in the Super Aguri and hopefully a couple of points.

Depends really. If you mean in terms of points, then Hamilton looks capable of beating Button...but if you mean comparison to teammate, then Button. Of course, by the time we get to Melbourne, the Honda might be more competitive than it has looked in testing... |

Personally I think Hamilton will have a FANTASTIC year, the McLaren will be fast from the off I'm quite sure of it. Now Button.......well it depends just how fast or slow the Honda turns out?! I suspect it will be quick, but not quite right up there like a suspect McLaren will. DC has no chance for obvious reasons, unless RBR are playing mind games in winter testing so far........find that unlikely somehow, and plainly Davidson will not have the equipment to compete for top Brit. So I will go for Hamilton, I know its his rookie season but I see the young Englishman racking up a good quota of points thanks to car and ability, when I think Button will be let down with the car rather than any ability issues. |

Whoever has the best car will probably win, as they are all similar quality wise i think probably Hamilton will be just ahead of Button with DC 3rd because the redbull looks crap to be honest.

At the moment hamiton has to be favourite. All depends on honda's development over the year. I have a feeling Davidson might even beat DC on points, the aguri looks realiable and could pick up a fair few scappy points. |

Hamilton may score more points due to a better car, but Button will impress more. |

If we go by testing, Hamilton has the better car. But he is a rookie, and I expect rookie mistakes from him this year.....expect to see him in the kittie litter often. |
