smooth jenson i partial agree with this article, no matter how a smooth a driver is, it ultimately depends on the car they have and although the mclaren didnt throw up any worries aprt from the first day, i will wait till after the first race to see what happens with driving style. |

I agree a lot, his style is really wrapped up in this pure sense of control an dprecision which most people donīt like because it doesn't look showy. I really hope it comes his way. |

Very much speculation. I think much more importance will be on managing all the electronics. Hard braking stores energy faster, and much of the acceleration will be reflected in the batteries than just pure fuel. Driver tactics will be more important and even some comments coming from Bahrain seem to indicate driver importance is bigger now than for a long time. Just being smooth will not be that important. Another factor is that with less down force it is more difficult to keep the temperatures in the tyres. As such a harder driver might keep the tyres in somewhat a more functional range. Having said that, a pretty smooth proposal on Valentines day. I wish him many children. Odd question - is it easier to make babies if you are a smooth driver or more of an aggressive driver? Finally - what kind of driver never gets speeding tickets??? A screw driver
