Scott Speed, third after Silverstone, gets more notice than he should, because he is an American. I took the FIA survey and said an American in Formula 1 would not make it more interesting to me, but more than that if his name is Speed I would want to see him beat and beat regularly.
The story in GP2 should be the second generation big names that are on the rise. Niko Rosberg (second in series with 41 pts) is the first driver in the series to score back to back wins and the first to score a victory from the pole, is the son of the 1982 F1 World Champion Keke Rosberg . Mathius Lauda is the son of three time F1 World Champion, Niki Lauda. And, Nelson Piquet, Jr. whose Dad is also a three time F1 World Champion all have more interesting stories than Speed. As interesting as all this is though, it doesn’t take into consideration Heikki Kovalainen, the newest Fly’n Finn, who is in front of the GP2 series by 20 points.
