Think about where the rookies have come from.

Of all the front runners, i am very exited to see felipe and kimi perform. Kimi started his carreer in 2001, the same year TC was introduced so he has yet to have driven a race without it. Massa, as a rookie kept on spinning out during practice, qualifying and on some races, i'm sure he has improved a great deal since then and with the german giving him advice, i am anxious to see if he can make it work or not..
I don't know if yamamoto will drive next season but he's going to suck big time, i can't remember how many times he's spun out on his own this season, i can only imagine what it will be like for him without TC. .

You'll see Button at his best when everyone else has to cope with the grip levels that he's had to put up with for the last couple of years.
I think the loss of traction control will benefit the sport in the long term, although with the current tyre regulations (and the fact that most drivers change tyres twice per race) not many drivers will suffer the consequences of excessive wheelspin in the dry. It's in the wet that you'll see who suffers the most...lots more cars in the wall next year. I'll be putting a bet on "Crashajima II" having the most accidents next year, although I'm also interested to see how other young drivers like Kubica and Vettel cope without traction control.

I think the drivers not used to the absence of traction control will have some problems. Kimi should do quite well, I think Lewis would learn and adapt quickly and the older, more experienced drivers like DC should be able to handle the change.

The new and young drivers will suffer most the banning of traction control as well as untalented drivers like Felipe Massa but brilliant drivers like Lewis Hamilton will not only learn it very quickly but use it to their own advantage.

The rookies and one or two season old drivers would suffer. The veterans and those that has experience credited to their name already would shine and be fine.

The rookies and the newer guys. The really good ones should have no problems...

I think Lewis Hamilton, the way he drives, definitely gonna see some incidents with him this year.

Sakon Yamamoto. He can't drive with it, he doesnt have a chance without it.

I think Kubica will shine, he is an incredibly talented guy. Please watch for him next year
Not interested in anyone else!
