Cars or Drivers the Stars
So who do the fans follow, the cars (Ford or Holden) or the drivers. Do you think if we put all the current drivers in open wheelers the fans would turn up to watch?

Very definitely manufacturer first , then probably driver and then team.
Perhaps this subjects would make an interesting poll? |

I grew up as a Brock/Holden fan and my Dad followed Moffat then Johnson in Fords. We watched the races together and had a lot of fun ribbing each other.
Now, that Dad is no longer with us, i'm neither Ford nor Holden, i just follow my favourite drivers. |

Holden first then drivers then teams. Although when drivers cross the fence you do keep an eye for them-depends on who they are though, shame that Bargs isn't in V8s full time anymore, that guy's a character!
