Teams and Drivers
This year there will be one less team on the grid reducing the number of teams from 12 to 11. HRT went into liquidation on 30 November and were ommited from the 2013 entry list. In my opinion it is no big loss to Formula 1 as their best finish was 14th, 3 years ago. So, this is the grid for the 2013 season:
Red Bull
1. Sebastian Vettel (DEU)
2. Mark Webber (AUS)
Mclaren
3. Jenson Button (GBR)
4. Sergio Perez (MEX)
Ferrari
5. Fernando Alonso (ESP)
6. Felipe Massa (BRA)
Lotus
7. Kimi RƤikkƶnen (FIN)
8. Roman Grosjean (FRA)
Mercedes
9. Nico Roseburg (DEU)
10. Lewis Hamilton (GBR-ENG)
Sauber
11. Nico Hulkenburg (DEU)
12. Esteban GutiƩrrez (MEX)
Force India
14. Paul di Resta (GBR-SCO)
15. Sutil, Kobayashi, Bianchi, Rossiter
Williams
16. Pastor Maldanado (VEN)
17. Vatteri Bottas (FIN)
