Here I disagree. You don't just switch allegiances like that. Though what helps me through tough years (and Mercedes has had a lot, both with their own team as well as with McLaren or Sauber before that) was to pick drivers that I like or smaller teams that I like and rooting for them. For example, I really developed some kind of affection for both Sauber and Force India and whenever they do well, that makes me happyflmkane wrote: If your favorite team aint winning, then get a new favorite team.

Well... I was being sarcastic. Sick of the Red Bull and Ferrari fans frothing at the mouth.
Personally I've given up having favorites drivers and teams. I just enjoy the action now. Much less annoying.
