F3000 champions have notoriously had trouble proving themselves in F1, and ChampCar drivers have a mixed record once given an F1 chance, although the successes largely outweigh the failures. I'd love to see Seb get a test, but I'm not sure simply winning ChampCars against Bruno with by far the best setups and crew is neccessarily a big enough achievement to merit it.
But wouldn't it be fair to say that most drivers that are given a chance have trouble with F1? I'm not sure how grabbing someone like a Button has better initial results than a driver who's got more experience. BTW: Who were some recent F3000 champs other than Wilson and Hiedfeld?
