Who will be Rookie of the Year Runner-up?

Despite his lack of results so far, it seems clear that Bourdais can be a comfrotable rookie of the year. But who will come second? Some of the guys have impressed already, with Haberfeld showing great pace considering the lack of experience around him, and Manning having barely made a mistake amidst some real pace, with Hunter-Reay still intermittantly impeessive, and Montiero and Yoong doing well considerign how mcuh testing they've missed out on. What do you guys think?

Thanks to the messed up Eurisport coverage, I missed the last two races cause they didnt actually tell us the correct time however I did see the first race, and Mario Haberfield did impress me. This kid could have a nice future ahead of him

The real canidates are Haberfeld, Hunter-Reay, Hunter-Reay. I think a lot of it will come down to their cars. I don't know which will do it. All are pretty impressive. I have a feeling Haberfeld might have the talent edge.

It has to be between Yoong and Lavin. Their performances at Long Beach this past weekend have "Senna" written all over it.

Just re-read my post, the second Hynter-Reay was suppose to be a Manning.

corkholio, actually you're the only guy calling Yoong "Senna". Maybe you like the Malaysian driver more than you'd ever admit?

Sure I like him as a person. I just don't consider him a "driver".

Mario haberfeld is the more talented one next to Bourdais... Manning is also doing great...

Haberfeld. Think it's fair to assume it won't be the useless Lavin...

andre lotterer (voted someone who hasn´t started yet) hopefully he gets a seat at least for the eurospeedway and i really hope they don´t put Alex Müller in the car there...

Its not clear Bourdais will win RotY!

Haberfeld has a better chance.

Bourdais is likely to be 2nd or lower. Based on the races so far.

Bourdais has the second best qualifying average in the series, he'll win ROTY before the season is out

If the ROTY title were already certain to go in Bourdais favour, there would be little reason to watch. If the Reynard is good enough Haberfeld, Manning, and Hunter-Rhey might have a shot at it.

Bourdais is the favourite though.
