Hi chaps

How do you think has the best F1 team website ?
I'll be interested to hear what you think works and doesn't and do you even use them ?

I voted for Renault but based on the 2010 site (which isn't available anymore!)

(not enough options for Hispania - which is truly awful and STR is the same as Red Bulls)

Red Bull have managed to make their page too wide - at 1024 pixels it still shows a horizontal scrollbar. FAIL.

Virgin's was the "best" for me, although Sauber's was very Teutonic and reminded me of the website of an industrial actuating valve manufacturer, which was good.

Is that Kobayashi modelling the merchandise there? I've just realised I've never seen him without an enormous grin on his face before. biggrin

I hate the McLaren page with a passion. Far too much stuff on the front page.

McLaren's site is horrible, as is Ferrari's.

The Mclaren website is hard to find the information you want on, the Ferrari one just looks amatuer.

I love the Lotus Racing/Team Lotus one though.

I think Mclaren's site is dreadful - Cost a small fortune and is too designed for it's own good. But the driver/team race feed is good.

I hate Team Lotus's site. The scrolling logos drive me nuts - i can't focus on anything because of it. I also think the twitter feed is bizzare. Mention @tonyfernandes @lotus and it appears in the feed - there's been some funny ones - today there was something with @tonyfernandes and porn !
Nothing lines up either - badly designed

Renault was the best by far - loads of great information.

Red Bulls is pretty good as well

McLarens have way too much information (aka clutter) on the first page.
Rendering takes too long (I want it loaded in a second, maybe two - this took at least 4 or 5 to complete.)

Red Bull - agree with having to scroll across? Really? in 2011!?!

Sauber however, is brilliant. Simple, effective, quick and easy.

valid point about Red Bull being over 1024 - sloppy designing. We still do everything at 1000 px.

I like the Mclaren site. During the race weekends the dashboard was really good.

Are we voting for the worst, or best?
Title says both, yet we can only vote on one.

I voted McLaren for worst, yet suspect others have voted McLaren for best - on the same poll.
