I often feel sorry for Nick Heidfeld. He was much celebrated when he came to F1, and touted as a next-generation McLaren driver, having driven for their Formula 3000 programme. However his junior teammate, Kimi Raikonnen got picked over him, and became world champion. Now, he's being overshadowed by another young gun, Robert Kubica, and everyone think's he's past it. Every success he has will keep critics quiet for that little bit longer and give him confidence for the future.
