I've always been a fan of the sport above any particular team, brand or driver. But if i had to pick one it would be mclaren. For their roots, their history and the drivers that have raced for them. Can't wait to see how Lando and Danny get on with the Mercedes engine moving forward
Mine is mcl but i will always have a soft sport for ferrari. Reason being? Alonso was and always will be my favourite driver so that's the reasoning behind it. But as i only got into f1 at the 2012 belguim gp i dont have the same soft spot for ren even tho alonso won his titles with them

I love Alonso. 8 points away from being a 5 time champion. On pure driving ability he's one of the all time greats. I think Lewis is an ever so slightly more complete f1 driver, but I'm nit picking to separate them. So happy he's back next year
Red bull for two reasons. Love the drink. Verstappen drives for them and he’s been my favourite driver ever since i found out he was the youngest ever driver in the sport.
Alpha Tauri because it was Minardi and they are doing great with their ressources + car design ( Torro Rosso always made beautiful cars)
And i have to say that i like the Honda engine (even when they were in the back with MCL). They never give up and i'm sure they will be the next big engine, fighting against Mercedes.

I agree, I've always had a passion for Honda. My earliest memories of racing are the Honda v12 monsters they had in the McLaren. Honda will get the engine right in the end and properly challenge Mercedes
McLaren is a close second, but I have to go with red bull due to the fact I love their personnel, I love Honda, I love the drink and I like verstappen (no not in that way)

In a roundabout way, Mercedes stemmed from the old Honda works team. They became Brawn when Honda pulled the plug, then Mercedes bought it. Same factory, probably mostly the same personnel at lower levels...

I know not many people will say Mercedes, because their general domination for 7 years (Well, 2018 you could argue the Ferrari was at least as fast) has made the sport boring. This is true, but to stay at the top for so long, with the target on their back, is massively impressive. It's not just the car. It's the team, the working ethic, the way it's come together to become this winning machine, and then they've got the best driver of this generation, an all time great, driving it. They have to be respected for it, considering Ferrari and Red Bull spend a similar amount, and Ferrari couldn't even beat them with a 'questionable' engine with 50 extra horsepower.
Part of the reason Mercedes have been especially dominant this season is that they managed to almost match the power of the dodgy Ferrari engine, without being in murky territory on legality. Meanwhile Ferrari have dropped to a level below what Mercedes were making last season.
It's good to see that Renault appear to have made some gains in the recent races engine wise
