I think attitude was briefly mentioned by a previous poster, but I'd like to expand on it. Remember that the driver is one of the most visible members of the team (much like the lead singer of a band). Everyone does a lot of work both on the robot and on strategy, but the driver is the one out in front of everyone representing the team. It's important that he or she be humble and not cocky. I wouldn't want a driver who is a sore loser or an ungrateful winner. Basically, the driver should be a gracious professional. The attitude of a driver could be the difference between getting picked as an alliance partner and being passed over.

Mike
