And he's not angry anymore after DNF.
He's persuading himself by saying that Ferrari's gonna make it up to him next year.

If McLaren does not solve this problem fast...clearly next season and 2008 will be a Ferrari whitewash.

Fisi in Renault needs a lot of thing to do.

2007 and 2008 season will be Ferrari's whitewash.
The only thing to see for McLaren is Alonso's downfall with a crappy car.
And what the 2nd driver can achieve.

The 2nd car were better IMHO in terms of performance.
Why huh?

It will be pretty hard to gauge who will have the best car for 2007, although Ferarri have a distinct advantage since they have been running on Bridgetone tyres for like forever ,and they have the FIA by the balls.

I refuse to count Mclaren out, reason being they are Mclaren , yes they have a crap car but if havin a crap car can put them them 3rd in the constructors championship...it cant be all that bad.

Red Bull, Williams,and possibly Honda could spring a suprise.

My money is Kimi in a Ferrari and Alonso in the Mclaren. (even if it is a crappy car)
I dont see Massa threatening Kimi , ie like Massa didnt threaten Michael.

No disrespect but when competiting...competiting to win...that's the best motivation.

From what I heard from the PC after Kimi wins in Suzuka 2005, he had an engine change sweat.gif and then drop 10 places.


Hope he can do better this time.

In the wet, it's Michelin turn.
If it's drying upafter wet, back to Bridgestone.

QUOTE(linkinstreet @ Oct 8 2006, 08:35 PM)
Well, I think that was why Ron wanted Fernando. He has that Schumacher like ability to help his engineer and lift their spirit, the one thing that lacks in Kimi. Ron really would have wnted Kimi to partner Alonso, but the car's lack of pace this season is too much for him. We won't win the title next season, that's for sure as Adrian is too much for us to replace, but we might be in the running the next season. With Hamilton in tow, we could have the best partnership in F1.

but, if what Alonso say this few days (bashing everyone including his team and
Fisi) I doubt he's gonna make any good impact at McLaren.

Who knows Lewis will threatened Alonso in McLaren.
We'll see whether he can do better than Rosberg (GP2 champ) in F1.
Williams Cosworth will be Williams Toyota next season.

McLaren might not have a chance to win a GP this season. so sad.. They are just not compettitive season. There are a few key staffs who left the team and definitely McLaren has a slower progress compared to others.

Renault gonna struggle next season with Fisi since he's not as fast as Alonso.
Anyway, exciting 2007 season ahead.

Who will give an early warning.
Kimi in a Ferrari or Alonso in a McLaren.
Or maybe the Renault, Williams-Toyota? tongue.gif

I guess Alonso and Kimi as well as Hakkinen are very different people.
Some got nice attitude and some does not.
Same here la in LYN laugh.gif
Some has were nice and some.....brows.gif

I guess we'll prefer people who were the same attitude as us.

Surprised with Alonso though.
Alex Yoong says Alonso were a quite and shy guy.
Now...'besar kepala' already?

We'll see what kind of impact Alonso bring to McLaren.
Silap haribulan Lewis Hamilton is the one that turn around McLaren tongue.gif

Go Kimi tongue.gif
*Kimi's the 1st Finn driver for Ferrari correct?

IMHO, of all his (Alonso) acts with Robert Doornbos etc. made it easy for us to believe that Alonso did blame the team and his team mate.

Imagine how would we face our friend after we lash him in public shakehead.gif
How do you do that? doh.gif
For hipocrite maybe.

I sure can't.

QUOTE(linkinstreet @ Oct 9 2006, 06:48 PM)
And yet, he did change the whole renault team. No disrespecting Flav, but compare him to Fisi, and you'll see why. He is very close to his engineers, and that gave them the confidence to win. Notice that he can have a faster car than Fisi, even tho he is driving the same thing?
Kimi's strength is that he can take any car, give him any setup and he can find the best and fastest way to drive the car. Not many ppl had that ability, and that's why Monty was lagging so much behind him. It was also why even tho he had limited single seater experience, he can still be fast. Fernando meanwhile is kinda like Schummi in a way, he can't drive a car that is bad with the setup, but he can quickly find what's wrong and tell his engineers what to do.
*
*i prefer explanation like this, straight to the point and easy to understand.
Overall, very informative. Rather than crappin pointless.


I guess.
Good point.
I'll keep this in mind.

Michael did the same thing with Ferrari correct?
So does Senna.

I guess some drivers were gifted with differ abilities.

How about Senna?
How's he like?
I wish to read about it.

By the way, the seat given to Kimi at McLaren was originally for Alex Wurz tongue.gif
Wurz was so frustrated when he did not get in McLaren.

Now Wurz will drive for Williams next season.
Some say he's pretty good...we'll watch his performance.

Now 27...a lot of time to collect World Champion titles smile.gif
That is if he wish to stay long in F1.
But I reckoned he's not like Michael which wish to broke records etc.
I think Kimi will quit when he's 32.

Michael won his first at the age of 24/25 in 1994.
Controversial...a lot of it.

QUOTE
1994

Schumacher won his first World Championship in 1994 while driving for Benetton, in a controversial season marred by allegations of cheating and the deaths of Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger at the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola.

Schumacher started the season strongly, winning six of the first seven races. Schumacher's domination was a surprise to the other teams, some of which levelled allegations of cheating. They claimed Benetton had found a way to violate the FIA-imposed ban on electronic aids, including Traction Control and Launch Control. On investigation, the FIA discovered "start sequence" (launch control) software in the Benetton cars, and a variety of illegal software in rival teams' cars as well. FIA had no evidence the software was ever used, so teams found with the software received little to no punishment. No traction control software was found to be in the Benetton cars, however. Additionally, while Schumacher managed to claim 66 points in 7 races(70 possible points), his teammates only managed to make a single point in the very same amount of races. Flavio Briatore, who is currently the chief of Ferrari's biggest rivals, said that Benetton never used any illegal software, and the only thing Benetton was guilty of was being too successful for too young of a team.

After Senna's death, Damon Hill inherited the responsibility of fighting for the championship for the Williams team. Despite Hill having the superior car, he struggled to keep pace with Schumacher. Due to several mid-season controversial disqualifications and bans for Schumacher, however, he began to close the gap in the standings. In the British Grand Prix, Schumacher was penalised for overtaking on the formation lap. He then ignored the penalty and the subsequent black flag during the race, for which he was disqualified and later given a two-race ban. Benetton blamed the fiasco on a communication error between the stewards and the team. Schumacher was also disqualified after winning the Spa after his car was found to have illegal wear on its skidblock. Benetton protested that the skidblock had been damaged when Schumacher spun over a kerb, but the FIA rejected their appeal, allowing Hill to close the points gap even further.

Leading by a single point going into the final race in Australia, Schumacher clinched the title after colliding with Hill in a controversial incident, taking both drivers out
