World Champion again next year!! I would like to see that!!

Choosing drivers? I think Mr.Dennis should be wise enough not to lose a few more key technical ppl in the team.. He shd think wisely..

Kimi is luckless!! Poor old Kimi!! Pedro DLR has much better luck and he did much better than Kimi even though his skills are not so good.

And due to the erratic Mr.Dennis, the technical staffs always change. Just take a look at the car nose design..They changed to slim aligator style a couple of years ago. A whole buch of gremlins appeared. Then, change to wide nose again (almost won) and then, back to aligator style again this year. At the launch of this year's machine, I already know McLaren is going to wait for another year to challenge for the crown. That design simply doesn't work!!

I just don't get it.. You see sometimes McLarens are so good and then, they flop the year after. After that, they come back into play again. Very flambuoyant. Somehow I think they are a big team but they do not know how to capitalise on their resources such as money and skills. They hv abundance of sponsors but they do not spend more on researches. There is another factor though... the politics in F1 and FIA. Sincerely, I felt the two parties are more Ferrari (specifically, M.Schumacher) sided. We hv seen too many things where the two old men doing things in favour of the Italian team. This is such a big hindrance for McLaren to win!!

Yeah.. You say I m clueless.. It is ok.. But why FIA sided Ferrari and Todt. Why not Mclaren and Dennis? What happened in the middle? Why Ferrari get all the benefits?

Yeah..You are rite.. very sick already.. The interest in watching F1 has decreased. The mass damper issue was the latest joke..

Well, certainly I hope McLarens will improve in Italy.. Monza is a circuit technically for high speed. McLarens do not seem to have enough power in straight line but I hope they have improved on that. If not, we won't be able to see them giving a good fight with Ferrari, Renault and Honda.

That was a stunning lap by Kimi. No one expected that!! I am going to pray hard for Kimi. Really hope that he can win tomorrow's race.

Yea.. I gotta say I will need some time to get used to the red outfit that Kimi wear next year.. It will never be the same again at McLaren. I really hope Kimi will make a U-turn on his decision.

Well, Mika was one of the best and he will be remembered as the driver who beat Michael. He is also the original Flying Finn. This nick was not used before his time. He certainly deserves that nick. Hopefully, Kimi will be able to follow his footsteps. Just a sad thing that Kimi does not become a champ with McLaren.

Well, it is very hard to predict Lewis Hamilton's performance. There a lot of racers who didn't do well in F1. I hope he can race well and give McLaren something to cheer about.

Yea..the record already give some confidence. Ferrari, by far, has the biggest budget. The No.1 driver also get fat cash and good car. These certainly looks very attractive to Kimi. Hopefully, Apelonso wont be another Montoya.. If he really speaks 'funny', it will be very embarrassing for Mclaren.

Haha..He might not wear Tag Heuer. Then we might also see Kimi's face at Shell petrol stations.

Oh ..I remember.. That was Siemens advertisement.. There were a few versions.. One was the Coulthard going to the barber..

I think he did.. but for a very short period only.. got tv ad some more ..he spoke german in the ad.

I think most of the McLaren fans are more driver sided.. I think we are both thinking the same way.. ha ha..

I also cannot get the meaning of the advertisement.. photocopier? Can anyone explain?

KR & MS are good drivers but we really cannot compare about KR getting WDC faster than MS did in Ferrari... cars, technologies and rules are all different.. Anyway, we shd sit back and enjoy the remaining 2 races in 2006 and wait for 2007.

Wow.. That's great.. Let's see what Lewis can do if he races in China.. Usually, a new driver will show whatever they have to prove that they can race and I like that..
