Honestly, Kimi has a better driver in him.
Also, he has better racing achievements in the past.
Anything can happen.
We'll just have to see.

F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone is considering changing the points-system in 2008 in order to give race winners a bigger advantage.
At present drivers who win a grand prix score 10 points, while the second-placed finisher bags eight. However, under Ecclestone's new proposal the race winner would score more then 10 points, while the gap to second place would be greater than the current two points. "With second place getting eight points it is not right that the winner takes only ten," the 76-year-old reportedly told the English press. He added: "For 2008 I will propose a change." |

With the new points system, 1st (winner of GP) and 2nd place will have no much difference.
Unless 1st compare to 3rd place and below. This post has been edited by Raikkonen: Mar 12 2007, 06:57 PM |

Renault cannot win in Aussie GP
Pat Symonds admits this year's Australian GP victory is out of reach for Renault's two drivers. Although Renault won the Melbourne event the past two years running, the Anglo/French squad concedes that they are not in a position to claim a third successive victory. They have struggled for pace in pre-season testing, with Giancarlo Fisichella recently revealing that their new car, the R27, is as much as half a second off the pace of the Ferraris and McLarens. And it's because of their lack of pace that Symonds admits Renault are unlikely to win this Sunday's race. "I think we are being realistic about our performance at the moment. We know we are not in the same position as we were twelve months ago," Symonds said. "But we were encouraged by the results of our final pre-season test in Bahrain. There are still areas to work on in order to improve the car, and we know what we have to do. "We expect 2007 to be a tough battle - but we are ready for the fight." However, for the Melbourne race, Fisichella says Renault will most likely be fighting for a podium finish, and not the race victory. "If we cannot fight for the win, I will be trying to out-score my rivals, and finish on the podium if it is possible," the Roman said. He added: "I want to score as many points as possible in the early races of the year." Renault's second driver this year with Finnish rookie Heikki Kovalainen, who is hoping for a fault-less start to his F1 career and maybe even a few points. "I am expecting a tough race. I am preparing for every possibility, and I know that I will have to push right to the limit," he said. "With the team, we will have to find the perfect set-up for the R27 to get maximum potential out of the car. "From a personal point of view, I want to get to the finish without any problems and finish in the points. I think that would be a good start." |

Some races are already boring because of the current points system. The fact that there were more exciting races back then when the points system was 10-6-4-3-2-1 proves that. It gives incentive for drivers to go for a race win instead of playing it safe.i prefer the current system more because it gives more drivers points. I've always think it's unfair that drivers that finish 9th and below scores nothing. Why should drivers that finish 9th and below be given points?? I think finishing 8th and getting points is already being very generous. This is a competitive sport not a free points candy store. This post has been edited by verx: Mar 13 2007, 10:39 AM |
