Kimi -110
Hamilton -109
Alosno-109
Massa 94
oh btw only reason why kimi won the championship , is because massa car surprisingly slowed down. which allowed kimi to pass. guess either A. Team orders or B. the common ferrari engine always breaking.

3. guess if massa would of won the championship, he would only have a 1 point lead over hamilton. so i guess hamilton didnt have any skills to be kneck to kneck to massa.

oh btw for 2008, massa won 6 races and hamilton won 5. i guess skill wasnt the reason why hamilton won 5 races.


i love hamilton haters, love replying to their comments. makes the day interesting

but jokes aside, its good seeing you back bse50
Glad to be back from the dead
Anyway i'm not saying that Hamilton is not a good driver, i simply think that he's not the champion they want to show!
When he shared the team with Alonso the latter was always whining about different treatments etc so i don't know how much that 50% more number of wins (4 against 2) is due to drivers abilities.
Again it is my opinion, Hamilton is an aggressive driver and i like that but he still strives to emerge when the situation is not optimal.

Schumacher holds many records and ASH8 is right in that. He also had the opportunity to race against Senna, making him nervous.
I like them all but my favourite one still is Villeneuve. Matter of attitude, he always tried to arrive 1st. Favoring a retirement while chasing the 1st instead of a 2nd place. Now that's a real champion!

i had to erase everything else, because all i read was blah blabh blah . but yep villeneuve is one of my favs also. as for senna, i i liked him alot, but not as much as my japanese counterparts. but in japan he was consider as a god. i remember when he died, all my classmates that where girls where crying. i remember my friend kiyomi was like balling, i thought something bad happen to her, that is when i found out senna died. it was the same year kurt curbain died i believe.




that reminds me, didnt last week they had reports thta Nico was in talks with BMW, and Mclaren. guess he might take Kovalien (how ever you spell that name) spot.

quick questions for the elite ferrari fans here. i have been checking out alot of the F1 forums out there, and of course there is a tons of threads about MS vs Hamilton. So since ferrari fans are like a dime a dozen these days, they feel that hamilton is going to be owned this coming race.

so my question is, WHAT IF hamilton out races MS, what would be the excuse you guys will come up with ? since all the elite ferrari fans seems pretty confident that hamilton will lose to the (sarcastic cough) legend MS.

I don't expect MS to win. Like I said before, I do expect top 5 or 6 from him. I also don't expect him to beat Ham. He is a place keeper. He's just there to gain points for the team and keep their 3rd place.

As a Schumacher fan, I am absolutely stoked about this. It is the best think that has happened to F1 in a while. However, he does have a lot to lose. If he fails to keep win his reputation will be tarnished. Concurrently, should he win, then it could just reaffirm the legend. It is a huge gamble in a car that is less then superior. I wonder if ferrari will no longer be giving up on the F60 in order to help Schumacher win...-

good post btw. but yah i really hope that ferrari doesnt give up on the F60 . i was pretty disappointed with them, when they annonced they where giving up on the 09 car. I can see honda or toyota doing that, but teams like mclaren and ferrari are not the type of teams that quit. i really want to see the silver knights vs the flamers in red again.

Has MS got a chance to win? I don't really think so. He was the fastest during this years tests with old cars. Yep, the fastest one out there. For a lap!
A race is way longer than a lap and i think that his age might really play a role considering the reflexes and his neck shape. Also, he was the fastest one during the last drivers go kart race as well... but then again that is not a grand prix!

Lets keep in mind people that McLaren have made huge improvements lately. The silver car > the red car, at the moment.

Even if Schumi was at his prime he would have a hard time keeping Hamilton behind him now. Same would go for Alonso if he was placed in the red car.

Now I have to admit I don't know the Valencia track layout and cannot predict if it will be KERS friendly or not. If it is not KERS friendly we have Red Bull and Brawn back in the mix. And even Williams are showing some fangs...

I so look forward to the next race and after Hamilton I will be rooting for Schumacher in the little red car. Go forth and kick ***! :-)

And on a final note, even if this does not go well: I am very impressed with Schumi for raising to the challenge out of loyalty to Ferrari. He has his reputation to lose and nothing to win by this. And still he is competing. Big kudos for that loyalty!

Btw, is it heresy to root for both a McLaren and a Ferrari in the same race?

Your nuts will fall while you poo.

No, really. It is going to be an interesting race and i really want to see what the old schumi can do against younger drivers! The best thing would be for him to kick Alonso straight in the butt after the 2 lost championships
He left F1 as a loser in the end, even if he won more than everybody else!
Time will tell, we might also see a schumi-hawkins out there as alfy photochopped!

Remember that "little kids" are a lot lighter than a grown man. That makes a lot of difference in a cart.

Hehehe me too. Actually since I am Swedish I am obliged to root a bit for our Finnish neighbors.

Damn Alfy, this is not good. We are showing Ferrari tendencies. I must go to a medieval-style church and whip myself with a cat-o-nine-tails.

its all massa fault. if he didnt get hurt, i wouldnt be showing my true nature. now the elite ferrari fans can use this weakness against us. we shall retreat for the time being and regather our men. the time will come when we the Silver Knight will reclaim the throne, until then stay safe. The sith will not give up on hunting us down. Stay strong and may the force be with you
