F1 2008

Seriaas... so what do you have to say about Hamilton beating the mighty Alonso? Oh... double standards lol.
 
where did he beat him?

they finished on the same points

considering that hamilton got treated as the no1 driver it makes sense he would do better

no respect in that mclaren outfit
 
Hey killa, like I said, double standards... you are quick to point out goal difference in footy... lol.
He deserves no respect in any outfit - he thinks he's the gift... btw, I used to be an alonso supporter till his second year at Renault.

Me too, actually I think he behaved like a spoilt little kid driving for Mclaren. He wasn't really up to the challenge posted by Lewis, instead of letting his driving do the talking he became a defensive little twat, hardly the temperament of a champion. I lost huge respect for him since then... (not that he cares)...

As I said, over rated... Hakkinen and Coultard have won more races for Mclaren than Kimi has... 2005 Ferrari was rubbish, so no kudu's for Mclaren and Kimi there...Not a single win for Kimi in 2006 and only 1 win in 2004 and only 1 win in 2003 and 0 wins in 2002!!!!

Do you remember the pace of a certain pair of Renault's in 2005? That is who Kimi and the rest of the field were competing against.

Also, look at what position McLaren were in when Mika and DC drove for them? DC, should've had at least one championship too but only Mika could get the job done when it counted.
 
brad you can have a normal life at 37

if he wanted a normal life why did he go racing in other forms :)

maybe he likes different challenges
 
I wonder if the loss of traction control has really affected Massa more so than the other "top" drivers. He has had two spins in two races which both would probably have been avoided had TC been there. Massa came into F1 in 2001 when TC was 1st introduced so he has not driven an f1 car without tc until this season. The loss of TC gives more control to the driver, so maybe Massa is not as good as previously thought?

The thought of Alonso joining Kimi at Ferrari is ludicrous and tantalizing at the same time. Massa's poor form and the fact that his manager is looking to buy Torro Rosso, along with Alonso's clear intentions of wanting to join Ferrari makes for interesting reading. I'd be surprised if Massa stays a race driver at Ferrari until 2010.
 
dude they would have tested and tested and tested their cars without tc

one commentator did mention he can like to go sleep and that has been happening
 
What? Clearly he has not tested enough then. who "can like to go to sleep"? Massa? If so, that reemphasizes my point. Massa is not as good as he is made out to be. If you look back at all the great drivers, their rookie season were generally very impressive. Massa's was unspectacular to say the least, filled with accidents and incidents. Every race he has won has been from poll position most likely leading from flag to flag. This is no coincidence. He is not a racer's racer. Thinking back off the top of my head I can recall a move on Hamilton last year Malaysia and being passed by alonso during nurburgring last year which made me cringe. Lets get a driver who can RACE. Sebastien Vettel for 09!! :D

That's exactly the reason Killa - normal life ;)
It's about the celebrity status and all that legend stuff... different pressure from work... less stress. The guy can still enjoy racing and all that.

mmm I'm not convinced, Mika competes in DTM and I believe it enjoys quite a fanatical fan base too... It seems he considered returning to F1 on a number of occasions. In fact if Mclaren hadn't signed Lewis they might have signed Mika.
