Alonso has/had some petty crazy zoo like animal celebrations when he was acting like a monkey. It was quite entertaining. Now Mods please let's not block me it's not an insult towards Alonso. I know the mods are in love with Alonso

And yet on GP4, Alex Yoong is much better.

I never respected Alonso because of his childish behavior in formula 1 and how he tries to put others down just so he can have the entire team around him. Now needless to say he still is a great driver so MOD'S don't ban me LOL.

@thehabsonice: I kinda agree to that!! and i think it makes sense for them this year but i have heard that the car was designed for Massa only in 2008. Now that wouldnt make sense. Kimi was WDC. Why would ferarri take such a chance. I am a huge kimi fan but in my opinion he lost the WDC due to his ...

That is a good point and I believe that it really depends. Take Ferrari for instance, I do beieve that at the moment they are completely designing the car around Alonso and it does show in the standings. Initially when Alonso had joined Massa was pretty close to him. Not anymore. Now on the other ha...

thehabsonice

As of now I would say probably Perez lol, that's probably why he will be Massa's replacement

thehabsonice

I would def. go back and watch Gilles Villeneuve race, one of the most exciting driers of all time. I wasn't alive when he was racing!

thehabsonice

Vettel and Kimi are the most electrifying to watch!

thehabsonice

I don't think that there is ANY possibility that Ferrari will put someone alongside Alonso that will be able to beat him consistently aka: Kimi and Schumi, I think they are looking for a good 2nd driver, someone that can always finish a spot or two behind Alonso, so I voted Perez, it could also be K...

I find it amazing that so many people think Hamilton might go to Ferrari next year. Even people who's opinions I generally respect in here have said this. I see no way that Hamilton will drive for Ferrari in the near future. Regardless of what Alonso might say in the press, knowing his track record...

thehabsonice

I have always said that Ferrari will never hire a driver that is able to beat Alonso so forget Kimi, Hamilton and Vettel at the moment. Vettel will be the driver replacing Alonso at Ferrari once his contract is up!

It's looking good for Perez and Alguesari maybe even Sutil!

thehabsonice

They may have both been at 49/50 races with comprable podiums and poles - but by this time Kimi was a Ferrari WDC and 2 time WCC winner. Alonso has nothin' in that regard. So I'm afraid at this juncture, all else equal, it is: Kimi 1/3 and 2/3; Alonso 0/2 and 0/2 If they'd of kept Kimi, they'd have...

thehabsonice

Jean Todt was the best ALL TIME at the moment, probably Christian Horner and Martin Witmarsh!

thehabsonice

def vettel 100% no questions asked

thehabsonice

Jacques Villeneuve
Kimi Raikkonen
Sebastian Vettel

Kimi wants to do the Rally of Finland; http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/99777 and Lotus' response: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/99822 Both reports within a few hours of each other 8O No WRC drives for Kimi this year then :nod: ayyyyy it seems like Kimi is jumping wagons ag...

Let me see, who shall I believe?

No we are not, but clearly Massa is not the GREAT driver Alonso says he is lol... you have got to be kidding me this is actually hilarious

thehabsonice

Yeah, I think if Alonso had a half decent team mate, ferrarti would think twice about keeping him!

Leen26 wrote:Alonso should be the team principal and not stupid Dominicali

He really acts professionally and releases professional press statements.

And if he says this, he's just adding credit to himself in a smart way, if Massa is one of the best, what does that make him?

Honda might have stayed, Alonso won 2009 wdc and things would be alot different...

no Honda would never have stayed, believe me!

sure Alonso, Massa is one of the best at playing the SUPPORT ROLE, and bending down to you anytime you want!

LMAOO ROOOOFL

thehabsonice

good for them lol, they still won't be fighting for wins :) They already won :) Anyway I like this bit: Red Bull's Dr Helmut Marko agrees: "It looks like Lotus are the quickest." Veteran Swiss correspondent Roger Benoit wrote in Blick newspaper: "Lotus, with Kimi Raikkonen in super shape, is the ch...

thehabsonice

It's very clear to me now. Kimi probably hates testing, and doesn't enjoy anything but racing. And this team is giving him what he wants. He's happy, they're happy. End of story Since he joined Lotus played a huge role to try to amend his reputation and the crap he got as a result from his tenor at...

thehabsonice

I think you guys have it wrong and you are looking into this too much! Kimi is the #1 driver at Lotus and they hired him because he is the best and fastest driver on the grid! Remember that the team put in orders in Bahrain to let him through (although not right away but they still did it)! Kimi pro...

good for them lol, they still won't be fighting for wins

thehabsonice

lol I really am starting to find these funny

thehabsonice

You are making a lot of assumptions when you suggest the number of WDCs he would have had staying at McLaren. Remember, McLaren was not exactly a "fertile ground" for Alonso... hence he left. What makes you think that suddenly Dennis would have changed how he felt about Alonso, and vise-versa? By t...

thehabsonice

I voted 3, both Mclarens and either Seb or Kimi.

Why would Lotus consider Jaime over Kimi? Doesn't make sense. I remember Kimi telling the deal was done before Brazil

Exactly, the drivers would have been Kimi and Alguesari lol.

thehabsonice

Where is the intent? Where is the leadership? A team without intent is indeed worthless. Alonso should juts leave them. Being from sub continent I cannot speak about the commercial mileage but result wise santander have splurged money for getting Zero returns so far. What exactly are McLaren and Re...

Here you go :) http://64.imagebam.com/download/jMSx6Pqz90ps7_SjAm42Gg/18743/187428151/h.gif This shows me how great Kimi is. Compare his attitude: he was stuck behind grosjean for a few laps did not complain once to his team. Where as Alonso would have complained at least 3x a lap to be let through!

thehabsonice

With the current Ferrari management, I can honestly believe that. but he is in his prime. He's 31, in my book that's beginning to sound "he's towards the end of his prime". Add 2 years and things will not be so positive, the future will not be so bright. This 2012 season is blown - no matter how go...

thehabsonice

do you guys know how much Kimi is making this year?

thehabsonice

I agree with everything that you mentioned but remember one thing. Hamilton was in his rookie season in 07 and he beat Alonso. I believe in 08 he would have beaten Alonso by an even greater margin (more than 0 points lol) It's funny people keep bringing this up when Fernando has beaten Hamilton for...

thehabsonice

He shouldn't have thrown his toys out of the pram at McLaren. If he'd just accepted that the team wasn't going to revolve around him as it did at Renault then I believe he would have won the title in '07 and '08. He missed out in '07 by a point, and that was despite losing the moral support of the ...

I believe the best thing he could have done was stay at mclaren. Now I'm also going to say that he deserves the situation he is in. Needless to say Alonso is a pretty good driver, the problem being that in 2007 he did not want to accept that his team mate was beating him on several occasions and whe...
