    Unfortunately, he has a good chance of winning the WDC. I hate to say he is probably more consistent than Kimi and Massa (hope I'm wrong).

    ...Hamilton is not THAT consistant, I saw many of his turns very "a la Massa" only his built in TC is better...he´s even PRONE to bad luck...lets give him bad mojo!

    I guess it pays to drive for a team that manufactures exotic sportscars. Imagine the perks at the other teams! Poor Giancarlo, instead of Spykers, Force India can only give him one of those 3 wheel scooter taxis...adorned with rubies! LOL

    What are the odds now that Kimi is promised an F50 GT if he wins?

    Considering there's only three in the world not very high :)

    They don't, and according to Wikipedia they only produced 5 F1 LM's out of the 100 F1's produced total. I know that Ralph Lauren owns one of the LM's.

    They are in private hands..not sure they care about the title that much to part away with such an amazing machine.

    I thought I heard somewhere that McLaren were distancing themselves from the McLaren F1 due to their heavy partnership with Mercedes....and the McLaren F1 using a BMW engine.

    Kimi is now in contact with Force India for a contract for next year, salary is rumored to be life's supply of alcohol :)

    He should have stayed with McLaren and their Johnny Walker sponsor then.
    :)

    BTW: Speaking of Force India, not doing so hot so far. Remember the goal was to beat two teams. So far they haven't beaten anybody.

    I feel bad for Heikki completely ignored and disregarded at McLaren. I really hope that he can beat Hammy this year, so next year we have the Twin Finn team at Ferrari when Massa leaves.

    Probably should have just gone to NASCAR and taken Dale Jr.'s old car.
