    drama!

    will Alonso turn into a whiny little girl and sabotage the team?

    will Kimi get bored and have Ferrari pay for him to go race in NASCAR and WRC again?

    stay tuned for the exciting conclusion of "As The Scuderia Turns"!

    :eek:

    Could you just, for once, do at least something like us continentals do?

    (In fact, what is important is Maranello's time, and 13:00 was 1h26mn ago...)

    Massa's eight year run at Ferrari is over. Came within a corner of winning the WDC in 2008 but in reality hasn't done much since. The injury in 2009 may have affected him but other drivers have been through worse and have come back to win. IMHO Phil just wasn't fast/ aggressive on race day. In brazil 2010 when Schumey out qualified phil in the pos
    MB I knew Phil had lost something. It was his home gp and he'd always do well there. In the end LDM is right-drivers come and go, some apparently return, but Ferrari remains....

    Sorry old chap, couldn't possibly. That'd be far too convenient for you Continental types. ;)

    :D

    If ol' SebVet's reign isn't over at least they'll be some great battles behind. Maybe the Scuderia can have KR FA tie for second. ;)

    Oh I agree, Massa's not the same driver he was back before the accident. He's not pulling his weight. I'd like to see him partner Webber at Porsche driving sports cars.

    However, I don't ever see Kimi changing. He beats to his own drum and when he's not happy, he "loses motivation." I would much rather see Ferrari bring in a younger driver to groom and/or play second fiddle to Alonso than throw someone in the second set prone to lackluster performances if he has to sign one too many autographs.

    And then subsequently **** the bed for a couple of years. Let's not forget it was less his driving a more the failure of another team that back him into the WDC.

    Well, that other team was stealing Ferrari intellectual property at the time, so it was closer than it should have been. ;)

    All the best,

    Yeah, I like Kimi but in the grand scheme of things, I'm not sure this will work out well. LdM said himself when asked about the possibility of hiring Vettel, he responded with something like, "I don't want two roosters in my pen". Well, Kimi is a rooster and he won't back down.

    I guess when you're in the position Ferrari is, you just have to roll the dice. :eek:
