    Ferrari's Fernando Alonso feels Kimi Raikkonen is no quicker than Felipe Massa | Ferrari | Formula 1 news, live F1 | ESPN.co.uk

    IF Kimi does beat him Alonso is going to look mighty stupid.

    What I posted in the Massa doesnt suck thread---

    'This is all about the simmering political feud for control( or loss of it) by Fernando via LdM. More of this and I will be somewhat convinced he is looking to leave very seriously.'

    FA making a point to LdM. Very entertaining. FA is almost rebelling LOL!

    Oh dear, I was afraid he would going to say this.

    He's either trying to help Felipe or piss off Kimi, or both

    Mark my words. Next year will be alonsos last with the scuderia. A time will come where alonso isnt given preferential treatment and it went end in a massive blow up. Alonso will leave and go back to mclaren.

    Uh oh.
    Is dear Alonso reverting to form?
    I was hoping that he'd put those insecurities behind him. Perhaps the experience with Lewis at McLaren left scars deeper than I thought.

    Kimi will take total ownership of this Spanish terd. Period. Even drunk and probably high, Kimi will be faster.

    Yup,

    There's many things Alonso is or has: fantastic driver, great development driver, great spacial awareness/racecraft.

    Being a respectable human being (as evidenced by his public actions over the years) is not one of them.

    This really seems like FA's standard tricks (such as this) plays into the hands of KR. The best thing you can do is motivate him by this type of challenge. Also I feel that sometimes FA tells to the press what HE needs to believe in order to manage himself. This might be a bit of both.

    Hopefully the politics, because we know the racing won't be!

    Could be the case, I do fear Freddy is a little fragile around a strong fast team mate.

    I was really hoping that he was over that.
    I wonder if Luca & Co. saw it coming and just said "eff him".

    Why is everybody overreacting?

    If you read the whole article vs just pulling out a single line out of context, he simply goes onto praising Massa (as he should for a longtime and still teammate) and also outlines how together with Kimi they will be able to motivate and elevate the team, as well as bring home more points next season.

    Some of the comments in here are getting more and more stupider. I'm marking all of them, and when next season happens I'm going to call out your stupidity.

    What did he say that wasn't true? Kimi wasn't that much quicker if he was even quicker at all than Massa was when they were teammates. Alonso will take Kimi. Probably pretty handily.

    I'am sure Luca knew what he was dealing with from the get-go.

    It would surprise no one if it ended in tears again.
