    No question Ferrari has the best and most talented driver combo, but the better question is if they're going to deliver. Their best chance is 2014, and happens to be the year the new engine regs take place. Unless they have a turd, Ferrari should at least get the WCC. If a rivalry develops (very likely), it usually starts affecting the team/teammates at least on the second year IMO, hence 2014 being the year all planets seem to be aligned in Ferrari's favor. We'll see. Both WCC and WDC should be MUCH closer than it has been in the last few years, especially the WCC.

    I really, really hope Ferrari gives these guys a fantastic car next year. This driver combo SHOULD be lethal on the track, but the Newey machine is just too damn good. I have no doubt that with a fast car these two could knock Vettel out of the running.

    Next year should be good.

    Just looking at Kimi makes me laugh. The guy is awesome. Drunk, sarcastic, flippant, pure perfection.

    I hope the F.A. and Kimi duo end the Vettle era.

    Kimi/Alonso is certainly a stronger pairing than Hamilton/Rosberg but Alonso didn't fare well with Hamilton and he won't fare well with Kimi who I think will infuriate him even moreso.

    I don't know about certainly better, I'd say very similar, Kimi can go of the radar in the race and Nico can.

    Kimi I'd give the edge certainly since his come back, but we will have to wait with bated breath, however its nice to look forward to, the Redbull domination is boring me.

    That makes me happy.

    Although I'm a firm believer that forced apologies are a bunch of horse**** as it's not sincere, full props to Kimi for getting it from the biggest ego in F1.

    Holey-moley!.....

    Ferrari's latest "teamwear" catalog has t-shirts etc in *blue* to, it seems, celebrate the return of Ice!....

    Have they ever done anything *not* primarily red previously?

    What's next, blue cars!? :eek:

    Cheers,

    Thats true. This collection is perfectly timed with the arrival of your new machine! Red is so 1967 or so. Blue is the choice of a new generation of repeat Ferrari F1 drivers. :)

    Dayum!.... I knew there had to be a better reason for 'em going blue!.......

    :)

    I almost (but not quite) feel I haven't owned one as all mine have been different colors, and not one red one along the way. ;)

    As DF1 noted, "we don't need no resale red!"......

    :D

    Cheers,
    Ian
