We need to stop using the word 'hater'. Its old and useless. Not everyone likes every driver. A difference of opinion is not 'hate'. Enough. FA is great driver and when faced with real inside team competition he folded like a beach chair at the end of the summer in Cannes and left. His major sponsor stayed at Mclaren. That says it all. Thats not hate. Its my opinion and based on facts. He left Mclaren after 1 year rather than face LH again. He is not perfect no matter how great.
No we don't, and you're an Alonso hater. Always have been, you may as well deal with it. While I'm at it, you're the one that goes on and on about how everyone needs to stop "hating" Massa and Vettel. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. You know what's old and useless? Talking about LH and Alonso in 2007. Sheesh, going on a decade with that same old garbage. Can you say dead horse? Especially since McLaren are willing to look past all his "imperfections" and want him back badly: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula-one/24171278 Asked if he wanted the double world champion, McLaren team boss Martin Whitmarsh said: "Yes, any team would. He's the best driver."
OH so DC wasnt lying about FA being unhappy and telling people about it on camera LOL! POT MEET KETTLE. Sorry you continue to make my point when you agree with me. I posted that hoping you would fall for it. BINGO! Now tell me DC was lying on the BBC over the race weekend. FA is not happy FACT!!!! Mclaren reaching out only proves it more Mr Insider LOL! Coming here is growing more and more unpleasant over nothing. Mostly because of you. I dont hate anyone or anything about F1 much less a driver. Grow up.
TifosiUSA, you are a funny guy... Everyone who says something against your holy Alonso is a hater and has no clue, you really think that you have the only and true opinion, be it here or against Vettel in other threads. It is absolutely useless to discuss with you any further because everything others say is sensless or old (2007), you behave like a small child or an old obstinate man (make your choice). If someone is against everyone in every single thread one maybe should think about that... At least I know now why I usually avoid to take a look into the F1-forum, thank you for reminding me...
You said unmotivated in you original post, not unhappy, post #19: I agreed that Alonso was probably unhappy in post #27, but never agreed he was unmotivated. Apparently you still don't know that those two words mean different things: So yeah, you totally "got" me. All you've proven is that you don't know the difference between unhappy and unmotivated. Congratulations on looking like a fool.
+1 TifosiUSA and DF1 should put each other on ignore. As a mod I don't have that priviledge although occasionally I'd love to do that too (not with you guys but some others whose rants I know before reading them).
Cool down guys, i didn´t start this thread sou you guys can pick a fight!!! And i'm totally fine with haters, i can't stand Alonso and i'm ok with it, there are plenty of people here o couldn't stand Massa and spent years writing about it..in fact they still do!!! Fact is, while Alonso as been streets ahead of felipe, massa was directly responsible for helping Ferrari winning 3 championships (should have been 4 ) while Alonso acounts for...0... This are the stats and these are the facts, so for me, Felipe will always be a found memory, even if he should have left the team a couple of years ago.
Massa rates Alonso above Schumi | Planet F1 | Formula One | News, Standings, Results, Features, Video Don't mind me, just adding fuel to the fire.
Heh, Alonso is good but not that good. It's obvious why Massa would say this: He's just trying to make himself look better to teams that might be interested in him- "hey everyone, I might have gotten beaten badly the last few years, but it was by a guy that was even better than Schumacher!" I doubt anyone buys it. In reality, everyone can see that he was a much better driver in 2006, before his accident.
It is just a friendly debate of opinions not a fight . I did not like Alonso when he was with Renault simply because he was racing and winning WDC's against my favorite driver but I did not hate him for that. I have grown to like and respect Alonso and I always liked and respected Massa as well. Regarding the topic of this thread I think Alonso would leave on his own accord but then again nothing surprises me in F1.
Jeez, Massa's head injury is worse than I thought . In all my years of being on forums I've never once put someone on ignore. Up until about 2 weeks ago.
I can't because I'm a mod but there have been several candidates over the last 10+ years I would have put on that list (incl. a very recent one as well...). OTOH it is a good thing to know what's going on for the discussions in the mod forum
Mr Singhof did not deserve at all the treatment he recieved here this week. No one does for simply stating an opinion, and by no means in a threatening manner or rude in any way. I stand by what I asked for for him - An apology.
Personally,... I think a better thread would have been: "When will Alonso leave Ferrari?" So many nuances... - FA's age... He must want another WDC. The clocks ticking. Is he getting impatient? - Potential conflict with Kimi. Will Kimi be equal? Better? Can Alonso handle a competitive teammate? Who will the team support in close calls (pit strategy etc)? - Will Ferrari deliver a competitive car I think there is a high likelihood that 2014 will be Alonso's last at Ferrari. So much potential for an unhappy Alonso...
No one cares. Really, no one cares. Could you be more of a drama queen? An apology? Thanks for the laugh, get a life.
Thank you for your kind words but I do not need an apology as I would not take this for serious just as I do not take the other stuff for serious he was writing. We all know that in a forum we are sometimes talking to people we would never talk to in real life and it seems that he is one of them. We just need to learn not to take that to serious but for what it is: a Sunday afternoon entertainment...
Is TifosiUSA having a hard time playing nice here? I have him on ignore so I haven't seen the banter. I can say however I'm just shocked that there's an issue, I though it was me.
That is the polite way of looking at it and frankly it is sad. Come on TifosiUSA your better than that.
