    Think about the whole season--car development; experience; having Michael as #1 with team orders; Michael's ability to elevate the team . . . Would Michael have won the WDC in Kimi's car?

    I think he would have won it a few races back.

    Also, was there ever a better teammate than Massa?

    Hard to tell. Michael would have been dominant in the Ferrari and Kimi would have been dominant in the McLaren. IMO If Kimi was still at McLaren, he would have overshadowed Hamilton. It would be a close fight once again between Schumacher and Raikkonen.

    If Michael was still racing, I bet Hamilton wouldn't even have a car.

    Could not agree more.

    MS would have it in the bag a long time ago. The Ferrari this year was a LOT better than it was last year, and it came down to a long shot in the last race last year too. The only difference was Schuey. He would have run away with it this year.

    Yes! :D



    Tho if Montoya had remained in the sport... would he be in the same position as Lewis? I wonder if he has been crying himself to sleep recently :p

    who? Lewis? i really doubt it. he's young, and he knows there's always next year. i think, as a rookie, he's done a fairly great job this season. he's been arrogant and talked too much lately, but credits for a great season to him.

    This is a rhetorical question, right?

    It doesn't matter because Michael is retired.

    They're aware of that, that's why they made the topic.

    It would go down to the second to last or last race. Alonso/Kimi have already proven they can hang with Schumi.
