    Lots of talk and complaining about the past, so what about the next GP? Back to back Montreal and Indianapolis.

    Canada is a tight course. I think that Ferrari will come back, both in Montreal and Indianapolis. I think both races will have very similar results, except that Alonso will beat Hamilton and Raikkonen in Indy.

    For Canada:
    1) Massa
    2) Raikkonen
    3) Hamilton
    4) Heidfeld
    5) Alonso
    6) Fischi
    7) Kubica
    8) Trulli

    My bet goes to the Brazilian too...Ferrari will come back in great shape...

    Lets dream with the one-two/Massa-Raikonnen followed buy a BMW and maybe Alonso/Lewis Hamilton...

    Why I still get the feeling that Raikonnen is just a tad slower than Massa...

    I think we'll see KR for the win. In yesterdays Italiaspeed.com article I get the sense he's doing some sole searching and will pull it off ;)

    I truly hope so. Ferrari needs a 1-2 at both events.

    1.Kimi He was blazing fast at Paul Ricard HTTT when it was in the Canada setup
    2.Massa He'll get second on pole and run the race uncontested with Kimi
    3.Hamilton He'll beat Alonso because he is the better driver, and McLaren doesn't want to give "team orders" again

    I agree, Massa will win both races. Although it would be nice for Kimi to win again soon.

    For excitement, I am just waiting for Lewis to get really pissed and ignore those non-existing ream orders.

    Raikkonen was on the podium last year in Montreal, and should have gotten second ahead of Schumacher, in a sh*ttier car. He's my guy for Canada, and Lewis is my man for Indy.

    Montreal:
    1. Alonso - cementing his WDC.
    2. Kimi - 3 seconds later ... deciding he might actually want to be a racing driver.
    3. LH - 15 seconds later ... after a brilliant storm back up through the grid after a spin after trying way too hard and been shown the door very firmly by Alonso :D
    4. Massa - lapped, but the best of the rest.
    5. who cares.

    US:
    1. McLaren ... even if Ferrari win, Alonso will podium.

    I meant to say team, not ream. Although someone will get reamed if they do not follow team orders.

    1. Kimi (he better or else championship is toast)
    2. Massa
    3. Hamilton
    4. Alonso
    5. Heidfeld

    I think the LWB Ferrari will do very well in Canada and Indy - both high speed circuits.

    NA is Alonso's bogey circuit. Lets hope it stays so to give Poor Ferrari a chance to catch up.

    Found this info online for the Canadian GP:

    Fastest Laps
    Year Driver Team Time Average Speed
    2006 Kimi Räikkönen McLaren/Mercedes 1'15.841 207.006 km/h
    2005 Kimi Räikkönen McLaren/Mercedes 1'14.384 211.061 km/h

    Winner
    Year Driver Team Average Speed
    2006 Fernando Alonso Renault 193.572 km/h
    2005 Kimi Räikkönen McLaren/Mercedes 198.754 km/h

    So based on the past two years of fastest laps, if the F2007 is good, I expect Kimi on pole and to win the race.

    1. Kimi
    2. Massa
    3. Hamilton
