I think Hamilton is going to be going places in the future... and I think Alonso is very aware of this, think he realises he's not the young gun anymore.

Also I think BMW, is going places... especially after the 1st race, and this being their 2nd season with their own car, and not just a motor...

If BMW's motorsport history is anything to go by, they should be one of the top runners, and I would say in a few years be constructor's champions.

I've also heard rumours that Nissan is trying to get a team into F1... although I'm not sure, as their parent company Renault is there already... but hey an RB26 powered F1 car can't be 2 bad :P

[vivalegreg]

ehh i dont like ralfs attitude, he hasnt shown anything impressive to me...masa may be the #1 driver but i think kimi is still better...we will see at the next race...

e30sd, do you watch nascar or something? f1 is the shit, im sorry you disagree but whaaatever bro

i am betting kimi will have more points then massa by the end of the season

[schmidty]

I'll be pullin for BMW as usual. Kubica shows a lot of promise and hopefully Heidfeld's performance will continue to be on par with the first race. Other then that I'll also be pulling for Kimi and won't ever give up on Ralf :D

all these teams seem strong and i believe the number one guy for ferrari is kimi, he is just quicker then massa...although mass has a shot kimi has shown his strengths in the past seasons when his car ran right as underpowered as it has been with mclaren

No Massa is #1 man at Ferrari. The cars are numbered as so, Massa #5, Kimi #6 as well as the camera mounts on top of the car, red/orange is #1 and yellow is #2. So in Ferrari's eyes he is #1 man.

Massa is by far a better driver than Kimi, the preseason test times and practice times show this. This race was not a good show as his car was loaded down with fuel and he only made one stop haveing started 22ed due to engine and transmission failures. Meaning that one of those sets had to of been the Bridgestone soft tire which blister and degrade quickly.

Last year Kimi was not in a good car and did not show any kind of pace, and did not win a single race . The year before [2005] he had the best car/tire with Mclaren and the ever widening Michelin's, later to be banned by the FIA. In 2003 he was within grasp of the title but Schuie wa just too good.

[vivalegreg]

yea they do. they spent 300 million dollars on their car for this year and it is slower then the car and doesnt perform as well then last year. i know that the tyres they are running make a difference and are slower then the tires of last year but thats no excuse. each year these teams pour millions upon millions of dollars into F1 for the entire car, aerodynamics, suspension, brakes, power, reliability, anything that can make the car go faster. lap times get quicker every single year teams need to be on top of their game. it isnt about the most money spent in the sport, you just need to do your homework and know what this sport is all about. ferrari used to not be the team to beat all the time but they got their because they did their homework, seeing what works and what doesnt work and go from there. ferrari alone spends millions upon millions for any extra millisecond they can squeeze out of the car.

[Jean]

I've always been a fan of Kimmi!

[Erick]

Btw, Honda probably feels pretty stupid right about now. Just wanted to throw that out there. :p

[vivalegreg]

like i said in the other thread teams to watch are ferrari, mclaren, bmw

all these teams seem strong and i believe the number one guy for ferrari is kimi, he is just quicker then massa...although mass has a shot kimi has shown his strengths in the past seasons when his car ran right as underpowered as it has been with mclaren

bmw i believe will do better they have a good car it looks like

hamilton looks to be quick, and such a yungster too...i bet that has alonso cringing in his thoughts haha

DEFF STICKY THIS

[craig4ie]

It's all good, I do the same in SFLDrifters.com hah

Hamilton is going to be the kid to watch this season.

Yes he is.... he made it clear throughout the entire race that Alonso could not touch him. Really unfortunate to see how the pass ended in the pit time difference. Dominant 2nd place the whole race.... simply amazing.
