Hey, all I do is sell health insurance to old people in nursing homes. Trust me!
Ok, Lewis may win the WDC in 07, but Sato will beat him in 08.

I went and looked :shock:

Williams qualify on low fuel and have slow starts (not to mention drivers with attitude :shock: :shock:

If they keep at it they won't win this season.
They may win a race under wierd conditions just by luck.

They seem to be around 20 seconds slower over a race distance

Comparing Williams and Toyota acheives nothing :shock: :shock:
You should compare them to Renault or McLaren, the only 2 teams to win this year!!

I see ....


Start :bs: :bs:

There is no doubt Williams will win a race this season. Perhaps even at Canada. They have 2 potential world champions in Webber and Heidfeld, a fantastic car and a brand new starting system they developed in secrecy (after kidnapping the senior Renault technician)

If they don't succeed in Canada then for sure in the US as the BMW engine will excel on such track and both Webber and Heidfeld like the US track

End :bs: :bs:

My views on the teams,

McLaren are a bit ahead of Renault but I worry about their reliability. Montoya was unfortunate at the last race and he'll have to do better than Raikkonen in Canada otherwise he'll play second fiddle

Renault are still very strong. Alonso set the fastest lap at the last race. He just need to keep scoring podiums and the championship is his no matter. Fisichella I feel is drifting Villeneuve's way

Williams I think are overrated because of the good qualifying. They've made progress but not much. When they qualify at the front on similar fuel loads to the others then I'd change my mind.
The Talk about Heidfeld or Webber to challenge for the title is dream talk

Ferrari are struggling. In Europe we saw that it wasn't just the tyres that kept Michael struggling behind Massa!. Perhaps he is losing his edge, we'll see!

BAR have been very dissapointing so far but I think they will improve. I can't see Honda accepting being beaten by Toyota!

Red Bull are the surprise for me. The have a strong package, Coulthard is doing well too. But the swapping between Klien and Liuzzi is a joke. Had they kept Klien they would have certainly scored more points.

Toyota are doing much better than I thought. Trulli and even Ralf seem to be enjoying themselves unlike da matta last year who I thought would do really well

Sauber are struggling with finances I think and that is affecting them badly. A third car would benefit them but they can't afford it!!
Perhaps that is why they have kept Villeneuve as they can't afford to release him!

Jordan and Minardi, they are progressing but very slowly!!
