It'd be a dream come true if Alonso, Hamilton, Massa and Raikkonen all go into the last race within grasp of the WDC title...
Now you are asking for too much :wink:

After Monaco you'd think it would be between Alonso and Hamilton but I think we should at least wait until after the US GP.

At this stage I think Alonso / Hamilton / Massa
(sorted alphabatically :D )
A dream is a dream :wink: No matter how absurd.
A three way race seems the most logical outcome at this stage but I still have faith in Raikkonen though. After all he can break only that many cars :lol:

Now lets stick to the topic shall we :D
I am illiterate anyway. So rest assured :)

Back to the topic though: I think the Ferraris have a fair chance in Canada. At least it should be a close race between them and the Maccas.

he and Webbo have gone into the scrap metal business.............
Tis time they introduced an overall envelope for F1 cars, and demanded the interior space be filled....to reduce the aero demands..........Webbo's car flexed so much the gearbox casing broke :evil:

Unbelievable it may sound, it could happen once in a blue moon... Flavio hired Kovalainen, didn't he? Few races more and that H might well become an F.

STR are close competitors to RedBull in the scrap metal business... Meanwhile Honda get the crown in the crap metal business :x

Yep, Heidfeld and his BMW is a force to be reckoned with. Then there is Fisi... It could be a neat little race on the most boring circuit of the season.

The last truly exciting season I recall was back in 1981. 82 and 83 weren't bad either. No one driver or team had dominated the season. Only if this season would be one of those...
'83 was when I first started watching. I think there have been some exciting years.
If you can get your hands on a tape of the 81 season don't miss it.

The first season I watched F1 was 1979. Those were the days... F1 drivers were real F1 drivers, F1 cars real F1 cars and the idea of this forum not even conceived in the depths of Ed's mind. Come to think of it, perhaps even he wasn't conceived at the time :lol:

Nick Heidfeld and Robert Kubica! That would be a season.

Who remembers 1982 when John Watson, Keke Rosberg, Alain Prost, Rene Arnoux, and Didier Pironi all had a mathematical chance to win the championship?
