I believe, when asked Hamilton said the driver he most respects is Kubica......Kubica said the driver he most respects is Hamilton :lol:
These young buggas just dont have any respect for the Alonsos, Kimis, Webbers, DCs, et al. The next driver to seriously hurt himself, or someone else in F1 will be young Master PK :cry:

Fisi driving for Renault has been a bl**dy waste of time! :shock: And the huge talent of Heikki Kovalainen has been denied us for that :x Jeez Kovi is as old as Alonso, he could be a double world champ by now! Or at least given Fanando a run for his money :twisted:

A certain F1 Manager of a specific F1 team envisaged a specific Australian driver joining Alonso, so his dream of a certain team having a 1,2...and the constructors 2 years running would come true.
That Australian has now started listening to that gentleman.....2008, 2009......the oldest consecutive double WDC :lol:

Either Black Jack, Fangio or Farina would surely be the oldest non consecutive 2x champs........hmmmmmm........ or Ascari :? ....tis a bit of a bugga being so young :lol:

Surely if "a certain F1 Manager" had wanted a "specific Australian driver" he could have got him; being as he undoubtedly is a certain manager of a non-specified team and a specific Australian?!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Mark Webber has since gone down on bended knee and apologised to Briatore for ignoring his advice......Mark wanted to emulate AJ.........I am just not yet sure that Briatore has not further punished him, by sending him to RB.......... :?

Think it probably was two knees after going to Williams.
Ok, Lewis may win the WDC in 07, but Sato will beat him in 08.

Only a year Snowy! and I think Kovalainen will benefit a lot from spending a year in a test role. Jumping straight into racing didn't help Rosberg did it ? I think Hamilton should also go for a test role first. Don't think de la Rosa should get the McLaren drive though!

Perhaps Flavio punished Webber by signing Kovalainen or keeping Fisichella :shock: :shock:
Now if Webber impresses in the Red Bull and Kovalainen or Fisichella stuff up then their could be a vacancy.
