the teams to watch this season are any with the rbr on the side or an affilation, this could be a huge year for them
Massa aint a "lie down, roll over, scratch my tummmy" sorta guy, IMHO he hastened Schueys retirement......... JayVee........stats please.......Massa v Schuey 2006.......Muchas Gracias Bella Signorita.
Ok Julian, here are some stats, you can choose the one that suits

Last 9 races of 2006

Michael: 62
Massa: 52

Last 6 races of 2006

Michael: 32
Massa: 30

Last 3 races of 2006

Massa: 18
Michael: 15

Last 2 races of 2006

Massa: 18
Michael: 5

So as you can see Massa did better than Michael in the latter part of the season but that was after Michael announced his retirement

Qualifying for the last 9 races of 2006

Massa: 2, 2, 3, 2, 1, 4, 20, 1, 1
Michael: 1, 1, 2, 11, 2, 2, 6, 2, 10

Similar picture here, Massa qualified better in the latter part of the season. But qualifying with fuel and grid penalties can cause some distortion

Basically Massa needs to get a good start but I don't see him a Championship material anyway. He may still win it if :
- the Ferrari is much stronger than the other cars
- Kimi carries on breaking the Ferrari
- McLaren keeps breaking down

ferrari makes strong car.
Mr Schumaker was banging and hitting on corner kerbstones as hard as kimmi i thenk. mclaren breaks, ferrari does not. I thenk kimmi goes to ferrari for strong car.

This is a very simple view of how an F1 car works!

I think Montoya was much harder on cars but still retired less times than Raikkonen. Figure that one

this to figure is easy. i think kimmi is harder on car than Montoya. you say your thoughts i say mine we are in disagreement. so? I thenk we need data on geometric loading of suspension, corner g force on componentry, degree of slip with camber for each mans setting up, i do not have this so i say my opinion. i thenk it is difficult to be harder on car than team mate, and retire less times.
