not if kimi goes to ferrari.... Niko will have to wait a few years

I know that he has already made a name for himself but honestly if he can get a reliable car.... he would wreck shop!

I'm a fan of Schumacher now and have been back when he was racing for Benetton. (I was too young when he was racing Jordans). He can be an asshole driver on the track but you can't deny for a minute that he's the greatest driver in F1 history.

Just for discussion, my pick for the next HUGE name in F1.... Niko Rosberg
I've always thought he was an asshole but the man can drive.

All the great F1 drivers are assholes behind the wheel...Senna, Mansell etc.

Here hun...Sorry about Kimi. As far as Niko vs Kimi....Kimi is already a big name in F1. Right now Kimi, Alonso, and Schumi are the big three. Massa will be a big name I think, but I'd bet money that in 4 years or so Niko is going to be the man to beat.

1 12 Jenson Button Honda 70 1:52:20.941 14 10
2 4 Pedro de la Rosa McLaren-Mercedes 70 +30.8 secs 4 8
3 16 Nick Heidfeld Sauber-BMW 70 +43.8 secs 10 6
4 11 Rubens Barrichello Honda 70 +45.2 secs 3 5
5 14 David Coulthard RBR-Ferrari 69 +1 Lap 12 4
6 7 Ralf Schumacher Toyota 69 +1 Lap 6 3
7 6 Felipe Massa Ferrari 69 +1 Lap 2 2
8 5 Michael Schumacher Ferrari 67 Track rod 11 1
9 18 Tiago Monteiro MF1-Toyota 67 +3 Laps 16
10 19 Christijan Albers MF1-Toyota 67 +3 Laps 22
11 21 Scott Speed STR-Cosworth 66 +4 Laps 20
12 8 Jarno Trulli Toyota 65 Engine 8
13 22 Takuma Sato Super Aguri-Honda 65 +5 Laps 19
Ret 1 Fernando Alonso Renault 51 Mechanical 15
Ret 3 Kimi Räikkönen McLaren-Mercedes 25 Accident 1
Ret 20 Vitantonio Liuzzi STR-Cosworth 25 Accident 17
Ret 10 Nico Rosberg Williams-Cosworth 19 Electrical 18
Ret 2 Giancarlo Fisichella Renault 18 Spin 7
Ret 15 Christian Klien RBR-Ferrari 6 Spin 13
Ret 9 Mark Webber Williams-Cosworth 1 Accident 5
Ret 23 Sakon Yamamoto Super Aguri-Honda 0 Engine 21
DSQ 17 Robert Kubica Sauber-BMW 69 +1 Lap 9


And yes, YAY for Honda but BOO for Jenson. I can't stand that prick. Honda and Toyota WILL dominate F1 within 3 years. There only real competition is going to be Ferrari. Honda and Toyota can afford to spend rediculous money on F1 to win without hurting their own finances, and Ferrari would spend every penny they had even if it meant breaking the bank to stay competitive. For the other companies, I just don't think F1 is going to be cost effective once the big Japanese companies start really throwing money at it. Renault has the money, but I don't think they'll spend as much as the big Japanese companies.

Then do like I do. Root for Sato and whoever else drives for Aguri that week.

They're the most consistent team by far!

well to be honest with you I think he was pushed off the corner, in which case he doesn't need to concede his lead. The stewards didn't call him back either, which leads me to believe that he was in fact being defensive by avoiding contact. After that, he kept the lead and in the following chicane he gave de la Rosa a window to pass which de la Rosa didn't take. After that the race was back on.

I don't know though. I'm going to wait for some post race reports to make my decision on what really happened.

At least that team did do one smart thing and take Ide out of the team before he really did too much damage.

Sato has actually been a little...safer (albeit not much faster) since he got the new chassis upgrades.


Ferrari is only 6 points out of the constructor championship and 10 from the driver...They may still pull it off!
