		<description>Kimi should have been WDC in 2003, 2005 and this year.

But the team let him down.

OK, some of his unreliability was self-inflicted, but take away just one of this years&#039;s DNF&#039;s and he is champion.

Next year, he will definitely get the Crown, no doubt about it.</description>

		<description>thank you clive.  and oliver, i have to say i don&#039;t actually recall kimi driving any &quot;ailing&quot; car. most of his dnf&#039;s have been pretty spectacular, complete and immediate failures  regardless of what the team says. not to mention real heartbrakers. anybody have stats on what drivers have come closest to winning the most times in their career only to break or blow up or crash because of a failure in the closing laps? ok, he could have changed the tire, lost the race, lost all points but, honestly, that late in the game, you may as well go for the big odds as long as you got the big huevos.

i&#039;m resigned to it being a long shot, but, i&#039;ll be best pleased to see mumble mouth take it. i gotta admit, i like the kid better than most of the others. maybe because he&#039;s got a grip on his mouth and lives his life in spite of his job. i really respected villenueve for pretty much dictating the terms of his pr requirements,too. 

and viva christine!god, i hope someone has the common sense to give you shot at a permanent press pass and i hope it&#039;s speedtv,not itv. peter windsor must go. fresh, we really need fresh. america can handle fresh. 

i appreciate what you&#039;re saying although i&#039;m not convinced the danger factor is quite so insignicant-there are two incidents this year that admittedly, 10 or 15 years ago would have pretty put paid to a career(wurz and kubica)but both were equally lucky that it wasn&#039;t more serious. i wasn&#039;t actually banking on kubica getting out of that car with a pulse and raised cockpit surrounds or not, wurz was very lucky not to have had his head bashed in.

good luck kimi. i guess it&#039;s in poor taste to wish the other two bad, but it&#039;s been a year of bad taste all around.</description>
