FORZA FERRARI!!!The guys from Maranello are doing a great job.
Lets hope Kimi gets back to form again in 2009 and Ferrari would be unbeatable.

A very good championship for Ferrari- somethign to hang their hats on and be proud of. However, in my first full seraosn of following the sport, it has become clear to me that the drivers championship overshadows the constructors title by a long shot- dose anyone else seem to think the same way?

@ Sumedh

I believe you are correct in assessing Heikki’s performance- he is not the consisten performer I thought he would be at the start of the season. However, Lewis is the franchise at McLaren, and I don’t think the team will ever go out and get a truly capeable second driver for as long as Lewis is with the team and at the top of his game. Heikki may not help win the constructors title, but as long as he stays out of Hamilton’s way, Ron and Martin really don’t care.

As long as Heikki is in Mclaren; I don’t think Mclaren are ever going to win the WCC

Truth be told I still have a tiny bad taste in my mouth regarding this years FIA Ferrari’s ruthless tactics in trying to manufacture an outright win (i.e. WDC & WCC) at seemingly any expense… but we couldn’t have asked for a better ending to dispel that very taste… oh well anyway, bygones etc, and well done the reds…

Keith,

the page title says: Ferrari claims record 16th F1 constructors’ world title in Shanghai. Should be Sao Paulo no?

Last year they became champions after the FIA decided to exclude McLaren from the constructors’ championship over the spying row.

Oh, come on… get over that, will you. McLaren scored 203 points in 2007, and Ferrari 204 — how much clearer do you want it?

It was a job well done from team Ferrari! It was a perfect finish, but not a good journey considering the cheap mistakes they’ve done through the course of 2008 and the team’s caliber, I wish them all the best for 2009, and expect them to come back strong for next season.

I feel, Ferrari – Kimi / (Massa minus few of his mistakes), McLaren – Lewis, Renault – Fernando, RedBull – Vettel (if the car proves to be good) & BMW – Kubica gonna be a damn good contenders for 2009. 2009 can be much better, if Max quits forever or stops imposing useless technical regulations.

The 2008 Winners are Lewis Hamilton the WDC and Ferrari the WCC.

McLaren one more time lose against Ferrari.
