    Kingshark replied to the forum topic Vettel 4th WDC Almost Guaranteed? in the group Group logoF1 8 hours, 33 minutes ago

    @jonsan

    The Massa Alonso has had as a teammate is very different from the Massa people held in high regard. Post-injury Massa has been a poor driver. I’m sorry to say it but it’s the truth. He’s a shadow of what he […]

    If Ferrari are so bad at getting heat into their tyres why have they had the best starting car over the last few years?

    Because they have a better launch setting than everyone else?

    I’m not sure how […]

    In addition to the above comments, Vettel is a supreme qualifier whereas Alonso, as good as he is, is not on par with the likes of Hamilton or Vettel over 1 lap, which would give Vettel the edge on certain […]

    @a-flying-toilet

    Alonso has never had the fastest car in the grid during his time in F1 so who knows what he could do when he finally gets it!!

    That’s rather untrue, actually.

    1. Alonso had the best car in […]

    Williams were still a strong championship contender in 2003, they didn’t really seriously decline until around 2005. The loss of BMW was the final shot in the arm.

    At the moment, a below par weekend for Red Bull is, say, a 2nd place and a 8th place. Whereas with Ferrari, that is classed as a successful weekend (as they described it after Canada). And that, at the […]

    I actually agree with you there, but then I don’t have a problem with what this implies – which is that Milton Keynes has better drivers than Maranello. :)

    Nope, the drivers might just be in favor of […]

    Kingshark replied to the forum topic why are Toyota drivers so slow? in the group Group logoF1 4 days, 11 hours ago

    In all fairness, Schumacher was driving a Toyota for 3 consecutive seasons, Cologne were even paying him $25 million per year.

    Of course, I’m talking about Ralf…

    - It could be that the slow speed and massive downforce of the car is suited to those tracks and the small advantages accrue over each corner translating into an eventual win.
    - Or it could be […]

    I just can’t see 2013 being any different given the fact that he’s having a 2nd mini golden season.

    Unlike 2012, Ferrari are actually using a proper windtunnel this year, so I wouldn’t be too […]

    Ferrari have had the equal fastest car this year, and Malaysia and Bahrain are the reason to why Alonso is not leading the WDC.

    There, I said it. :-)

    Kingshark replied to the forum topic Vettel 4th WDC Almost Guaranteed? in the group Group logoF1 5 days ago

    2013 has been nowhere near as competitive as 2012, so the cross-comparison is virtually useless. Nevertheless, although Vettel is now the bookies favorite, absolutely nothing is decided yet. Alonso is only 36 […]

    He did the same in Bahrain this year, and Bahrain last year. I don’t like him, but I am impressed by his tyre saving skills, I’ll give him that. Not even Hulkenberg stood out in that area the way di Resta did last […]

    But at the same time no driver in the history of the sport has stooped low enough as he has in 1994, 1997 and even in 2006.

    Schumacher actually had an awesome season in 1997, but that is often overlooked […]

    I agree with @todfod, Ferrari had the best car in 2008. The drivers blew it, that’s a fact.
