Quiet One 15 Report post Posted November 21, 2009 Kimi sucks and Button's great. Bah, everybody sucks except for Kubica and Alonso (which drives for a team that sucks, nonetheless) Wait, I didn't mean that you suck. Well, maybe you do, don't get me wrong, there is nothing bad with you sucking. No, that didn't come out right. No offense! (I'm j/k, of course, but this is the kind of things that usually happen to me when I'm talking to a woman and my mind is being dirtier than hers. I keep apologizing for every phrase while she looks at me wondering wtf is wrong with me. Surprisingly, it works ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KoolMonkey 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 Anyone see the comment by Norbert about Kimi having his number and saying he can call him anytime? He had some glowing remarks about Kimi some months ago. I can't believe money is the issue why they haven't signed Kimi. And those rumours about his work ethic are all baloney. Of course I don't know that for a fact, but I've never felt he's lacked motivation, or not put in the time for setup on the cars. Anyway, still hoping Kimi will get the Merc seat. Otherwise if it's Citroen in WRC with Red Bull backing, I'd be ecstatic to see him in the Red Bull 2011 seat next to Vettel. Red Bull are a cool team, and seeing Kimi in their colors would be perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KoolMonkey 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2009 Anyone watch the ROC today/tonight? One of the British commentators said something very interesting about Schumi that I had not heard before. He said that if Massa was not up to snuff after 3 races in 2010, and it was clear he wasn't fit and fully recovered from his accident, then Schumi would take over for the rest of the year. As far as his neck goes, he said that wasn't the reason he didn't in the end fill Massa's seat. It was the fact the car was such a dog, he wasn't prepared to race it and look silly in the process by having so so results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was the fact the car was such a dog, he wasn't prepared to race it and look silly in the process by having so so results. I figured the Schumacher neck excuse was a load of bull. I also figured "the car was slow" was a BS excuse, too. The car was not slow for Kimi at that time. How would Schumi have known, he never drove the F60...I think he got in the F2007 and decided he just didn't have it and stayed away, and good on him for that. There's no sense in staying too long to prove nothing when you've already proven everything. He's a champion and a legend. His career can only go down from there. I think Massa will be fine. Schumi will end up as part of the FIA since he was always a very clean, rule-abiding competitor who will have no biases whatsoever. And he's a great guy to be a part of an organization that promotes road safety, since he's only had a few run-ins with the law over speeding and only flipped that Fiat van once when he was going way too fast. I had a horrifying dream that Villeneuve had signed for MGP. A nightmare. However, I wouldn't be fazed if MIchael, Ralf or Juan Pablo were Haug's 'big surprise' picks. Ralf could be favourite. Well, it won't be Juan Pablo. Montoya's never coming back, and he's said so himself. He nearly won the NASCAR championship before fading to P6 or something like that late in the going. He's finally figured those cars out and he's so much happier there. His F1 career is unfortunately over. If it's Ralf, I'll be pleased. We need more guys for David Hobbs of SPEEDTV to make fun of during the race. The only "big surprise" I'd take a gamble on if I ran MGP would be Kobayashi. I doubt it will be.

maure 1 Report post Posted November 23, 2009 Little to win and much to lose sums it up for me. Schumacher had his day, had it big, and that _was_ that. Few (two?) WDC's have walked off and then returned to win the show... and that was _then_ when F1 was a different game. Schumacher could be one of these drivers but I honestly don't think so... bar Whiting's doings. What's even more difficult to believe is that someone has _FINALLY_ given Massa a deadline after wasting a Ferrari drive for... four (five?) years. Truly fcking unbelievable.
