Heard this last year. The only title kimi will win is for most disillusional fan base. What you going to say when alonso is passing kimi for position? "Oh there's no alonso data in the car anymore that's why it couldn't keep up with alonso himself" lmao, it's coming, mark my words and when it does I'll be sitting here with a pen and pad ready to right down a whole list of excuses I can use later. This is make or break for kimi, he needs to close the gap to Vettel or he will be gone at the end of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2016 Kimi needs to extract the maximum out of qualifying this year as that was his major issue last year and hindered a lot of good results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2016 Wouldn't be good if they were just as competitive as Mercedes straight of the bat? Can you imagine how tense the rivalry would be between Lewis and nico if they don't have the clear advantage as previous seasons?

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2016 Nah I doubt very much they will be ahead of merc. Merc were ahead already so what ever they achieve now is just extending the gap so Ferrari have to catch up and pass them which is a big ask. But no doubt in my mind they have closed the gap, be nothing but dissapionment if they don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2016 Yes...According to my calculations Kimi has a WDC and the same number of wins at Ferrari Kimi was handed his title and hasn't he been at Ferrari twice as long as fernando and yet fernando racked up the same ammount of wins and finished 2nd 3 out of those 5 seasons. pretty darn good, kimi can't even do that when fernando is gone and the car suposidly built more to his liking, just like you all said at the beginning of 2015 and what happened? Another flogging but this time from a driver who has been at Ferrari for 5 minutes compared to kimi and once again finished over 100 points behind his teammate.

Emmcee 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2016 Alonso 2x champion in his own right by actually earning his titles and beating kimi for one of them. Now that's hard facts against a title given to him due to poor team management from mclaren. Look at 2008 a full season he needed for a championship campaign and yet it's massa who steals the show. Kimi couldn't even beat massa who in turn also got smashed by Alonso at Ferrari. If you want to talk about hard facts, I wouldn't pass these up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
