JPM is not as good as Kimi or Alonso

[Jenson_Rules 0]

JPM is a great racer, he makes mistakes yes but is highly entertaining and firey on track. He may not be as good as ms, kimi, alonso, but i think hes pretty much above or equal to everyone else, maybe once button wins a race he will detatch himself from the very good driver group, and move to the brilliant drivers group.

Anyway I put JPM's spanish race as a bit of an odd one. He made mistakes and i just dont think he was quite ready but im sure he will be rioght on par in monaco as hes usually very very good there!

Juan Pablo Montoya has admitted that he is still struggling to get the most from his new McLaren MP4-20, as he bids to get on top of teammate Kimi Raikkonen in this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix.

The Colombian, who only returned to action in Spain after missing two races through a shoulder injury, believes that he is not showing his true potential in the car because he still does not feel comfortable in it.

Speaking to Speedtv.Com, Montoya said: "If I can make the car work the way I really want it, it will be really nice.

"I think it will be great to take it anywhere. At the moment it's a difficult car to drive for me, I'm not very comfortable with it.

"Once I can make it through a race where we can work with it and do changes you can see the pace is there, no question about it. The problem is it seems for me to work in a very narrow window."

It's abit to premature to try to rank JPM. We must remember 2003 when he was a contender for the WDC right until the Japanese race. He is a very talented driver regardless of our opinions. We must remember that the reason why Mclaren signed JPM a year earlier, is that they were afraid that Ferrari could have snatched him before they did and that's besides JPM wanting to show Willaim's up.

JPM also had a problem with his fuel rig during one of his pitstops which cost him time.

I apoligize. Nice Senna banner, well done!

[Jenson_Rules 0]

so you should apologise . Yeah loving your latest banner addition there ecap, shame i never had the delight of watching senna racing live as i was but a mere kiddy (twas 6 when he passed away)! I have had the great pleasure though of wtaching a few races he took part in, and from what ive seen it is clear he was amazing and going by the geberal opinion and his hostory he is obviously undeniably one of if not the greatest ever F1 driver. As u all already know.

Thank you, I didnt realize how much I miss him...I was remembering that he was the "Schumacher" of his time winning a lot and I was "Anti-Senna" but when he died I felt terrible, realy sad moment. (I was following him at that time because he was running with a Renault engine).

His first win was in a Lotus with a Renault Turbo engine, his last race was with a Renault engine too...life is life...

My Father is guilty about this fanatism!

Since I remember we have always had a Renault in our Garage, now we own a Scenic, a Clio Sport and a M

That wasn't a fictitious statement I made-up. It was in reference to a statement Ron Dennis made last year. Ferrari didn't deny it. But what they did say is that they preferred Kimi over JPM.

For obvious reasons no doubt
