    Unlikely to be either's turn next year unless there is a marked improvement within Ferrari's political structure. Ferrari strike me today as similar to the Ferrari we saw in the early 90s. An all Italian political structure that can be nearly there at times but never quite. Until they shake up the political climate I don't really see that changing.

    According to a F1 Journalist thats exactly what is needed at Ferrari
    It needs an englishman there and possibly a guy who was there before as Filipe,s race engineer .
    Yes things are not all rosy at Williams for Rob Smedley ,and Filipe is retiring ,so maybe a move back to Marrinello could be good for Rob and also beneficial for Ferrari too

    I'd agree with that. Maurizio isn't going to bring them titles that's for sure. He needs to go anyway and Ferrari need to bring in someone top class to replace him. Not sure whom that might be yet but anyone is better than Ratatouille.

    If Rosberg wins the World Championship, I made just that prediction before the seasons opening race..

    Hammy has had his glory, I have a hunch that its Nicos turn this year.



    You read it here first.

    I'd still prefer Lewis to win it though as I feel he has been better than Nico over the whole season.

    I rooted for Rosberg to win it this year also, but not the way things has turned out. That's not to say he would not be a deserving champ. You got to take it as it comes. He did just that.

    Totally agree, he has had a tad more luck on his side but he has also driven very well with few mistakes.
    Hamilton is clearly a cut above him in terms of talent but I certainly won't grudge Nico his WDC if that is what happens tomorrow.

    If Nico wins it, he deserves the WDC, all excuses considered. Still a great season for The Boss!
    May the forza be with you
