Interesting that half the members of one of the teams were from the same family.Quote:

Yes, Heikki has had some bad luck this year, but even so he has not looked at all spectacular.
To say Heikki is better than DC was in a top car is simply wrong, IMO.
I'm no DC fan, but still I disagree.Quote:

McLaren need to figure out how to get him contributing again.
I would give Heikki 2009 season in McLaren too, but with the demand of needing to perform. If pace-wise he'll be so far behind Lewis in 2009 too, then this should be his last year in the team.
