Scusi, but this is just totally incorrect.Quote:

The F92 and F93s were terrible cars, barely capable of podiums. The F60 was a far better car than those.
Beating his team-mate, for a start.Quote:

It was also better for Ferrari to have a driver who will bring focus to the team from the cockpit, instead of somebody who did not and never would.
That was worth paying an extra $18million for.
With Kimi in the cockpit, the Scuderia had no direction on the race track. We have that now.
What are you talking about?
I apologise for not reading as carefully as I should.
But still the F60 was not the worst car, the F2005 was worse, it just had a better driver in it.
As a fan of neither team, I think a Ferrari civil war is actually VERY Ferrari. It was only the 2000 - 2004 that Ferrari anything was different that way :vader:Quote:

I´m not so sure they can afford to slip further back.
Probably your memory is a little hazy, let me refresh it. The Mclaren wasn't on par Renault in the first three races, where Alonso built his lead. Kimi's first pole position that year was San Marino, he was leading comfortably until his "car" had driveshaft problems and retired. From then on, the Mclaren failed SIX times, either in qualifying or in race, and he had to do those recovery drives.Quote:

Really? Wasn't Massa behind both the Mclaren drivers in the championship, and wasn't he already kicking Schumacher's behind in 2006, albeit inconsistently? Oh wait, but yeah, I guess I'm wrong, he would have never been allowed to be more than a lapdog as long as Schumacher was around. So, yeah, I take my words back. Ferrari wouldn't have won the 2007 championship if not for Kimi. Alonso or Lewis would have taken it.Quote:
