I'm not a Fred fan but the dude destroyed the field. It's one thing to say Ferrari handicapped Massa but when you beat down the competition from start to finish you have to tip your hat to the guy. Love him or hate him he's now the favorite to win the WDC. Both he and Ferrari have peaked at the right time.Quote:

I think he has to be. Both he and Ferrari have leapfrogged Adrian Newey and Red Bull and are now taking it to them. I gotta hand it to Aldo Nova, I mean Costa. For too long the idea has been that Italians running Ferrari couldn't get it done and it appears that has all changed.Quote:

I definately think he can win. I just don't think he is the favorite. And you can't count the Boss out of this yet either.Quote:

I must admit that it would be quite annoying if a driver, won I wanted to win the WDC the least, eventually comes out on top after being nowhere in mid-season. But it looks like it's going to be that way. :mark: The whole competition keeps collapsing around him (Alonso 50 pts, Hamilton 0 from the last two races!), while Alonso is coming back to force exactly when he usually does - the decisive phase of the season. And two races in a row he nails the strategy and everything else just brilliantly to come out on top in a tight fight. Oh well - why can't others be that masterfully calm and consistent when it counts! Frustrating also from Vettel's point of view, the perennial loser, who always narrowly misses out of wins...
Anyway, that would be Alonso's 3rd WDC already, while the rest would be on a single one at best. Damn, after Schumacher's period I don't want another driver owning the competition, but a level playing field instead!! :p :
By the way, just found out that Alonso is now tied with Clark and Lauda in terms of race wins (25). If Ferrari stays that strong for years to come, Alonso is likely to end up in Top3 by the end of his career in that department.
Ha, we can not predict what will happen in the next race, we can't be sure about next year! But I do keep my fingers crossed for Fernando and the mighty Ferrari team.
