So if you have no proof of it, why are you making such comments?

Kimi may stay at Ferrari. I don't think Ferrari or any other team is real keen about having Massa in their race car again. Too much "what if..." involved with that. Fisi has already disappointed Ferrari and is not likely to see a race drive after this season. Ferrari may have to keep Kimi.

So, are you saying you make no comments on this forum without proof? Like thugsquirrel and henners have already mentioned, much like them, I heard or saw Lewis mentioning it during a buildup to some race. Don't have time enough to gather where, when, what time, second or website I saw it on.

Who knows? Maybe Alonso really brought his "six tenths" to Mclaren. There is no proof of it, but some people do believe it and you say it's bull$hit.

Did you wake up after a long sleep or something?? The deals are done, Kimi is out and Massa is in, period.

What was that?

Did the Toyota principal say that they talked to Kimi and he just wants more money than they offered??

Nice way of saying "he wasn't interested". Corporate guy, Howett.

It looks that Felipe Massa doesn't seem too comfortable having Fernando Alonso as a teammate in 2010. Or else he wouldn't make the comments he did this week, regarding the Spaniard's potential involvement in the crash-gate. Being in Brazil and waiting for the start of the Interlagos race this weekend, the Ferrari-an seems convinced Alonso knew about the whole Singapore affair last year...

And I must say -- i agree to that.. :blackeye:

Massa has a short memory. It appears that he is a sore loser contrary to what he said after Interlagos 2008.

So Massa is a hypocrite?

And then how does he know? Maybe Massa KNEW that his fellow Brazilian had conspired.

But this whole issue is not ended yet because Briatore is currently seeking avenues through French the justice system and not the kangaroo court of the FIA.

I think Raikkonen is well rid of the toxic Ferrari environment. The disgrace is that at Suzuka, apart from his engineer the whole team ignored him. Apparently the "fly on the wall" reports that nobody COULD even look him in the eye.

When he entered the teams area including the motorhome everyone suddenly got busy. He then left and went over and spent time with Mclaren including entering the pitlane through the Mclaren garages and not the garages of the Ferrari team.
