    Re: Team-mate battles of 2013

    It is amazing how Grosjean has improved this season. Compare it to the crash fest of 2012 and apart from Monaco where he had a terrible weekend he has been sensible and fast.

    He now looks like he could and will win Grand Prix in the future.

    Never saw that a year ago.

    I don't think anyone saw it!

    Remind you of a young Finn? Crashed a lot and was wild but fast in the early seasons, then matured!

    Sounds like you are referring to Mika (not Kimi). He did mature nicely as The Shoe found out

    To be honest, last year Grosjean finished second in Canada and was fairly close to winning at Valencia before alternator failure.

    So winning an odd race here or there was never out of question. However, consistency has been a big problem. We will see, what does the future bring on that front.

    Why thank you sir And I can offer you a Noddy badge if you like

    I remember Mika when he was young and brash, like the Takumo Sato of Finland! But he came good in the end didn't he
