February 29, 200817 yr Author wednesday's times are encouraging piquet has actually decided to drive fast for once
March 1, 200817 yr cant wait 4 the new season im thinkin McLaren win this year supporting Lewis all the way
March 1, 200817 yr Will be interesting to see how Lewis does given his performances last season in the Silver Ferrari, now he knows the tracks he will have no excuses I want Kimi or Massa to win the WDC though
March 9, 200817 yr It'll definately be McLaren vs Ferrari early in the season, both are miles ahead of the rest and I reckon it'll be Ferrari who are strongest in Melboune (especially after last season's one man race). Should be a good fight behind them though, Renault, BMW, Williams and Red Bull all look very quick hopefully so that should be a fun race to watch too. I'm supporting DC as always so it would be great to see RBR finally get a front fighting car! Shame about Jenson still being uber slow in the Honda but he seems happy enuogh that the car has potential so maybe he can pull somthing out of the bag.
March 9, 200817 yr See that the new Singapore race on 28th September will be the first GP held at night, 8pm local time. :) Edited March 9, 200817 yr by brian91
March 9, 200817 yr See that the new Singapore race on 28th September will be the first GP held at night, 8pm local time. :) Should be interesting :cheer: I say this nearly every year, but I hope to watch most of the season this time :lol:
March 12, 200817 yr What do you think will happen this season? Sadly, I think it will be very dull year with Ferrari running away with the Constructors championship with Raikkonen retaining his title with quite some ease. Lewis Hamilton will have to settle for a distant third place in the title race but not before Renault's Alonso takes him out a couple of times during the season. Which will make him popular before he moves to Ferrari in 2009 which everyone and their dog knows is a done deal.
March 12, 200817 yr Yeah I can't see past Ferrari to be honest. Hardly their fault that it'd be boring though...
March 12, 200817 yr As much as I agree I'm not gonna doubt Lewis' chances just yet, he has more experience to go with his exceptional talent so I think he'll at least not be too far behind the Ferraris personally. One thing I'd LOVE though is for Renault to do really c**p this season because of Alonso ^_^
