TOPIC CLOSED DUE TO LOSS OF VALIDITY

[Mattieo]

i think he will win a race this year. he has the car, he has the skill, he justs needs to deliver.

[jamps]

He will win a race. He needs to adjust to the fact that traction control is not there anymore. He's having a hard time with that.

On the other hand, although it's still very early to say, i don't think he will be a main contender for the championship this year.

[Fergie1]

He made ONE, I repeat, ONE mistake this year. And he made a pole too. Why is everyone hating him now?



Judging by the black smoke from the brakes it was hardly his fault (considering that the exact same kind of smoke could be seen in Kimi's Monza 2007 crash).

So yes, he'll definitely win races, but less than Kimi for sure.

The black smoke came out after he started to spin as your picture shows.

[maltafan]

In an interview on RAI he said that he hit a kerb and the back of his car was not under control anymore.

He admitted it was his fault, but Ferrari did not.

I think, with some luck he might win a GP this year. I hope it is not Hungary.

[metalhead188]

he has to learn to drive before he can win

[donald29]

he is too good not to win, he just needs to get more experienced without tc.

remember he used to be erratic with tc, but calmed down into a schumacer-esque race winner, i reckon we will see a similar sort of thing happen again. :cheezy:

[iceman1]

Regardless of being a mistake or a car problem, he disappointed me anyway.
In the first stint, he had 1 lap more fuel than Kimi, which accounts for 0.2s and he wasnt able to open up a decent gap to guarantee returning on the lead after the pit stop.

[patronius]

I count 3 mistakes.
The 2 spins and also being a little too optimistic on Coulthard.
It wasn't deemed to be bad enough for either to get a penalty, but he certainly didn't help himself or Coulthard for that matter.

[HatteWare]

He will win races but less than kimi.
He is fast and good enough to win 4 races this year, obvious include Istambul and Interlagos :cheezy:

That crash was Coulthard's fault, i think

[Jeeves]

Maybe, if he gets to start from pole, with Kimi nowhere near in sight. Of course assuming that Ferrari is easily the fastest car on the grid.

[friskshingo]

he will win races this year but less than kimi as others mentioned. But I am not sure if he will be able to maintain his position as a ferrari driver for the near future. Ferrari looks out for the best drivers that are competitive enough, but he doesn't seem to have enough of what they look for. and neither does sebastian vettel

[argyris_tifosi]

Yes of course he will win...

[vmarichetti]

He will! But thats not all about it. Its about keeping it consistent

[kingjamie]

I think that he will win at Turkey as that is his favourite track, even though he may spin at Turn 8.
