Alonso deserves to win it this year, a good time for Fisichella though

[O.D.S]

Alonso definatly deserves to win this year as you said, but i cant help but feel for the bad luck kimi Räikkönen has suffered once again this year.

[Crow]

yeah he's had a good year....im glad to see that Ferrari wont be winning the constructors too

[O.D.S]

im glad to see that Ferrari wont be winning the constructors too

but with the new V8 engine rule taking effect next year Ferrai will be very competitive agian IMO, maily because they have expirience and a production line of road going V8 engines.

My predictions for Turkish GP:
1. Kimi Räikkönen
2. Fernando Alonso
3. Juan Pablo Montoya

(that is ofcourse if the McLaren-Mercedes can last the whole race)

Kimi gets another 2 points off Fernando...makes a change from the past 5 years cause Schumacher had usually won it by now

Button at Williams next year will be good to see
