Kimi or Mclaren (a fan of both) paano na???

**Helios** · August 4th, 2006 03:14 PM

fan of räikkönen here and scuderia rosso. deadly combination, although sad to see kimi and schumi as possible teammates instead of archenemies. i'm a fan more of murray and if only he was still part of the mclaren Form1 troupe, things would've turned out differently.

kung sa akin lang dun ako susunod kay Kimi. it's the drivers that really give a face to the sport, and madalas din bumalimbing ang mga automakers lke Mercedes (like nawalan ako ng gana sa Williams nung umaklas ang BMW)

Felipe Massa is an example that shows the car is a major factor in what makes a driver a star. Driver skills in the upper echelon are already blurred that you can never say Michael Schumacher is the best driver in the world. It may be because he is lucky enough to be driving the best car around. When Ferrari had problems last year with regards to its chassis design and tires, Schumacher was nowhere in contention. Just like Barichello is in a doldrums today with Honda.

McLaren is 40% owned by Mercedes-Benz kaya medyo malabo silang bumalimbing. Williams and BMW were only tied together by an engine deal.

that is an interesting argument, but has nothing to do with the point i was trying to make. i was just saying that imho, people identify more with the driver first, the automaker second, and the team third.

i have a feeling that hens likes Kimi because he's a great driver, but also likes McLaren Mercedes because he owns a Benz and admires the marque. so he's really a Kimi fan and a Mercedes buyer. so, if all that is true, i'd follow Kimi.

Saw a message posted in another forum, that Kimi has signed on for 5 years with Ferrari starting next season. Haven't verified it independently yet though

Everyone just wants to be the first to break the news about Kimi in the internet discussion boards. But the truth is, there is no official announcement as of this writing.
