Just note USA doesn't like F1 (since 1981)

Hungarian GP, 1997. Last laps just when damon's problems had just begun:
(Louise Goodman has just reported that Damon Hill was on the radio with Tom Walkinshaw)
Murray: "How do they do that, Martin? How does a man talk calmly and especially to his team boss, when Damon in the situation he's in?"
Martin: "Well, you press a little button on the steering wheel and start talking, Murray. There's a little speaker in the front of your crash helmet..."
(excerpted from the "Brundle's Quote Central")

Alonso will win, but Kimi will make him work for it.

Yeah, another Ferrari 1-2 wouldn't be good just as F1 has got good again without them winning any more!

right, thanks. I like wet races because they always look good, but it's just the prospect of Ferrari 1-2s that don't sound good at all!!

Kimi will win he totaly dominated silverstone testings last week .btw here is some intresting info :

SEASON 2005 LEADED LAPS:



Kimi Räikkönen 202 Laps in lead - 864 km in lead- leaded in 5 races

Fernando Alonso 163 laps -864 km - 5

Giancarlo Fisichella 55 laps - 292 km - 2

Jenson Button 5 laps - 25 km - 1

Jarno Trulli 4 laps - 22 km - 2

Michael Schumacher 3 laps - 15 km - 1

Rubens Barrichello 1 lap - 6 km - 1

David Coulthard 1 lap - 5 km - 1

the only thing that can be very bad thing for Kimi is that he will need to make his qualifying lap quite early and Canada is very dirty track .

He will have #10 at qualy, so thats not so bad, considering, that he is the best.

EDIT:

remember Spain 05, he was 3rd out, made a mistake and still finishe only 24/1000 behind the leader in quali 1.
