I guess Hamilton is not very happy though. Kimi is not Kovalainen and I don't think he would accept any secondary role. We'll see if they car really handle both drivers, Lewis is not very good handling pressure, he is not a rookie anymore and Kimi can be really good (from time to time and with the right motivation). And besides, I find difficult to imagine Alonso not getting a lot of poby Ali - F1

Anyway, things seems to be moving...Montezemolo admiting that they still hace to confirm their drivers...Kimi speculating about a possible future out of ferrari...alonso saying that he has made up his mind about his team in 2010 but nothing is yet signed...

I would get rid of this "freezing engine rule". It does not have any sense to introduce this rule and year after year let some of them do some changes. Indeed, some engines are better than others, this is how it has always been, this is not a "monocup" competition, there are different chassis, engines, etc.... This is how F1 is and has always been.by Ali - F1

I think that: Alonso will go to Ferrari in 2010, 95% sure. Kimi will leave to another team i F1. I don't see him leaving F1 though. Maybe Toyota which is trying to get rid of Trulli. Kubica will go to Renault.by Ali - F1

They are all extremely equal!! Except Hamilton and Kovy (wjho seems they got the time in a quali run), times are extremely tied!!!by Ali - F1
Well, well,....The R29 and Alonso were great in the twisty and slowest part of Nurburgring (first sector) last race...So I'll bet for a great position from him. Enough to beat the title runners? Probably not, but good enough to be close top them. I think Red Bull will keep winning and behind maybe Ferrari-Brawn-Renault(Alonso) could fight for the 3rd spot in the podium.by Ali - F1
Do you have the problem since the very beginig that you launch GP4 or just when you actually try to play (can you see the menus?)? This can provide some information. Also, Windows XP has an event log, you could try to see what happens there: Control Panel // Administrative Tools // Event viewer. Sometimes helps very little but others may have some useful information and lead to something more coby Ali - Grand Prix 4

Kimi is not the one he was I think. He doesn't seem too motivated and definetely Ferrari needs someone more competiive and eager to win and that's not Kimi...Massa is pushing much more under difficult circumstances.by Ali - F1
I don't rely to much on As newspaper, honestly. But, Alonso-Ferrari link rumor has been moving around for loooong long time, Spanish Bank "Santander" is involved with Ferrari for next year and it is a fact that Botin (Owner of the Bank...or one of them - I am ignorant in bank hierarchy stuff-) and Alonso have met in private a few times this year so what I believe is that there is sby Ali - F1
Will the three teams enter F1 anyway despite some of the rules will be kept for the 2010 championship? Anyway, USF1 was going to be anyway. Marco Andretti maybe? with Danica Patrick (very mediatic one)? Graham Rahal (a youngster)... Campos (Dallara-Cosworth team) seems to be interested in De la Rosa after Gene said 'no'. Probably plus some other GP2 driver. Rosberg was rumored mby Ali - F1
Don't ignore the possibility of Alonso to Brawn if Rubens retires (or continues driving like he is). Ross Brawn always wanted Alonso and now he has good arguments to offer him something really good. But anyway, this can be the more shocking change in F1 in history with plenty of new trams going in, FOTA teams almost out...so who knows...by Ali - F1

Well, the guy, despite being world champ, is very young and he has little experience dealing with average cars. I suppose he'll learn from it. In fact Alonso now is driving quite a crap car but he is much more relaxed than his initial times at Renault hence doing a better job I think, so I don't give that too much importance.by Ali - F1
Well, I suppose Alonso tries to get rid of some pressure. His pace is quite good, I don't think is that far from the BMW or even Ferrari. Brawn GP is another story and who knows what are they really doing...by Ali - F1

In my opinion McLaren is having problems. With the limitation of tests I don't see the point on using still the 2008 rear wing. Are they so sure that its 2009 will be fast enough without tests? The changes have been so radical that hide speed without putting everyting in tests is nonesense to me. Most of the teams are running 500Km per day with its 2009 car.

Well, about that "racist insult"...As far as I could see, it is a "private dialog" between a few group of people, they are not shouting him "begro de mierda" or doing an evident show of racism so there is no point starting again with this "spanish racism topic".by Ali - F1

What a big difference between Alonso and Piquet...mmm... Is McLaren having some problems with its 09 contender? I think Kovalainen set his fastest time with the hybrid car again.by Ali - F1
