its really sad!! I just dont undesrtand whats going on in the McLaren team..,. Why were they never able to build a good car for kimi?? And now that hes gone they become WC... and now they forget about him, but he was even as good as Mika... If he had had a good car he would have been WC 2times by now!!
Yea its a big shame, I was a huge fan of his and it was a shame he never won even though he came so close in 03 and 05. Incidently he had a rocketship in 05, but it kept breaking down!
I confess i wanted Hamilton to win in 07, but i was pleased to see Kimi win it if Hamilton didn't. Long over due!
In retrospect they didn't become champions. They actually found a way to mess up even last year, as you likely know. They wouldn't even have won the constructors championship even if they weren't disqualified from it (if you take into account that they got no points from Hungary thanks to Alonso's antics). Looks like they can only fight for championships every odd year (2003, 2005, 2007 etc) and I'm not sure they'll be even close this year. Wouldn't be surprised if BMW beat them.
would have been more interesting if they had played a 'pirate' memory game, and the tuurns of the cards revealed famous real and fictional pirates, and kimi had to comment on each one
Kimi has been the best driver in F1 for 5 years (2003-2007). Unfortunately he had a poor car in McLaren and now Felipe is so much lighter (58 kg vs 70+ kg, i.e. 128 lbs vs 154+ lbs) that Kimi cannot beat him easily. Put a 14 YO 45-kg/100-lb girl in an F1 car and if her neck can take it, she'll kick ANYbody's ass. Lighter drivers should REALLY have additional weight put in their cars. This is unfair!
Body weight is CRUCIAL for good lap times AND for overtaking (so it affects both the qualifying and the race). If all drivers had body weight equalised to, let's say, 85 kg (i.e. the lighter the driver, the more additional weight added to the car), that would be much more REAL racing. Kimi's currently losing AT LEAST 0.250 s per lap due to his extra 12 kg weight against Massa. In other words, Massa can carry fuel for several more laps in the race. Plus, his centre of gravity is marginally lower.
So, in 2005, when Montoya was a LOT heavier than Kimi, he was actually faster!, cause despite not being adjusted himself to the new car, he matched him at a couple of races...
Juan Pablo is nearly 8 cm shorter than Kimi (167 vs 175), so the center of gravity is quite a bit lower. Juan Pablo's weight was 72 kg in 2005. When Kimi started racing in F1 in 2001, his weight was only 62 kg, which was a clear advantage (against Montoya and Schumacher, who was even heavier than Montoya). But by 2005, Kimi had a weight much closer to Montoya's. Remember that Kimi was 6th in his first race (in a Sauber), which is even one better than Schumacher's first Jordan race.
E.g. Lewis, on the other hand, entered F1 in the best car, so his results do not amaze me in a similar way. Plus, Kimi had a very limited experience in F1 (or any non-kart), Lewis had been "at home" in McLaren for "centuries". Don't forget that physical shape plays a major role. When Felipe is so light and his physical shape is OK (due to his tiny height) that cannot be compared to Kimi when he had 62 kg, because for his height, he was too thin (for the loads and strain of F1).
That is why drivers should be allowed to weigh as is optimal for their performance and then that weight should be equalised to e.g. 85 kg. If you saw that Fifth Gear, where Tiff drove a Williams F1 car, he actually said that 8 kg of extra fat were equal to 0.2 s/lap (the Williams crew told him). I am impartial. I just want to see good racing, not stupid predetermined results by different cars and different body weights!
Plus, there is a VERY SIMPLE and TOTALLY IMPARTIAL method - put different drivers in a single F1 car one by one and perform acceleration, braking and cornering tests without driver input. That would show you how much do heavier/taller drivers have to be better in order to achieve identical lap times. But, of course, that would take away the "aura" of coolness some drivers incorrectly have (e.g. Felipe). Felipe is not even in the top 5, yet he can still win the championship... :(
What I mean is that SKILL should decide the results, not BODY WEIGHT. Of course, if someone was FAT, that would be his own fault. But, as you can imagine, F1 drivers are not fat.

0.250 s per lap is e.g. 15 s in 60 laps, 19.25 s in 77 laps, etc. As you see, the impact is HUGE.

Kimi is such a great driver, but there always is something wrong with his car. I really start to think it is sabotage!
When he was at McLaren, in 80% of all races his car broke, or something else went wrong with him.
