Without being cruel to Lewis, waiting for he first rookie error is like waiting for the other shoe to drop. Although he does have a very mature head on those shoulders.

How he is going to handle the Brit media intrusion into his privacy doesn’t bare thinking about.

But can you amend my half to read, “I

“That would be tough to handle by anyone, even you two perfect examples of fairness and unbias.”

printed & framed in gold for my office wall, the next person who declares me to be harsh will be pointed to it, i’m officially fair & unbiased……will I get one framed for you as well?

That would be tough to handle by anyone, even you two perfect examples of fairness and unbias.

And as to his expecting to be a no. 1, try looking at this way; I don’t think he came to McLaren to be upstaged by a rookie. I don’t think anyone could have foreseen Hamilton’s brilliance. It is not unreasonable for Fernando to say I came here to save you, I expect to be the no. 1 shoe, let the kid wait his turn. I don’t necessarily agree with that appoach, but I can see Alonso wanting that support.

poor… poor wittle Fernando!

While he is at it, he can stop the histrionics of swerving at the pitwall to protest a percieved wrong. If he can beat Schui to 2 world titles he is up to handling a rookie team mate. I always respected Alonso, however his petulance & attitude at Indy has almost cost him my support. This is almost as bad as Schui demanding No.1 status in writting, Alonso seems to what the same thing by proxy, a sort of de facto agreement. He is a mega talent…..he knows how to use it.like the Nike ads say “just do it”

As for pressure in a poorly performing car, who is capable of that in this era? The cars AERO designs prevent it. The race is usually won and lost in qualifying, and McLaren have proved themselves the unequalled masters at timing the last lap perfectly.

The top 4-5 shoes are separated by a whisper in the talent department. And No, I’m not counting Ralfie amongst them! Put Kimi in the McLaren and watch him go. The actual differences between Alonso and Hamilton are measured in thousandths of seconds. Except where it counts, betwixt the ears. That Spanish macho I’m the champ attitude doesn’t help, and Lewis just grins and wins. I actually feel sorry for Fernando.
