Dec. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Fernando Alonso, who ended Michael Schumacher

 

Poor Renault! Just when they're on top of the world things fall apart.

I just hope they continue the sport after 2007.

 

I don't blame Fernando for leaving Renault, even though they had a superior car to McLaren last season.

Let's be honest, it's kind of an unpredictable place over there, Flavio seeming to kick out drivers who appear to be doing their jobs well (i.e. Jarno), and turning his back on his winning drivers (i.e. not showing up for Fernando's championship celebration party). It's like a wierd vibe exists at that place...

I would guess he'll be replacing Montoya, who has had some shining moments but is usually good for just laughs at his rookie-like mistakes.

Kimi should have won last seaon anyway, so the team pairing should make for some great races, as long as the cars keep running and Kimi doesn't get pulled over to Ferrari in 2007.

Cheers!

Eh, for the first part of the season. The second half or so, the McLaren was THE machine to beat.

 

Agreed. If Kimi could have consistantly landed a pole position a little higher than DEAD LAST no team would have finished on his lap.

 

Pretty easy to beat a machine that keeps failing!

Renault showed incredible reliability in comparison to McLaren, which is why I stand by my opinion that they had a superior car...PACKAGE.

Imagine that, Kimi + Fernando, McLaren will dominate F1 once again... Only thing missing is a Honda engine.
