How long do you think Hamilton and Alonso will stick together at Mclaren?

a.k.a. how long do you think Hamilton will play second fiddle to Alonso?

Hamilton is not going to Play second fiddle to Alonso. He is too good to play the second man role. As you can see from todays race Alonso is now feeling the preasure and now we can see him making mistakes. I am sure Lewis is going to rewrite the books.

Ron dennis had said that the only advantage for alonso is that he will get pit strategy and thats about it. Hamilton and Alonso are treated equally and could overtake each other as long as they don't jeopardize their team.

Did you see poor Kubica's accident today?!? Man I felt bad for our boys, havent seen an accident like that in F1 for a while. Anyway, I must say that 22 year old Hamilton is doing an amazing job in his first season. Unless either one of them is offered a better contract with another team, I dont see why either one of them would leave. They're both awsome drivers in one of the top 3 best teams. So I see them both staying with McLaren for a little while. Im just glad that our boy Nick Hiedfeld took second today. I really want to see BMW at the top of the podiums and constructors championships. Well there are still quite a few races left in this years F1 season, no telling what could happen from now till then. But I sure dont like Fox's coverage of F1 comparing to Speed's coverage. They had no pre race walk about with peter windsor, and no post race interviews either.

Sticking together just like Senna and Prost?!? Ron may have to be a marriage counsellor again...

I don't think it will last....Alonso is already losing his cool slowly and surely (he's getting sloppy since the Spanish GP) with Hamilton's increasing success. They're two very different people with different temperaments.

I think, at this point, Alonso might fit into Ferrari better than Raikonnen-an emotional driver for an emotional team.

Neema · 06-11-2007, 04:09 PM

Yea Raikonnen is not doing well with ferrari at all

Driv3r · 06-11-2007, 08:49 PM

wow senna and prost....bringing back some sad memories man.
