there are so many facets!

1. the faster: Kimi
2. the most consistent: Fernando
3. the hungrier: Fernadno
4. … and so on

but i guess the real question is:

“Who has better chances of delivering the Championship for Ferrari?”

and the very clear answer is: Fernando!

Don’t have scientific proof for this but it seems neither are super super good in the wet? Of the current lot I’d say Rubens usually produce something special (again not that I counted the results, more just my impression….)

James, in fact, Alonso is the second Spanish driver to compete for Ferrari. First was Alfonso de Portago, who died in an accident in 1957, during the Mille Miglia:

they are LOVING this in Spain at the moment. i dread to think what its going to be like next year.

at the moment, even when FA comes in third, its all they talk about on the news – never really mention who won!

Bav,I didn’t witness the exta pace of Kimi’s over Lewis at Spa last year,in fact it took biased FIA intervention to nullify the result from Hamilton’s searing speed.As for your point about Schumacher being over rated,did you think the other twenty odd drivers gifted him his SEVEN WDC’s,he lacked etiquette protecting his race line,sometimes dangerously but over rated ?.”I think not”.Love him or hate him he was dynamite.Agree strongly with the first sentence of your post though.Ferrari best hide any controversial material from this chap or he’ll blackmail them with it if Felipe starts to dominate which is a possibility. God speed Felipe.

Don’t forget that big slug of the money would have ended up in Briatore’s pocket. The deal was signed way back and doubtless was watertight to take care of the eventual outcome when Teflonso finally moved.
