I honestly dont want him to win it this year.  Kimi should have had 2 titles by now.  Long deserved one.  For me the fastest driver on the grid the last few years.

2003 (iirc) was engine failures, 2005 was just unlucky & to late a last minute charge at the title.

What he has been lacking is the car underneath him to get the job done.

Hamilton I expected to make an impact, but I think the british are really expecting to much from him atm, I think success came to early for him.  Ive been waiting all\season to see how he deals with something going wrong.  For the first time we have heard an excuse off him.

A career that partially resembles Gilles Villeneuve, an extremely fast lapper, and daring racer - just no championships under the belt.

He will win the championship at some point, but hes not getting younger and he needs the results.  When Totd retires at the end of the year, that could have a big impact on the team, so perhaps this is Kimis best chance...

I, too, am interested in how Hamilton will deal with situations not going his/McLarens way, this weekend I would not count as one of them - Im talking DNFs and silly blunders we have seen the World Champions do.  Hes only human.

I wish he would stop opening his mouth, and just stick to racing.

The last few races he has "rated mclarens chances".
