The list is in works as we speak and the season goes on! we need to remember last year was Kovalainen's rookie year, this is Alonso's 7th and 5th with Renault. But regradless I'm just counting the points & where they finished and not paying attention to luck either (i.e how Alonso ended up in points in Australia when people in front of him screwed up/got screwed up).

Anyway, so far the results are as follows:

1st Race: Alonso 4th (5 pts), Kovalainen 10th (0 pts).
2nd: Alonso 8th (1pt), Kovalainen 8th (1 pt)
3rd: Alonso 10th (0 pts), Kovalainen 9th (0 pts)

Average: Alonso 7.3 (6 pts), Kovalainen 9 (1 pt)

I see another vodka bet in my future...

Alonso 6 heiki 1
while even being ridiculous you are still behind ...LOL..... keep nutbanging finn, the fact Mclaren where failed by their drivers where one even set the fastest lap and ran as high as 3 rd and no podium , pathetic at best......

Better pray hamilton brain fades the rest of the season , if not and he beats Kimi again, he will be just as forgotten as that other 1 wdc lucked in Finn....

Flying Finn

Correct, Alonso is leading (thanks to his luck in Austaria) but I'd like to remind you the season isn't over yet.
(It seems that you have not learned from your previous mistakes & predictions you've screwed up in the past...)

While you're at it, you should keep track of Heiki's record at Mac and compare that to Alonso's last season. Personally I think Hamilton is on the way down. I have to think his confidence is shattered. He is a choker! All these mistakes. It is a sign of someone overthinking about the wrong things. The team is getting tired of making up excuses for him as well. Maybe after RD is retired, Hamilton will be traded to Renault to be Alonso's whipping boy with Heiki being promoted. Now that would be funny!!!

Yes, Heiki makes a very good no.2 consistent and medium fast , good combination for backing up your fast but troubled no 1.

Fernando Alonso says he chose to leave McLaren at the end of last year because the Anglo-German outfit is "not a winning team".

The former double world champion is quoted by the Dutch website f1today.nl as justifying his return to Renault this year, following his spectacular falling out with British McLaren duo Ron Dennis and Lewis Hamilton in 2007.

"McLaren seem like a winning team, but they are not," Alonso said.

"Some teams are able to produce good cars," he said. "They seem like winners, but in fact they are not, like McLaren.

"They haven't won any titles in years, so I would rather be with Renault, who in the same period collected two drivers' and two constructors' championships."

Alonso said he decided to switch to Renault for the 2008 season because they are the right choice for the 'coming years', despite their lack of competitiveness at present.


"I could have gone to a couple of other teams, but ultimately Renault seemed like the right ones, with the experience, to make a good car and win races."

For the moment, however, Alonso is making no concrete commitment to the French outfit for 2009.

"Next year I want to be with a team that can win," he said.

"At the moment I think it will be Renault, because by the end of the season we will have made up a lot of our deficiencies and then we can make a small further step for the next season," Alonso added.

Wayne, Wayne, Wayne. Can't you see the hypocrisy in this press release?

"Renault is the right choice for the coming years" and "Renault seemed like the right ones, with the experience, to make a good car and win races". Then in the same breath he says "Next year I want to be with a team that can win" and Alonso is making no concrete commitment to the French outfit for 2009.

Is it me or were there 2 different people being interviewed here?

A.Wayne

He, He, He,

Yeah , kinda like Ferrari's press release saying they are happy with Massa or Mclaren stating hamilton front wing came off before hitting Alonso , what can i say IT'S F1 FOR CHRIST SAKES !
DOUBLE SPEAK IS NORMAL ...

mitch236

Wouldn't it be funny if Mclaren doesn't win the constructor's title this year either??

A.Wayne

manu, i don't care , now if hammy loses the WDC , crap another bottle for the finn , no way , hell NOOOOOOOOO !!!! that lame **** little kiddey , better pick it up and stop driving like a numbnut ..... i want back my bottle

mitch236

Hammy has a real problem now. He is behind in the points and next race, he's thinking "I have to win this one". He's going to push too hard and instead of eyes on the prize, he's got his sights set on the finnish line. One more messup and that will be the final nail on the coffin for this season. Maybe he will never recover. One can only dream.....................

ltc

Would you like me to hold your belt and shoelaces for you now?

multi21

Amigo we ride!!!!!!!!! Let him have his belt and chewlaces When Kimi wins the WC and Alonso doesn't get the "done deal" Ferrari contract at the end of this year, Wayne will finally be pushed over the edge.....

Ray S

You still want the bet (Kimi vs. Hammy straight up championship points).

Now that we are 3 races in (although still no Europe) I'll take it.

Let me know.

A.Wayne

LOL< Ray now you want to bet Haaaa, Ok wait until race 15 and i will give you a bet ......
The Finn is in , the rest can't test ........................................................................ ...........
