I think as this is Heikki's first season with McLaren, He's gonna give a big surprise to us and McLaren that what he's really like - His Speed, His Abilities, His Skills,His Experience he's gonna give it his best shot!
Okay, i think I'm exaggerating! _________________

Heikki is (or has been, but I think he is) better than Lewis on Saturdays, he has even shown it with more fuel.
That's one of the basis for 2009, in actual F1, Saturdays are very important. (At least in the last 5 years) |

Heikki won't win a world title as he is in McLaren with a british team mate. Same situation as Alonso in 2007 (he should have won the championship).
Unless Heikki moves to another top team, or Lewis leaves McLaren (quite difficult), he can't win a world title. During this year he had to test for Lewis...during free practice sessions he couldn't find his set-up becuase he had to make long runs for Lewis.
I don't think Lewis doesn't deserve this world title, but even if I am a fan of McLaren I don't like the team being all around Lewis.
When Hakkinen and Coulthard used to race for McLaren, Coulthard could win races, could start from pole, could even fight for the championship (2001). Even Montoya had no orders to help Raikkonen, but suddenly Lewis has brought a change in McLaren's way of coping with the drivers.
And unfortunately I really don't like this. I hope McLaren can give Heikki a competitive car and a setup program not to help only Lewis.
Anyway my idea on 2009 is that Renault and BMW will be very competitive, but I expect Fernando to be World Champion.
Ferrari seems to have few information about KERS, so they won't run it (probably) and at the start they will be overtaken by at least 3/4 cars (since KERS gives 80hp extra, and this will be very important at the start).
McLaren appearently is on time with the development of the car, but other teams can be in a better position. I expect McLaren to win some races with Lewis, and Ferrari one or two races with Kimi.
Then I think Sebastian Vettel will win at least one race with Red Bull and Mark Webber will be competitive too.
Honda and Toyota will stay where they are; Toro Rosso without Vettel will score some points if confirm Bourdais, but nothing else. Williams seems to be better, maybe they will score some points more.
Force India will probably substitute Fisichella with McLaren tester De La Rosa and I think they will make a step forward with Mercedes-Benz engine, kers and hydraulics. I expect some points finishes for Pedro. |
