Formula 1 Season 2007: A Fresh Start

[sore_four_eyes]

Okay, Michael Schumacher has left the scene; Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen look set to dominate with McLaren and Ferrari respectively; Hamilton is the rookie to look out for; Renault is a big question mark with Kovalainen-Fisichella lineup; BMW Sauber's pace has been phenomenal; will Red Bull finally challenge for WCC title with Adrian Newey-designed car and former potentials David Coulthard and Mark Webber; will Williams get over dry season of points; will Ralf Schumacher and Jarno Trulli get along with their cars at last; will Super Aguri break the Top 10 based on amazing results in Brazil?

One thing's for sure: F1 in 2007 is incredibly random, exciting, etc. Who will win the WDC and WCC?

State your opinions on the 2007 Season HERE.

PS: I know that there's another existing Formula 1 thread, but it's sort of... dead. :roll:

haha...fascinating topic.. :D
apparently, Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen are still the favourites in this season...nevertheless, Hamilton is going to be dark horse due to his brilliant performance recently..
however, i still hope that other less favourable teams could challange the domination of Ferrari and McLaren in F1.... :wink:

[alamanda_star]

i think this season is kinda boring... no offence but without michael F1 is nothing.. eventhough last season he and alonso almost dominate the season but it's kinda interesting to see how they fight with each other to be the best..

for this season, it's kinda weird to see kimi in red and he still doesn't seem comfortable with both the car and team yet.. he looks unfriendly to the team and infact to massa too.. massa is clumsy just like before.. still couldn't handle pressure..hamilton is good... very good actually for a newcomer. nick is getting better while the renaults are getting worse. after all, for this season, sometimes you can predict from the beginning who will win the race... :roll:

hamilton wins canada fourth youngest gp winner ever well done.

[alamanda_star]

yeah~ hamilton won it..
so sad that i can't see the race because i have to study for my final... a lot of accidents and safety car came out for 4 times... black flag! i never witness it... how come massa don't realized the red lights? n i also never know that the pit traffic lights can turn to red during the race..

mc laren should thank hamilton for always winning the podium.. just wondering, before becoming the f1 driver, what's he doing? i mean, he's so amazing. He shouldn't wait this long to join f1... if he does join f1 last season,he will be competing with michael and alonso and f1 wil be more interesting...i adore the way he control the race in indianapolis even though alonso was giving him a hard day..

nop... Lewis Hamilton should thank to McLaren... 'cuz the time Lewis Hamilton spend with McLaren is longer than Fernando Alonso (Hamilton was signed to McLaren's development programme at the age of eleven).. Without McLaren, without the amazing show by him... Lewis is more similar to McLaren.. compared with Fernando Alonso, who just joined the team last year...

[alamanda_star]

maxx, u mean hamilton is the long term asset of mc laren? he has been trained by mc laren since 11? 8O no wonder he's so amazing even though this is his first season on track. he's the mc laren secret weapon... btw, who's mc laren 1st driver? alonso or hamilton?

ferrari's and mc laren's fan out there.. read this


Lewis Hamilton's boss broke down in
tears yesterday as he protested his
team's innocence in the spying row
rocking Formula 1.

McLaren chief Ron Dennis declared: "I
live and breathe this team," before
being overcome by emotion. "And there is
no way anything incorrect would ever
happen in our team."

Dennis: Extremely emotional

The sport is awash with speculation
following the suspension of McLaren's
chief designer Mike Coughlan for
allegedly receiving information from top
Ferrari mechanic Nigel Stepney, who has
been sacked.

Dennis, speaking at Silverstone three
days before Sunday's British Grand Prix,
added: "It's been a difficult two or
three days, especially for me.

"My personal integrity is very important
to me and my company's integrity is even
more important to me. We are working
very closely with the FIA (governing
body) and Ferrari.

"This matter does not involve our
company. Of course, that is not the way
everybody sees it at the moment,
understandably."

Hard facts are in short supply, though
it is now clear that the secret Ferrari
documents found at Coughlan's Surrey
home run to 500 pages covering work
patterns, information on race strategy,
design and test sessions.

A source outside Formula 1 alerted
Ferrari to the alleged collaboration
between Stepney and Coughlan, who were
colleagues in the Nineties at Benetton
and Ferrari.

One theory is that they were pooling
information with a view to taking on
senior roles at Honda, which would at
least give them a motive for potentially
career-ending behaviour.

Although Bernie Ecclestone does not feel
that McLaren's drivers, Hamilton and
Fernando Alonso, should lose points if
the team is guilty, the matter is in the
hands of the sport's governing body and
it remains a possibility.[/quote]

shocking news huh..

[StrikeFighter]

lewis hamilton gets poll amazing. i was looking at a website broadcasting the positions on the net and hamilton was down in fourth i was just about to label him shit in fact i did out of frustration for him not getting poll when a news flash appeared and he got poll. you havent won yet lewis but you're on the right track.

[chenchow]

With 6 more races to go, who would you guys think would be stunning?

Hamilton? Alonso? Raikonnen? Massa?

McLaren? Ferrari?

It is interesting to see the in-fighting between Hamilton and Alonso.

I am a Ferrari fan, but I guess, it is going tough for Ferrari to dislodge McLaren, still 23 more points to go.

[jayden]

I support Raikonnen but Hamilton is surprisingly good.

I think Mclaren will win the constructor's championship but the driver's championship seems rather open-ended at the moment.

[PJKru]

final race of the season. hamilton leads by a few points.
over alonso. raikonen further back. hamilton needs to be ahead of both to win the title. can he do it? what do you think?

[chiachean]

I think Hamilton will manage to grab the title, as long as he completes the race and gets at least 6th place.

If Alonso and Raikonen wanna get the title, pray that Hamilton doesn't manage to complete the race

[chiachean]

I support Raikonnen but Hamilton is surprisingly good.

Mclaren 's point is 0 now, Ferrari gets the constructor's championship, hooray
