prediction

My (obvious) prediction: kimi will f-l-y. He's never had a car designed specifically for him before. The montoya/kimi cars were particularly compromises. Michael always had a tailor made car at ferrari. The bridgestones also were Michael-spec. Those two guys drive differently. Understeer / oversteer etc. 2007 was basically getting into Michael's car, and kimi still won the championship. 2008 is the first "kimi-spec" ferrari. No need for rear view mirrors this year, which could shave another couple of tenths if they wanted to.
