Anyone think kimi raikkonen can stage a comeback this year?

Yes, starting tomorrow at the Monaco GP. Michael Schumacher is now where he belongs, at the back of the grid, although I would prefer to see him somewhere in the middle where he could be rear-ended, perhaps going through Ste. Devote on the opening lap. Poetic justice would be to see him make that qualifying `mistake' again at La Rascasse on the first lap; I wonder if he would again stall the engine!

i doubt it, he is just going to push Ferrari's new car to the limit and blowout every engine again ! (sorry to say that but i used to be a Mclaren Fan) stopped watching F1 cause its already being dominated. BORING ! try watching A1, Cheers

He's doing far better than he ended up last year.  I'd say that their team will end up top five in points this year and there's a good chance that in '07 they will be championship contenders.  I'm not a Jr. Fan either.  He's ok and I wish him the best.  Don't compare him with Dale Sr. either.  It's a different and far more competitive environment now vs. 20-25 years ago.

Yes, I doubt he's going to want to be teamed up with Fernando Alonzo next year.  He's pretty much at the peak of his game, if he had a car that could finish races.  He can dictate his terms to any team that is interested.

I tend to agree with you.\n\n1st - Kimi: One of the 3 fastest drivers in F1 today. Ferrari is the best team with the fastest car right now. Will it be the same comes next season???? If so, it's a no-brainer: He will win\n\n2nd - Massa: One of the 3 fastest. Same car issues as Kimi. His advantage is that he knows the team. It will be a close race all through the season between the 2 Ferrari drivers, but I still think Kimi is a bit faster\n\n3rd - Button: Honda's money and late progress will push him a little bit in the standings\n\n4th - Alonso: First year with McLaren will be the year of adjustments. Good progress for the team and a bunch of points including some victories, but no championship, even if Fernando is the other among the 3 fastest drivers in F1 today\n\nThe Renault drivers don't excite me at all! Fisico breaks down under pressure and makes mistakes on the track. Hekki is so new that he will do well, but it will be too early for laurels. Renault is very good, but I think they are planning for Hekki to mature and make him the N.1 driver eventiually.\n\nHey, of course this is an educated guess. Let's have some fun with some predictions! The truth is that it's impossible to know at this stage...but what fun is it to say that we have to wait for the beginning of the season, bla, bla, bla??? I gave you my forecats based upon the recent past. What is going to happen from now to the first races will shape the championship. Nobody knows who is going to do a better job. Well, perhaps the Super Aguri will win the title and the Ferrari will not score a single point!!!! Hmmm....or not!

At the moment it looks like a straight out fight between Fernando and Kimi. Honda, Ferrari and Williams look to be fast, but not fast enough to challenge for the drivers title, fast enough to be pests in the way though.

Yes schumi is back and back with a real vengance and message A message that not only the fast car will win races but also sheer determination to win and Team work will make a win... Great work schumi and great team work

He is, I don't think he deserves that formula 1 seat, there are so many better drivers than him around, ie. Pizzonia. I don't think he will improve much and I think he's taking someone else's seat in F1 because let's be honest, he isn't a great driver.

Im a tony fan and i wouldnt say so. the chase this year isnt going well as it is with all of the chasers wrecking, getting sick, and just plain old bad luck. this is just the type of racing tony is known for...that and his other style   lol

It's far too early to speculate; let's wait until all the car launches have happened and the drivers have put some test mileage on them.\nI can't imagine anyone would have predicted at this time last year that McLaren wouldn't win a race in 2006.

Personally, I would love to see him move to RENAULT & finish ahead of ALONSO and RAIKKONEN. \n\nBut, I would'nt be too suprised if he ended up at RED BULL, hopefully with COULTHARD, because the money would be better and lets face it, he's not really lived up to expectation at MCLAREN or WILLIAMS!

Unless something drastic happens, Fernando Alonso will repeat as Formula One World Driving Champion this year.

Their performance has been on a visible "up" in the last races of the season, Sato even getting to mix it out with the Red Bulls in Japan and Brazil. I think that they will leave Spyker as the tail-enders; lower midfield positions, for sure. Not very serious midfield contenders, but they do have chances to pick up to 4-5 points next year. High-attrition races will surely yield them points if they know how to stay out of trouble.

It's possible, since her comeback is impressive. For that to happen, she needs to improve her fitness and game, or hope there are quite a few upsets in the Slams for her to claw to the final. JHH and Clijsters would present the most formidable obstacles for her in terms of her trying to complete the Career Slam with a French Open title. She plays well in Australia, so that would be her most likely chance to win a Slam. At Wimbledon, she has to contend with  Sharapova, Mauresmo, Henin-\nHardenne, the Williams sisters, and others. I don't fancy her chances there with the fast courts. The US Open could be another tough place for her to win with the competition, the atmosphere, and the surface.

The formula 1 season is only 4 races in but fernando alonso won it in 2005 and my guess is he is going to win it again this year (he is currently in the lead by about 15 points).  I dont think he will three peat next year though as he has already signed to drive for mclaren next year replacing probably Kimi.

I've got a feeling M Schumacher could win this one. If memory serves (& it usually doesn't) I think he had a hand in the redesign of the modern Nurburgring. But, Kimi is always good here & alonso is living up to his World Champion Title.\n\nIf it was a money bet: Alonso.\nwho i'll be cheering for: Raikkonen\nwho i'll be grimmacing at while everything goes wrong for him on race day: Button

Yeah and Ferrari is going to give everything to make him win, i think he has a good chance, the new ferrari looks like its going to work ok and he is still the best driver out there
