I think it is a real shame that Massa has been changed by his involvement with Ferrari.
He used to be one of the honest, nice guys in the sport. Now he is full of sh*t. Every problem is someone else's fault. I would have far more respect for him if he came clean and said 'It was our fault and the release was unsafe, I'm very sorry' or 'the red mist got the better of me and I punted Hamilton off' or 'I needed to get past Bourdais and it was a racing incident' and of course 'I'm really grateful to Kimi for letting me through'
He learned well from Master Michael

Great question Cos.

I don't think Alonso would have the problems Kimi is having with the car because it understeers like a pig and he likes understeer so I would think he would get in it and beat Massa.  However that doesn't make him better than Kimi just more suited to the car.

If Alonso was in the Maranello pressure cooker with a problem he couldn't deal with and having to play rear gunner to Massa it would be like last year times ten.  Last year at least he never had to play rear gunner for Lewis and at least he knew Lewis was a bit special.  Having to play second fiddle to Massa while dealing with Ferrari politics and the Italian press would probably cause his head to explode. 

I think the guy who repairs door hinges at Ferrari would be a busy man and have to wear a crash helmet.

Spot on Steven.

I think I'd give him a maximum of 3 GPs at Ferrari with Kimi.

At least Ron managed to remain polite and calm for a whole year, even when he realised that Alonso was screwing up a probable Mc Laren Championship year.

I can't see Luca di MZ do that. The fireworks display in Maranello would be seen from Spain.

I hadn't thought of that JB.  Luca's response would be worth watching.
