Piquet jr more of a threat than Hamilton..

Personally I want Piquet jr to wipe the floor with Alonso. And I think there's a pretty good chance he can do it too.

Well in short I don't think Piquet will be much trouble for Aloneso. I just don't rate him and certainly not as highly as LH. They've both competed in similar formula, sometimes even side-by-side, and Piquet just didn't shine as much and never has, IMO. I expect the same difference of talent to be as apparent in F1. He's a good driver no doubt, and good enough to be in F1, but there's just too much of his father in him and too much Senna in LH...

Much as I dont like Alonso, I cannot imagine Piquet jr beating him. He is twice world champion afterall, and he is very familair with the tyres now, unlike the beginning of last year.
