Okay, some people can clearly not move on.

there are several threads STILL running with the use of the word 'fanboy' or wrong subjects STILL being discussed.

How about we discuss Monza in here?

My prediction:

1st LH
2nd KR
3rd A surprise podium appearance.

If the rain comes, Lewis all the way. Without rain, the red cars will be all frisky and cause drama handing the win to Kubica.

Looking at the forecast, there will be lots of rain.

We know that the Ferrari doesn't cope with a damp track on slicks and the Mclaren does, but what if everyone is on full wets?

If it is wet I can't see the Ferraris on the podium.
If it is dry it will probably be similar to the Spa running order (for most of the race). That is the current form.
So KR then LH then FM.

But possibly there is a higher than average possibilty of an incident amongst the leaders. Then we could get a safety car and anything could happen.

I reckon Kimi may have a point to prove if it's dry.

Something makes me think He may cut off his nose to spite his face when it comes to beating Massa....maybe he may retire at the end of the year so does not care about keeping ferrari happy?

A piece of me wonders if KR was not too bothered if he and LH came together at Spa.....to aid FM.

I can see it happening later in the season.

If wet I think the OP is about right, if dry I think Massa and KR will be out front with LH keeping them in view. Depends if Kimi is inspired to an awesome drive, or inspired to an awesome crash from trying too hard.

I think that LH will win if the weather is mixed through the weekend sessions.

If it rains throughout all sessions, then Ferrari will have the time to perfect their wet set-up, and minimise the advantage that McLaren have when changing from dry to wet configurations, or running a dry set-up in the wet.

BMW should be quick on WOT circuits like Monza.

It should be a good race. Looking forward to it.

Neck is right out here - Hamilton, but I hope it's close and they all make it without failures / shunts.

STOP

please, stop bickering.

i started this thread to get away from certain people and the continual need to have the last word. I cannot be arsed with it anymore.

If it carries on then I'll just keep reporting people.

Please.

You must be joking, I certainly was. If any catlick out there was offended by that they are WAY to sensitive about their beliefs. That and they think I'm going to hell because I don't believe a Jewish zombie is my eternal salvation, so long as I eat him on the weekend, so I'm not altogether bothered about that. Most of us spend our Sundays watching racing, not in on a pew.

I can see McLaren having the edge, dry or wet. In mixed conditions we know the Ferrari is too edgy.

And the way the McLaren gets the heat into it's tyres and keeps it there could be a decisive advantage in a wet race. Well, that and a driving phenom with epic car control. wink
