Friend Ferrari mechanics have said that Kimi is not technically strong Driver like Alonso..thats why..To be honest Alonso is the best Driver. Ferrari should have signed him

Kimi will prove not only you but the entire Alonso fans that why he was chosen ahead of him by coming in Top 5.

Yes. Kimi will finish in Top 5 only when he finishes a race. He has a terrific(!!!) record of finishing two out of every five races.

Very tough, I guess you dont know anything about Monaco circuit.Overtaking is very tough.My prediction goes MClarens, Massa, and the BMW drivers will be the first 5.Honestly Kimi is a more hyped driver.he doesnt possess the skill of Alonso ....

Blitzkrief, we meet again! Let me just add to your comment....Kimi is more than Alonso's equal when it comes to driving skill. The difference between the two is that Kimi always pushes the car to the limit (remember how he refused to pull in for a wheel change in 2005 and ended up totalling his Mclaren on the penultimte lap? If he had gone for a change, he would have finished 2nd, taken 8 points and won the championship, which as we all know went to Renault) Alonso, on the other hand, is 'softer' on the car - that doesnt make him the better driver, though it does make him a superior strategist. The real hero, unsung as of now, is Hamilton....that boy has what it takes to be a legend in the Schumi/Senna league. And Massa is definitely a dark horse here. Monaco will be an interesting race!

Jagat saab: Astute analysis, well said!!!do come forward at every discussion and enlighten the rest of the self proclaimed Buddhas of F-1, To articulate what u have said, Kimi and Alonso are extremes in terms of styles., Schumi ranks higher than the other2 coz he combined the 2 approaches most effectively -"Mad Aggression: Always under control", hardly a mechanical failure when he drove...except at Suzuka last year...am i right???
