It was much better when Alonso was with Mclaren because Hamilton doesn't have any team competition as Kovalainen is such a bad driver I hate to see him in such a good car he doesnt deserve to be there. Hamilton is a very good driver and takes risks that pay off most of the time which could make him a legend in time.

Kovalainen can't be that bad, he did start in front of 19 other drivers Sunday

I'd actually like to see Hamilton in a lesser car, many good drivers can win in a great car, only great drivers win in good cars.

Exactly and look where he finished, it was his team mate that was 4th that won by 68's or more. I always said it was a bad move for him to come to mclaren and now its half way through this season and he still cant perform on the day and he cant use the excuse that he is still getting used to the car. Hamilton drives the same car and was behind Kovalainen on Sunday but yet because Hamilton can drive what the car offers he took the race from his team mate.

Your right many good drivers can win in a great car but many poor drivers cant win in a good car hence Kovalainen the way he drives you would think that he is driving the honda at times.

Mclaren are behind in the constructors points because they only have one driver that can produce points for them rather than two thats why they are 3rd they should be up there with Ferrari.

Jenson Button, Alonso or Weber would be a better fit, I don't dislike Kovalainen hes a nice guy but hes not right for Mclaren.

Let's not forget that McClaren also lost constructor's points when their 'ace' fell asleep in pit out in Montreal, hardly the mark of intelligent driving.

True he still has things to learn no doubt but he sure made up for his silly mistake on sunday and again thanks to Hamilton Mclaren are only in 3rd place.

RIP Senna, I wish I had been born earlier so I could have experienced his era in its full glory.

Has everyone heard the rumors/news about Bruno Senna possibly going to F1 by way of Toro Rosso?
