I think it would be great for Formula 1 and for MS carrear for a dual betwen MS and KR in Ferrari...and i think in 2007 we might see Valentino in some back markers team, getting the feel for an F1 car...and 08 our great MS will retire when VL will battle it out with KR in Ferrari..oh what a dual it will be !

the word is that red bull wants JPM, but renault has been talking to him also... thats all rumors though, i don't believe any of it to be honest because it comes from an unreliable source: German Magazine Bild.

and also, I still think Kimi is going to end up staying at McLaren. Why would he switch to Ferrari who is struggling to get their engines into a second race. It wouldnt be about reliability thats for sure.

Ferrari will sort things out, dont worry about that. If he stays with Maca, i really really feel sorry for him...30 failuresi since 2001 for Kimi at Mclaren....i think that says something mr. Usually most of the rumors are true...i guess we will wait and see if these hold up!

the ferrari's aren't exactly looking all that reliable this year either though.. considering that 2 of the 4 ferrari engines from bahrain wont be racing in malaysia.. and its possible it might be 3 out of 4 if they switch MSC's engine
