Well, its almost like there nothing else he CAN say! "Yeah, I'm aiming to step gently into Fernando's role and take a strong 3rd place in WDC. I already started practicing some of my race-win antics, but not too many because I'm not going for the championship"

he should concentrate on beating his new teamate first. He's very optimistic in his comments concerning his chances of winning the title.

Well, the incoming driver has to concentrate on beating the team-mate... the established number 1 has to concentrate on beating the competition. Because Renault definately has the car to beat everyone, Fisi has to either admit he's not as good as the competition, or say that "this is my year". This is basically what happened to DC in his last 2 or 3 seasons at McLaren.

fizi definatley reminds me of DC. he is not wc material if you know what i mean Nola. In the begining of his career he showed potential but it all went downhill, just look at how he cracked under pressure in the last race.
I dont think that next year renault are going to be competing for any titles, maybe race wins, unless hekki will prove other wise.

This is rather sad. There was a time when Fisi was a pretty good driver and considered one of the up-and-coming talents in F1.

Remember how he consistently outpaced Alex Wurz when they raced fpr yej same team?

I can see the reactions now. "Wurz must have been an even worse driver!" (no pun intended)

But I wonder what happened to Fisi. Perhaps the pressure got to him?
