You have to go wit the experienced Coulthard surly? Let hope it not a one 'horse' race this year!

I think Raikkonen will start the year behind, but catch up and be better by the end. Coulthard is pants, there must be a regulation regarding extra downforce from his chin!!

Do you remember Monza 1995 when he spun off into the gravel on the warm up lap http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I know that's true because I was there! He also hit the pit wall when coming into the pits in Oz...a complete knob imo.

Raikkonen lapped Catalunya in 1:17.775 yesterday, that compares with Schumachers pole time of 1:18.201 last year.
His time broke all existing lap records and was by far the fastest time of any new car at the circuit.

Id like to see Coulthard get his ass whipped by Raikkonen as i dont rate him.
He can be quick yeah but he is so inconsistant.
Look at Monaco last year when he couldnt pass Bernoldi`s Arrows...what a plum http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Don't forget the cars always go quicker in winter testing, when the air is cooler and the tyre companies are trying out new componds.

If Kimi beats David, I think that's going to end David's F1 future, at least with McLaren.

I've never been a fan of Coulthard since he wouldn't help Damon in 1995 and cost him some points, and he's got a bloody square head for god sake http://www.turbosport.co.uk/images/smilies/laugh.gif

They should boil his head in fat!! The only reason he does any good is because of the car he is in at the time i.e. Williams Renault + Mclaren Mercedes, and funny how he has always been second best in these teams, he just shows no racing skill to me, he just goes round and round and round. I say stick him in an Arrows or a Benetton, and watch his F1 career fade away......

I have to agree if Raikkonen beats him this year his career is down the toilet.

I would like to se DC do well however as I always prefer a brit to win, but somehow he just doesn't seem to really have what it takes.
