Now i know all of you are thinking no. He would be shocking, or some think yer he would suit them. Now i can't imagine Massa leaving, well when he becomes a Dad he might change his ideas. But Can you imagine Vettel + Ferrari? I can. I could imagine Alonso @ Ferrari since he was @ Macca. But with Vettel i can see them snapping him up asap. He could drive the car to a podium given this years Ferrari. So i do think if he was @ Ferrari i would like and if it mean't him winning this years WDC to get there then i wouldn't mind that really. Your views? As it has been floating around the paddock lately. Either Kubica which i don't think would stick to be fair. Vettel did make me wonder What if? I don't want Massa to leave unless he wants to or given a better team. But Vettel would be a good driver in a Ferrari, they would kick him into shape....And maybe make him a better driver...

Can you really get a team better than Ferrari? (current competitveness aside)

Kubica will hopefully stay with Renault. However he only has a one-year deal and if he continues to put in these strong results he could easily find himself alongside Alonso at Ferrari.

HOWEVER who says that Massa would go anywhere?

3 rounds gone and he leads the standings. So it isn't really a conversation to have lol.

My point lol. I don't want him to leave, but I reall think Vettel would be a awesome aset to the team. I can really see him in the all red get up would have to get a new helmet though. But he is in a really tight contratc with RB i bet. I think they have sponsored him for donkeys years? Since he was in lower Formula's?

But I do like a little shuffle in Ferrari. But i pray Fisi does not even get looked at if there is a spot

2 poles one win, should have been 3 out of 3 wins.... He ain't going no where!

[cap-dude]

It all depends. I think we could see Massa + Alonso till the end of 2012, when Alonso's contract runs out. Maybe even longer. But it will depend on how many world champioships are being won, and which driver is winning them.

We have to remember Jules Bianchi as well. The young frenchman is storming through the juinor ranks, and with links to Ferrari and Nicholas Todt as his manager, he's destined to drive a Ferrari eventually.

Yer i have kept in looking @ them boys and he was not too bad. But then again i doubt the links will make any difference to be fair lol. I can see the side your on about but @ the end of the day you hit the nail on the head. We have to see who has done best. I think if Alonso carries on the way he is he will win the WDC. I think we would just have to let them both test and see who is faster....(Vettel - Massa)

[bud]

Alonso continuing on getting beaten by Massa will win him the WDC?
Given the car superiority of the Redbull right now, i think the only logical pick for the WDC is Vettel

and why if anyone does well do they get linked to Ferrari? besides Ferrari have only just got their man in Alonso and Ferrari fans are already after a replacement?

Alonso is the only one to win. After the past 2 performances i think we can honestly say he is the biggest threat. No, this weekend was won due to lack of judgment. I can't see Vettel getting this title, and it just made me wonder if he could join Ferrari.....So don't jump Bud. It's intresting that people have spoke about Massa out & Vettel in. I thought we should discuss this.

Plus Massa has done 'Well' not the best. Alonso has, theres a difference.

Yes he is number 1 @ the moment. But we shall wait. 2 weeks time.

Massa beat Alonso in Australia and even without his engine failure would have beaten him in Malaysia thats 2/3 and even though he hasnt won a race he is leading the WDC at the minute so what more can he do?

And I still cant see how you would pick Alonso for the title based on the first 3 races. Vettel/Redbull combo has been the dominant force aside from reliability issues of course.

I do agree with the first line. But it's the consistancy, i support both of these remember. But if you look @ the dominance of the pair Alonso is more dominant. Plus he does not dare put a foot out of line! Oz he should of got past but it's his first year. He would be bollocked for asking if Massa can move aside. Today Massa was more dominant. But Oz & Bahrain Alonso was. I can see Alonso taking it or Hammy. Vettel is based on the car. When it comes to a fight he wont run with it a driver like Hammy or Alonso will & can!!

[bud]

How was Alonso more dominant in Australia if he didnt beat Massa?

[Jamie]

Started Last....came up....Couldn't get past Massa....He is more tlanted..i dont know if its because you don't like Alonso, but the records are set Bud....He is statistically better and i think 90% of people would agree with me even if they hate him. Like i dis like Hamilton but he is very taltented. I can't deny him that.

[bud]

nothing to do with liking or disliking someone i dont see the logic in saying a guy who has been beaten 2/3 by his team mate as being more dominant.....key quote in your post "couldnt get past Massa"

Because of this:

SV: “It has always been my goal to one day drive for Ferrari but continuity is also really important and that’s why I am with Red Bull. It’s possible to become world champion if you sit in one of the best cars and Ferrari knows how to build them. They will be right at the front all of the time, because their resources are on a completely different level to ours at Red Bull. I hope I will be making my own luck”

One undeniable truth in F1. Ferrari is F1. That is how they are seen by everybody and thats why every driver has a secret wish to drive for Ferrari. even LH
