Hmm lessee, he won once, then finished second in the next race, then finished third in the race after that, and you say he's improving?

Yes i think he's improving because in the German GP he could have come 1st but when he came out of the pits and went around turn 2 he didnt realise that Hamilton was there and didnt go defencive.

And he could have come 1st in that race.

And now, he is coming in the top 3 in the races and has a good chance against vettel in the races.

No one is catching Vettel. Alonso has been more consistent than the guys he's fighting for second, yes, but Vettel has been just as consistent ALL SEASON at the front there.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

Hamilton was just faster in Germany. SImple. McLaren has the better form, their drivers would be feeling better than Alonso going into Spa.

I agree they should have a new driver for fferarri as Alonso has made a contract allready, but i think there is need for a new driver, as massa cant keep up with the mclarens and red bulls as good as Alonso.
Maybe Kobaiashi, Diresta and drivers like that.

You guys underestimate how good RB is.Look at Webber,he has zero wins and he's 2nd in the standings.

I think Ferarri have their own agenda with someone definite in mind. They will be biding their time with Massa until whoever, it is, is ready. Don't be surprised if it's somebody none of us know.

In the last 3 races Alonso has finished 1st, then 2nd and in the hungarian GP 3rd, i think Alonso is back on form and confident with the fferari car and is trying to get at least in the top 3 in the championship title race.
There is only 4 points seperating the 2nd to 4th drivers, this includes:

Webber : 149
Hamilton : 146
Alonso : 145

Very close and i think there might be a chance for 1 of these to beat Vettel as they are 85 points behind and that's 3 wins for 1 driver.

So i think Alonso has got a good chance of winning, as vettel has not won in 3 races.

Here's a cold shower for ya

Kobayashi could be a good call, as they might be able to negotiate that with Sauber, like say give them discounted engines if they allow Kobayashi to join Ferrari

Yes , Kobaiashi is a good driver and as you said they might be able to negotiate with Sauber.

Yup, Domenicalli has said they are looking for a Very experienced driver with a surging young fella. Kobayashi fits the bill (even though he's not as young as his F1 career). Di resta still needs to show a bit more of himself, but he's on the other side of the fence, ie the Merc camp.

Let's see how it goes. It seems Massa will stay there for 2012, but he really needs to focus and get a few solid races. He has shown the pace on ocassions, now he needs to string a couple of solid weekends.

Came out fighting indeed.
