This article just popped up on the BBC, let's assume Massa is gone, who do you reckon will be picked? My moneys on Di Resta; however Ferrari never pick anyone who is a young driver.

Interesting... if Ferrari drop Massa, their driver line up may actually be fascinating for the first time since....................erm...................before I was born.

Alesi and Berger were an awesome pairing. Schumacher and Massa were pretty interesting. Raikkonen and Massa were another good pairing.

You didn't like Kimi and Massa?

I dunno. Despite (just) winning a WDC, Kimi at Ferrari wasn't what I expected after watching him at McLaren, somehow, it's hard to really say. Massa has never excited me either.

It's been a long time since Ferrari have had a truly great pair of drivers, some real characters. Di Resta or Hulkenberg partnering Alonso would be a brilliant line-up.

Schumacher and Alonso

they plucked Massa when he was quite young, They seem to like Sauber drivers so maybe Koby is in for a shot.

Kobi has been disappointing this year, IMO.

I would very much like to see Schumi back at Ferrari next year, but I doubt it's gonna happen.

I'd guess DiResta as well. He won't be going to Mercedes, Red Bull, or McLaren in the foreseeable future. Lotus is pretty well set with Kimi, although Grosjean could be on the fence if he continues crashing.

It's funny, I always pictured Perez at Ferrari and DiResta at McLaren.

I'd love to see Hulkenburg in a Ferrari, though I think their best bet is to stick with Massa for one more year, then bring in some fresh blood for the 2014 regulation changes.
