Jabberwocky wrote:I thing if Alonso does not win this year or next then I think the Tifosi will be looking for their next hero.The team was nowhere near nowhere...Newey and all the key guys were in place, Vettel stepped into a great platform and took it from there. It was DC and Webber who brought a defunct Jaguar team onto a strong foundation to build from, and then comes a very quick driver to make use of the machinery.
Maybe they look into their past and see a young German chap who has brought a team from no where and turned them into a world championship team and won a couple of championships along the way. I am sure if they look at the grid they might find someone that will fit that bill.
