kimi will not go anywhere soon from ferrari and I agree that to have both KR and FA at the same time at Ferrari is suicidal. Although, if that was possible, we would see some amazing on-track fights for the first podium position at every race.

When Kimi goes, for whatever reason, FA will be the first choice for replacement.

I dont think so (thats to your last two points)

Maybe you have to remember what Ferrari said about MS 6 months before the sign of their contract...

I cant remember.

Luca admires FA's driving but also says he wants a team player and has stated that FA is not one of these. FA cannot tolerate a fast team mate so Ferari would have to go back to their old policy of handicapping their second driver.Ferrari will also not be keen to have an emplyee on board who is likely to grass on the team if he doesnt get his own way. He is too much of a risk.There are plenty of fast drivers around who do not have FA's personality problems (Vetel, Kubica, Rosberg, Hamilton to name the best) Many of those are contracted or may not wish to join Ferrari but there is plenty of choice around at the moment.

I agree 200% with everything you mention above, however, MS is also not a team player, MS would also not tolerate a fast team mate (who does??). and I also agree that there are plenty of fast drivers around, but none that could put a renault in P2.

MS was a team player in the sense he would never diss his team, that was one of the things I cud admire in him.
I think several drivers cud have put that renault, that light into 2nd.

They said: "Michael Schumacher won't be on Ferrari, never"

Schumacher was a team player. In exchange for being allowed undisputed number one status in the team, Schumacher knocked his pan in for Ferrari, keeping himself fit for the job, never giving up the races, not slagging off the team, doing a lot of testing and development work. Alonso, however, is out completely for himself. I find it sickening how at Renault, and I'm sorry to be crude, that they are wanking over him, when at the first sign of trouble he wants to bail out. He did so at the end of 2006 and is doing so now.

Ouch
Schumacher is behind Ferrari even after his retirement. I find unprofessional the way Alonso handled his arrival at Mclaren and what he is doing now to Renault. It's ok to make sure the team keeps motivated to give you a solid car, but to be constantly mentioning your availability to other teams is low. But then again... he's a 2-time W Champion and we're not...
