small note i know LH is prob abit down mentaly now but they have practicly the same fuel hekki and lewis and there very close.

Show's Hekki is quick even if he's race pace is abit meh

I don't think Heikki is as far behind Lewis as last year seemed to show. Remember, the MP4-23 would have been designed to suit Lewis and Fernando, who seem to take more out of the front tyres than the rears. Heikki, however, takes more out of the rears and thus seemed to suffer a lot with last year's car. Now that he's got one that's been designed with him in mind, he's able to show what he's capable of.

Remember, he was on or above Lewis' pace quite frequently during testing (particularly the longer runs) and he was the faster driver last weekend. We already know that, fuel-corrected, he's faster on a single lap more often than not.

Agree with most of what you say, not the latter point.Stil thinkl lewis can pull out some thing extra . He wont this weekend!

What? We saw it all through last year. cap-dude even posted a thread on it...

Ok there were times when fuel adjusted he was close. Yes I grant that, but in the race he was nowhere.

When fuel-adjusted he was faster nearly every time. I've already explained why his race pace was an issue. If you factor in the tenth or two that Lewis has over him naturally, the tyre-wear issue accounts for the rest.

Heikki was much better last year than his results showed. Yes. If you're trying to ell me he's on Hamilton's level...forget it!

You're clearly not reading what I'm writing, otherwise you wouldn't even be thinking that.

I'm sure Ant Hamilton would consider that blasphemy...

I'm sure it'll come out with some good ol' Vanish

Why the cross face?

You might as well just put it in the bin. That's where it belongs.
