Ron Denis is willing to pay big $ for the right driverI'd like that to happen, but I don't see it. Maybe after Ron retire, or if Mercedes takes over... as it is, considering his friendship with Alonso (and Alonso's experience in McLaren), I'd really be surprised if Kubica even walks-by close to McLaren's garage.

Le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît point. 

McLaren Fan wrote:my dream team would Alonso and Kubica.We all know I dont care for Alonso 'the person' after last year's fiasco but I have alway's admitted he is a very very talented driver, Robert and Fernando would be a very competative pairing.

Although Hamilton has the potential to be a great driver and shown some flashes of brilliance, his gaffes and subversive personality put me right off him. At the minute, my dream team would Alonso and Kubica.Agree with all 3 sentences.

Here is a quote from an article by Tony DodginsUntil Hamilton drives right into the back of Raikkonen, and subsequently lashes out against his own team, blaming them for his own mistake. Like I say, Hamilton has shown flashes of genius, but he needs more time to develop. Alonso, for instance, does not. Furthermore, Hamilton has to lose the attitude. I would not want a jumped-up, subversive clown like him working for my organisation. What Hamilton needs is a year or two driving for a team like the old Super Aguri to kick him back into touch.
"A ground-level camera at the first chicane superbly illustrated the margins Hamilton was playing with. The confidence was absolute.So close was rim to concrete that it was almost impossible to believe it was judgement, not luck. But it was. You waited for the shunt and it never came. If there was another driver flirting with shattered carbon fibre almost as outrageously, it was Kubica."
Thats where the 6 tenths came from and thats where the win came from. The two most talented drivers.

So yeah... there's your compliment
You also have to compliment the MP4's ability to handle direction change / weight shift. This is by far the MP4-22 and 23 's strongest feature. On the other hand, look at turn 8 in Turkey...
