Do you think Lewis can do a Kimi?

Question

that is start from 13th and end up in the podium...

Answer 1

Hum, maybe, a lot of the cars in front are slower and at Magny cours its possible to do a 3 or even 4 stop strategy, I think its down to Lewis' driving..... I think 5Th is a realistic-ish target.

Answer 2

.

JESUS!! I thought everyone was starting to look like GATORADE....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

Until Lewis comes back from the very back of the grid to win, i'll always consider Kimi the better driver, and a deserving champion.

Answer 4

highly doubtful, Kimi looked real strong in Q.

Answer 5

No i dont think he will, he might put himself under too much pressure and make a mistake again.  I can see him ending up 5th, but I wish him well

Answer 6

No way. He'll end up somewhere around 5-8 place. Kimi is special!

Answer 7

Oh, I thought you meant ram Adrian Sutil up his back side.  He can definitely do that, if Sutil wheren't so far back.  

The grid is really tight this weekend - so many cars with similar lap times.  1.004 seconds covered the first 14 cars in Q2 yesterday.  That means it will be hard to pass.  If there is rain, LH has a better chance but otherwise I don't see it happening.  

Note - - I think Kimi ended up "on" the podium, not inside it. LOL

Answer 8

Isnt it the perfect settings? 2005 , Kimi qualified 3rd, started 13th and finished second. 2008, Hamilton qualifies 3rd and starts from 13th, in the same track. McLarens for both of them.

A few hours from now McLaren fans will get a real comparison between Kimi and Hamilton. My answer is that Hamilton doesnt have the wares to do what Kimi did (Kimi had to deal with the likes of Schumi, Montoya and JV). Seventh or eight is the best Hamilton will get.

Two weeks ago we came to see how arrogant Hamilton was and now we will see how much of racer he really is.

Answer 9

no. kimi is stronger than lewis.

Answer 10

Hamilton is good at overtaking but i don't think he is as experienced at this point as Kimi was to be able to take a podium from 13th.

Answer 11

Maybe, but I very much doubt it. He wants to, but other drivers want their points too so it is going to be far from easy for him. I think this is Ferrari's race. I'd like to see him there, but I think he will be 5th or 6th. obviously as a McLaren fan I would like to be wrong lol

Answer 12

I doubt it... LH seldom finished more than what he qualifies.. look at his record in 2007... he usually qualifies 2nd and ended up in 3rd or 4th place... in the European grand prix wherein he qualifies 10th, he only manages to finished 9th... he usually have difficulties whenever he starts in the middle but I would surely believe in him if however he reaches 4th place that is without any accidents or bad lucks going the drivers from 10th to 5th in the grid if that happens he is one lucky !@^%$&Q...

POST RACE EDIT:

L:H is improving... he gained two places.. I salute him for doing his own wrong doings...

was that the greatest driver ever?
