a letter to itv commentator james allen

dear james,

greetings. this letter is about the kimi vs. jpm comment u made on itv f1 coverage in the brasillian gp. we would like to offer you another angle on things you didnt see. and yes, we are die hard kimi-macca fans.

we are pretty sure that we payed a bit more attention on wot kimi and juan pablo did through out the season than you did. and we are sure that so did our principal ron. and there are reasons y we make kimi our driver of the year, although u can argue it's fernando since he's just clinched the WCship. to be fair, we start counting after juan pablo returns fine and fit.

yes, juan pablo had been very good for us, winning 3 of the last 7 GPs, but so did kimi. u might argue that he should hav won the one in belgium. and we will reply that mclaren din fueled kimi up for nothing. the strategy was ment to make kimi overtake juan pablo during the pit stops by himself and not juan letting kimi through. wot do u think the hot laps were for? kimi's fastest lap was a dazzling 2.1s off juan pablo's in the wet! he did that for fun? if that still doesnt convince u, we will say the win belongs to kimi anyway coz unfortunately juan pablo went out in the accident with pizzonia.

and look carefully, juan pablo won the british and italian GP. please let us remind us all that kimi had engine changes in those 2 GPs. heaviest fuel load in silverstone he went on from P12 to finish P3; qualified fastest with the again heaviest fuel load in monza and went from P11 to P4! and that was inspite of the left rear tyre problem! and yesterday, yes, locking up those tyres in qualy was kimi's own fault, but still, the way he went from P5 and nearly overtook juan pablo in the 2nd stop, wont u rank him the best driver in the field?

if that isnt enough, here's more. just 5 GPs ago, kimi went out first in qualifying in the dustiest hungaroring thanks to the brilliant new rules. 26hrs later, he became the winner of the 2005 hungarian GP against all odds. fernando won french and german GP with kimi's engine change put him P12 on the grid but finished P2 and retiring from the lead due to hydraulic failure in the later. and ofcoz winning turkish GP convincingly from pole. that's the 2nd half of the season after US GP.

perhaps not the one yesterday, but we thought kimi would hav won every single one of them if not the mechanical problems he suffered. to include those early in the season, he could hav been WC as early as monza.

nevertheless, we are enjoying and celebrating the strong performance put on by macca recently. good to hav monty back winning races, we congratulate fernando on being the youngest WC ever, but kimi is still the driver in our eyes. we apologize if the comments are too critical. enjoy the rest of the season and the fight for the constructor's championship.

warmest regards.

your sincerely,
ice-agers
