Ferrari Mailing List: Re: SPOILER

[Robert W. Garven Jr. (rgarven]

I dont like Alonso either. He is a whiner and a rat. I am a whiner so  
I can spot one from 3,000 miles away! The B.S. with the pit stop, the  
ratting out his team, (which I approved of but would he do it again?)  
The Singapore mess (I bet it was his idea!?) I liked Kimi as he  
parties hard and is the "Iceman" , but Massa is my favorite. I dont  
care who they get I hope Mass comes back aand wins the title. MS  
retired to help him partly and i think he has matured as a great  
driver and hope he gets well. I would like to se RB win the title just  
for all the bs he went through playing second fiddle to MS. Am I  
whining?  :-)
