who's got balls
After watching JPM driving, it seems he's got the most guts. Some of the overtaking he's done is quite amazing. He reminds me of Gilles villeneuve; someone who'll drive just as hard on the last lap even if he's got an impressive lead.
I wish driver's would understand that this is primarily a spectators sport and the only way that the sport will becoming even better will be with gutsy move. The drivers should have like alesi denounced TC. If they want to be considered the best in the world, they ought to drive like ones and not let computers and technology take care of their mistakes. |

Oh yes he is good and gutsy.
But maybe he should take a tranquilizer before starting, maybe he will be a bitt calmer. |

He drove the same way in CART -- balls to the wall.
He did, over time, learn to leaven his banzai style with a measure of patience. THAT is what brought him the championship. |

I see now...That his problem is that the left "brain" is not communicating with the right "brain"..

JPM, please don't change
I can see JPM improving with mor experience in the F1 arena, but I would not like to see him change his driving style one bit. He is great for F1, what we have been hoping to see for some time. A real challenge to the super confidence of TGF.

And their wonderful passings are not showen in TV, 'coz they're behind and usually we see that boring leaders for most of the time, if we haven't Bernie's TV. Returning to Montoya, he's been showing too much arrogance: to say "I'm the better, the others have mental weaknesses" or "I've nothing to learn at Monaco" is really stupid. I wonder if he has learned something last Sunday. |

As you are no doubt well aware, Peter, men often keep behaving under the influence of the former seemingly oblivious to the latter!

Monaco´s an anachronistic venue that is kept on the calendar for reason's that have nothing to do with racing and the core values of F1...not surprising then that JPM 'overflowed'
JPM was a little over enthusiastic ...so what ! Name me a class racer who hasn't had his fair share of cock - ups. Whats more JPM is a quick learner and he's honest...no opaque excuses from him.These two ingredients will stand him in good stead for the long term. As VB said he's exactly the injection that the sport needs. To watch such an exciting driver change his style to accomodate to F1 would be the final straw! |

He was even more inconsistent the next year. Although his car was constantly failing, he would put into the wall about as often. Sometimes it appeared to be other drivers fault, but it still happened. That said, he still managed a few wins last year, when his car stayed in one piece, and wasn't in smoke. All that said, I wouldn't make a big deal of his mistake in Monaco, it was only his second to take him out of a race this year. However if he takes himself out of many more, Frank will begin to ask questions. (remember Frentzen...) |
