Alan Henry: New wave versus old guard.

Wednesday, 1st November 2006

Kimi could win a lot of races in 2007, but only if he sharpens up his act and starts focusing more sharply on the job in hand.

Of course, both Button and Massa won't be underestimating the pressure they could face from their team-mates in 2007. Jenson may have exerted the upper hand over Rubens Barrichello this past season, but if 'Ruby' catches his stride and demonstrates the sort of potential which won him nine GP victories for Maranello, then the Englishman might find his biggest competition coming from closer to home than we saw this season.

As for Massa, he has a bigger challenge in the form of the dynamic Kimi Raikkonen, possibly the fastest driver in the entire GP business. But Felipe is not going to be a pushover. In my view, Kimi could win a lot of races in 2007, but only if he sharpens up his act and starts focusing more sharply on the job in hand.

Otherwise, he might have the shock of his life.
