He's the kind of driver that will be recalled now and gain because he's experienced and they just don't test anymore.

That's completely insulting to Nick Heidfeld. Disgusting. Nick Heidfeld beat Alesi, Kimi, Massa, Webber and Kubica in the same car, to put him in the same category as Kova and Petrov is not only disrespectful but completely wrong as well.

Can't agree more. How can you guys mock Heidfeld. He was BETTER than Kubica over all, but today, every one who WINS gets the star mark and the rest are rookies/climbing up the ladder to stardom. Heidfeld was IMO a legend! Look up Silverstone 2008 for example!

About Heikki. Sad how it didn't turn out the way it should. He still remains as a good driver to me. But at the same time, there are alot good drivers out there!

I guess he could either go to DTM/Indycar/WEC or qualify for the PGA (LOL).

It's not insulting to anyone; it's true. Not that I give one whit about insulting anyone, the truth comes first, always. The comparison is accurate as it pertains to Heidfeld at the end of his career and as it pertains to Kovalainen at what seems to be the end of his.

I would have said that Heidfeld was considerably stronger through most of his career than Kovalainen.

I had high hopes for him when he beat Schumacher at the Driver of Champions or whatever that event was years ago.

Then you need to make it clear you are specifically talking about Heidfeld at the end of his career. Nick did indeed fall off when he quickly got old near the end. But neither of you mentioned that, I misunderstood and thought you were comparing Nick to Kova and Petrov full stop, which is ridiculous.

I trust in the members common-sense, a naive hope I suppose. Nor do I hold the disparaging views you seem to hold of Heikki or Petrov.
