I've got a feeling he'll be WDC one day. And I've kind of liked him ever since he was interviewed after his win and the interviewer said 'This must be the best day of your life' and Seb said 'You weren't there when I lost my virginity'. Shades of Kimi

The kid is a breath of fresh air one mistake in the lead & he is overated... You could see he was gutted after finishing 3rd in Turkey .... Its all part of the learning process..... He will be a World champion (more than once )

Undouted talent, but error prone on a almost comedic level. |

No No No, Nakajima is only Nelson Piquet JNRs side kick worthy only to tug on his trouser hems for comedic heroism. |

I have to admit when he first came into F1 I thought he was very over-rated. Liuzzi had bested him in the last few races of 2007, and Bourdais was keeping pace with him in the first half of 2008 and in most races in the second half. So even with his win at Mnza I was still somewhat cautious over his level of talent. But he has really impressed me this year, despite his errors. He has outqualified Webber (himself a superb qualifier) at every race, and both this weekend and at Barcelona was set to beat him in the races, but strategy intervened in the form of Massa and Button (slower cars holding him up at the time) to put him behind Webber. He will probably be a champion one day and I suspect it could be soon. |

The same Nakajima who would have finished ahead of Rosberg in Turkey but for a problem at his last pit stop? Kazuki is talented but inconsistent. He did a very good job last year, picking up the solid points while his teammate made silly errors. |

Nakajima would never have finished in front of Rosberg. He was on for seventh place behind Massa, which would have been an excellent result in the context of his season, but only really about what you would expect from the Williams number two driver based on what Rosberg has been doing. So in other words, a solid performance in a season of bad ones. |

No you missed my point. I was saying for comedy value KN isn't worthy even to tug the hem of Nelson Piquet's trouser cuffs. |

He said that? Brilliant. It is like Kimi and Mika too. I always liked that one inteview. Mika, what tyres will you be using tomorrow. Reply. I was thinking of using the round black ones. Odd that two of the most boring speakers (in terms of not moving their lips whilst talking) can have some of the best humour. |

I don't mean to generalise, but that in my experience is what to expect of Scandinavians. They don't say much, but what they do say tends to be hilarious. |
