F1 Preview 2008
2007 was the beginning of a new era - post-Schumacher, and the top two drivers left (Raikkonen and Alonso) swapping teams. Nothing happened as expected, particularly the Hamilton Story. It was a fresh start.
This year is about unfinished business. Lewis Hamilton made history in his first year, but didn’t quite get the historic title he came so close to. McLaren want to prove they’re not cheaters. Alonso has to prove he isn’t going to throw his toys out of the pram every year. And Kimi, well, his first year at Ferrari was blighted by not being Schumacher - he’ll be wanting to show he can dominate just like the German could.
Further down the grid, we’ll have a close battle among the midfield teams and an intriguing battle between the two Toro Rosso drivers.
