Yea but he wouldn't get some info like "3 seconds lead on Hamilton" or any of his or other drivers' lap times. On the whole, it was pretty difficult for him, good performance with the F2007. I'd reckon he get a top three finish in the world championship, unlike last season when the McLaren car was unreliable.

I think you should take a look at what information you can put on a pitboard. Laps completed/remaining, race position and gap to the driver infront/behind are the standard ones and you can put on other supplementary messages such as "RADIO" (i.e. your radio isn't working), "PUSH" (go faster), "COOL" (cool engine oil/water, brakes, tyres etc), "MAP 4" (go to fuel map 4). Racing without a radio is clearly not an ideal situation, but it's not the end of the world either.

He does get the gaps. Since he has leading he would have had the gap to 2nd and 3rd all the way through the race. Even then if your far enough ahead of 2nd place man the 3rd place man isn't going to be much of a worry unless he was on a different strategy.

I can't see how his race performance was affected at all. The only time I'd see the radio being important is in a close thought battle where he needed to make a gap. The Ferrari had the speed to probably lap up to the McLarens easily, so that wasn't a problem.

Kimi is a great driver and I'd like to see him win a title but I'd like to see the McLarens making him work for that top end salary . Can't see Renault getting far with Fisi as the lead driver.

Exactly. Fisichella looked slow and wasn't very good during the whole of last season. Coulthard deproved a whole lot since last season, Hamilton made an impressive debut, Alonso looking abit slower as compared to the world champion last season. And Spyker Ferrari - let's juz drop it.
