I would like to see how Massa would do if he didn't have to block for the lead driver. I guess now that he will be playing second fiddle to Kimi we won't know that, at least not this season.
It will be very interesting to see how Kimi does in a car that doesn't blow up every other race though.
They had an interesting conversation between the commentators that this is how it has been forever in formula one racing. The number one driver is expected to win and the number two driver is expected to do everything to help him. They even commented on years ago when the number one drivers car blew up they had number two pull into the pits and give him his car! They also mused about people complaining about team tactics when it has always been this way.
