If from the above numbers you see that Kimi is clearly the faster driver then.... you are the one that needs help.
I cannot be bothered to reply to your other comments. Clearly you have your opinion, which is biased because of your love for Ferrari.
Fine....
Happy Thanksgiving!

In todays F1 format, poles generally indicate best car and differing stratagies. Fast laps generally indicate fastest driver.
Kimi has 15 poles and 25 fast laps.
Fred on the other hand managed 19 poles and only 11 fast laps.
Victories on the other hands generally indicate best team. This is evidenced by the regularity of driver and constructors championships won by the same team.
As for not bothering to defend your position, this statement generally follows an indefensible position.
When it come to bias, this accusation is always the position of a week mind. Attack the messenger with words like racist, prejudice, bias when you can't articulate your position.
Kimi was fast even before he joined Ferrari so your Tifosi accusation is limp.
I'll take it one step further. Montoya was also faster than Fred as is Hambone and Massa. We may find that a number of the new breed will be faster as well. Robert Kubica, Heikki Kovalainen, Nico Rosberg and my personal favorite, Sebastian Vettel. Will any of these drivers have the success that Fred has enjoyed? Perhaps not, time will tell. What we do know is Fred is done in my book on character alone. In a pole of favorite drivers conducted by ING (the Renault primary sponsor) Fred manage a 10% share a huge drop from last year. His driving was not the major factor, character was. I believe a pole of teams would show McLaren suffering the same fate.
