It is certain that nowadays as much Kimi Raikkonen as Fernando Alonso the next stars are in mouth of all as to discuss the reign of Michael Schumacher, but also it is truth of which Juan Pablo Montoya, no longer is only one promise, but also a reality.

Juan Pablo is crossing a little while of maturity

He could say itself that at this moment one is in the necessary maturity of his race, to be able to confront in equality of conditions to Schumi. Although their FW25 has not helped it as it would want, the last modifications in the aerodynamics got to megre once and for all along with magnificent BMW P83, as it were demonstrated with the triumph of the Colombian in the Great Prize of Monaco.
Montoya began its automobile race in the Karting in 1981, to later gain three years the national championship in the infantile category. More ahead, the local and national championship obtained by the 86, and between the '87 and the '89 gained local and national titles in the Kart Komet, moments before obtaining the championships of the world Junior in 1990 and 1991.
After to penetrate in formulas of the United States and England, the championship of F3000 with the Supernova equipment secured in his second season, establishing with 65 points a new record in the category.

The Colombian removes the maximum benefit from its Williams BMW

After an adjustment of Frank Williams, Juan returned to North America to dispute the match of the CART along with the equipment of Ganassi Chip. From an impressive way he obtained his first title in his first season, adding seven poles and seven triumphs turned which it into the youngest champion in the history of that competition.
After a year for the forgetfulness as he were it the following one, finally he arrived at Williams with a great trajectory to his backs, demonstrating it firmly when surpassing already in the middle of the season to at that time young mimado of escudería Ralf Schumacher, thus to continue prevailing envelope he until the present time. Lamentably the equipment has not granted him an agreed effective chassis to the engine power, which only allowed him to obtain two triumphs until now.
Throughout these years in F1, it has matured of a constant form and in increase, reason why he is interesting to emphasize which are the factors of their evolution, as well as his form to think and so respecta to the personal and professional atmosphere surrounds that it.

Juan Pablo receives the affection of his numerous followers

For Juan Pablo the fascination projected by him is fundamental on Colombia, almost as prodigious as that one that Ayrton the Seine (its idol) sometimes obtained in Brazil. The Seine always attributed its popularity, like the Colombian, to the hope of which its success transmitted people. Also it emphasizes always the force that to him her Connie wife grants to mature like person.
It has excellent relation with the engineers of the equipment, visits the plant of Williams in regular form and in each Great Prize one lodges in the Motorhome of escudería, whereas Ralf does in the one of BMW.

The relation between Montoya and Frank Williams always has been good

It is remarkable as in addition Montoya has overflowed to Ralf, when trying to stay unshakeable to the psychological attacks that his companion offers to him from time to time. While Juan more is abierto and charismatic, the German is colder and dry.
He has obtained an almost paternal relation with “old” the Frank Williams and was able to control the strong character of Patrick Head, by force of dedication and talent.
He has few friendly, but that according to him is worth the pain, like Barrichello, that knew in the races of Karting in Colombia.
Regularly is compared it with the style of pilotage of Mika Hakkinen, with a relative delay in the entrance to the curves and a showy sensitivity with the back aileron of the car. One adapts perfectly to the sobreturn, since it does not tend to turn with the brake tightened, directing the tube, although it does not enjoy it, because it catches his attention and it can be dangerous.

Juan Pablo assures not to fear to him to rain, but to the ovals

He hates the subturn, he deprives because to increase it the speed. Exactly, the power is something that it loves, mainly if arrives at a curve to 250 km. Like its maximum idol, the Seine, does not fear to him to rain, according to Juan the key is in the confidence in itself.
It confesses that they intimidate it to the ovals, although contrary to this, never seduced the myth to it to handle for Ferrari, since its dream is to prevail in Williams.
This year is totally determined to beat apparently to Schumacher and the unbeatable F2003-GA.
The German recognizes as much that as the car is “infernally fast”, but it clarifies that his Williams in a race in front of them does not shake the pulse to him when imposing.
He already demonstrated it in several occasions in the past, and surely (and by the good of motoring) he will have more opportunities of being able demonstrated in the future.

Juan Pablo rests in departure grilla of Indianapolis 2002

All are astonished by the force of Mister Schumacher and Ferrari, between which I include myself, but at the same time, we must recognize of that is essential a change of controls in the championship of F1.
By natural talent, anger, mental maturity and professional responsibility, at this moment the unique one with the capacity necessary is Montoya to supplant to the reign of escudería of Maranello and the quintuple world-wide champion.
