The optimistic Finn

From BBC Sport: Hamilton team-mate expects parity:

Heikki Kovalainen says he is confident of being treated equally with team-mate Lewis Hamilton at McLaren next season.

The former Renault driver has swapped places with former world champion Fernando Alonso, who has left McLaren after a fractious one-year stint.

"One thing I wanted to establish before signing was that I'd be treated equally," he told BBC London 94.9.

Poor little disillusioned Finn. He really thinks that even though he's already being described in the news as "Hamilton team-mate", he will be treated equally. Every Schumacher needs his Barrichello, but to misguide him in such a way is just mean. He's just a kid. Like how we were brought up to think that working would make us happy and feel fulfilled. Am I right?
