Does Ferrari's Driver Lineup Pose a Big Problem?

I guess Ferrari only likes experience.  Let me say though, that Frank Williams didn’t take a man named Ayrton Senna after an absolutely unbelievable test session in 1984, because Williams didn’t like inexperience, no matter how good the driver (apparently).

The only good thing that I can see about this timing, is that Bruno Senna will have had two years in F1, and will be ready (if he drives as well as I think he will) to go to one of the big three. 

Ferrari will hopefully jump on it, especially with his connection with friend Gerhard Berger, who used to be a Ferrari driver, and the fact that he will have a Ferrari engine behind him in 2009 with Toro Rosso.  (Although as Bill has said, he may be with McLaren as a test driver in 2009 and a driver in 2010.  I think that'd be a Big money maker for a year, "Come see Hamilton and Senna!", but it could get ugly like 2007 as well, depending on how well Senna drives)

Overall, I just think Ferrari is in big trouble, with Massa’s heavy Brazilian/Italian emotions, and Kimi’s non-existent emotions.
