Using you logic they should in fact hire Kovalainen who is beating Trulli and sack Alonso. Remember points standings after ten races in 2004: Jarno Trulli, Renault 40 points, Fernando Alonso Renault 30 points, so Trulli more than matched Alonso before his fallout with Briatore that year.

My point is that rather than looking at statistics that suit you you should take a look at the real tally of Räikkönen's time at Ferrari and compare it to Massa OR Alonso for that matter. 1 WDC vs no WDCs. Luck or not, that's the bottom line and I see some added value in Räikkönen over Massa.

Dont you think you are contradicting yourself? Massa was becoming a better driver then Kimi, and had a very good chance for the wdc. I'm not sure how things would have been if he did not have that accident in Hungry, but he would have been a much better driver vs what we have seen since.
