I have always thought Kimi is a bit overrated. During his time in F1 several mythical virtues have been ascribed to him by groups of F1 fans, like The Fastest Driver, The Best Overtaker, The Best Wet Weather Driver... or whatever. Life has shown that those titles are more like subjective opinions rather than genuine proof, which has been confirmed on the racing circuit. I still ironically remember, how years ago he was expected to beat M. Schumacher in the same car, something which the last seasons have proven wouldn't have happened.
However, I think Kimi is capable of more than what he is currently showing and it is strange to see him getting trashed by his team-mate. He should be capable of matching him. If he continues driving like that, then maybe it would be a good decision to leave already after 2008...

My opinion, for what it's worth, is that Kimi could have benefitted from a few more seasons in lower formulae.
He was superb in Formula Renault but I can't help wondering, with hindsight, if a few more years learning the ropes (say in F3000 as it was then) might have made him a more complete F1 driver.
He's clearly quick, of that there's never been any doubt, but all too often one hears questions about his ability to blend in with a team and make a valuable contribution to its development. There's so much more to F1 than turning up at the weekend and driving the car quickly, something which Michael Schumacher knew better than most and something which Massa seems to appreciate.Useful F1 Twitter thingy: http://goo.gl/6PO1u
