I read somewhere that he likes the way the Ferrari team is much more than McLaren.
Maybe Ron was the cause of Kimi being so shy! :D
It's good the teams still count on the driving skills, it's much more fun to watch 2 hours good driving than a listen to a handless standup comedian in a 3 min event press conferance.
:laugh: maybe, but she isn't in F1 so we don't have the problem to think about it! ;)Quote:

I wonder if weŽll ever know...

Probably nothing new in this article, but Sauber has expressed the same concern as some other important figures in F1.
Kimi is a cool person he does not let things get to him and if something comes up like Martin Brundel asking where hes been kimi going to answer with the truth i honestly think kimi will be a fantastice champion
I like the guy and I'm sure Kimi likes Ferraris "warm Italian feeling" much more than "McLarens correct style". I think there was also a difference between Mika and Kimi - Mika is a McLaren guy and Ron is his "friend" (as much he can be a friend with somebody) - what he newer was to Kimi, for him Kimi was more like an employee, nothing more. I think thats not enough if you want to make a champion. Drivers needs a good feeling in the team also. They needs to feel that they can take risks without to be accused afterwards if everything goes to h*ll!.Quote:

Check out this interview: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/56636
Seeing only the picture of him on this link, it shows that there is something wrong with the team.
For the interview?!! Did you know how many times he repalyed : "...wait and see.."?
Answer to Question 1 : ....have to wait and see
Answer to Question 2 : ...we will see
Answer to Question 3 : ...we will wait and see
Answer to Question 4 : ....just wait and see
Answer to Question : ...We will need to wait and see
I am afraid that Massa will be doing well than him as the new tires don't suit him already and Massa is happy with that.
Like him, wait and see!!
The media types who accuse Kimi and others of lacking character or personality are usually people ignorant of F1 who have a hidden agenda against it. This is certainly the case in Britain. People in other sports don't have similar things said about them.
The only manifestation of the personalities of Messrs Alonson and Raikkonen which I am interested in is that which happens out on the track. Added to which, those deemed to be "characters" in F1 are usually in the ranks just below the absolute aces. There's a message in there somewhere.
Kimi is a character,if he can't express himself in English properly,what's wrong with that :?: What's wrong with his drinking :?: It's his life and he can do whatever he wants with it.... :beer:
...guess he is only referring to my nick! :DQuote:

There seem to be a lot of comments that just end abruptly. Was that an effort by the reporter to make Kimi seem dull and boring?
I think Kimi will be heard from on the track!
Well, you have to admit though that Kimi was exceptionally bland in that Q&A. It was actually a complete waste of time to read it.Quote:

That would have worked well...
He could be a bit more verbose in his answers. As it stands, you'd get more information staring at a decomposing apple than listening to Kimi.Quote:

No. He is not going to be an unappealing champion.
HeŽll change. Now all his problem are gone. Ugly RD is no longer messing around. YouŽll see the true kimi soon enough... a real clown Žcos now heŽs in the happy happy super-jolly Marlboro Ferrari team.
I would like to see how this forum would respond if Jackie Stewart were to anonymously arrive in a time capsule.
Yea' Baby!!!!!
well we know the Brits would be pissing down both legs !!
I wasn't ready for that one!Quote:
