I fully understand you.
I've somewhat warmed to Kimi during his tenure at Ferrari and having him in a McLaren will be a bit contradictory for me, maybe he goes to another team and I'll support him a bit.

Dear ioanus, I dont hate anyone. I even like your golden boy Felipe and feel terrible about his freak accident.

Your dislike to Kimi however has been proven beyond any doubt by yourself. Right here.

I do hope Felipe gets back okay. And if he does, I believe he´ll give Alonso a hard time. And I hope Kimi will beat them both in McL.

Thats just racing.

I do not dislike Kimi as a person.
The only people I somewhat dislike are Ron Dennis and Kimi's fanboys, and I say fanboys to differentiate between thgem and the real fans Kimi has, few but very knowledgeable and likeable people, just like Kimi.

Was that a serious question?

Fair enough.

How do you feel about Kimi´s 45Me salary+ compensation for 2010 (from Marlboro and Santander). Plus the salary from the new team. Thats absurd, dont you think?

It's their money.
However I believe that paying anyone more than 1 million Euro a season is absurd.
I'm pretty sure that even the president of the US doesn't get close to that and his job (and responsabilities) is a million times more difficult.

I will definitely support McLaren a lot more next year if indeed Raikkonen rejoins them.

I haven´t read all the replies on this topic but:

Why isn´t the option that Kimi will drive the WRC series mentioned by anyone?? :bounce:

Don´t you guys see that he will change to RALLYING next year????

That´s the most obvious thing for him to do. :D :D
