I don't understand.
Many of you have placed Kimi as the 'Donkey' (whatever THAT is.....) in the 'predictions' below.
Why?
Kimi stopped racing in F1 becasue he didn't get on with FIAT: if you know the history of how FIAT have behave with their drivers, you should be able to see WHY they didn't suit each other...... They did NOT like his attitude and made life difficult for him. It's never been officially said but, who would take a bet that part of getting his FAT FIAT F***-OFF FEE and getting out of the contract was that he couldn't race F1 for 2 year?. It would make SENSE for them to insist on that deal.
Secondly, many people don't seem to like his 'iceman' 'attitude'..... and yet.... read ANY reports about Kimi O*U*T*S*I*D*E the F1 paddock and they tell you he's a SERIOUS PARTY GUY! The bit he can't do is to talk to journalists as though they are worthwhile human beings.... which they AREN'T! You seem to forget that Kimi is the bloke who did a power-boat race dressed as a GORILLA.... and he used the name 'James Hunt' (which he's done for other races) because his life style is compared to the Party Animal that was Hunt!
What's NOT to like about a bloke who is quick, has fun ..... but HATES journalists?
Kimi gets in the Lotus Renault for the first time and lays down SERIOUS times.... leaving all the supposedly 'top' teams for DEAD in a new Lotus/Renault.... Hamilton, Alonso, Vettel and Webber set THEIR times once the track was 'rubbered in' and the cars had been 'developed' over 4 days..... Kimi did it OUT OF THE BOX! The last person to do that in a Renault was Kubica and most of us rate him as a 'God'!
So far the Lotus looks QUICK.... even Grojean made it GO!
On that basis... why do you lot think he WON'T be quick?
I just don't get it! He MAY turn out to be a 'donkey' but the CURRENT 'evidence' shows the OPPOSITE!
