all i can say is *DANG*... felt like tuning out after this season with a large number of races being snorefests with only hamiltons antics providing something
Look forward now to seeing the iceman back in a hopefully capable car 
Here's to him blasting mr moany alonso off the track

What a kick in the face that would be to Ferrari after they handing Kimi a lump of cash to make way for Alonso.. To this day I cannot see the justification in that move.0 -

It only took Kimi one year at Ferrari and we all know what happened there LOL
INot going off topic but I still say Schumacher had the best car and the most obliging team mates when he won most of those titles.
As with Alonso.
Had the better car when he won both titles.. He hasnt done much since to be fair.
I still think he is over rated. ( Alonso )0 -

Well he was spot on there wasn't he
This will he won't he stuff is getting tiring, he's a great driver, but all this fanfare is a bit much at this stage.
He is just another driver. Schumi was going to set the world alight on his return & .......... But I would of dropped Schumi & signed Sutil
If Kubica had made a full recovery there is no was that any team would sign Kimi ahead of him.
I am of two minds about the return of past drivers. It's great for viewing figures but damaging for the younger talent & anyone driving alongside Kimi will be a definite No2. I wonder how Kimi will react if his team mate is quicker ? It took Schumi a long time to adapt because the cars are very different now.
As with any driver change these days it is very hard to separate how much of it is about talent & how much is about money.0 -

There will always be one on every forum..
Well I agree with him so now there are two
Kimi could of walked back & shown a tiny bit of concern. After all he is a major representative of his team. Many considered him to be a poor Champion because he had very little interaction when promoting the Sport unlike Button, Hamilton, & Vettel.Actually Petrov said while ago they didnt get new parts for half a year.Jordan 191 wrote: »As for Petrov, he said the car at the end of season was pretty much the same at the start of the season, and when new parts came, they were useless.
Great way to pitch for a 2012 drive !0 -

Yes, and on here i sometimes think its you!!! Your Kimi loving ways have seem to have blinded you in the fact that kimi is a grade a asshole, who had he any bloody decency would have helped the child up, regardless if he hit her.
Another note is that incident obviously happened in the paddock, and people who have access in the paddock are the movers and shakers of the f1 business, so who knows whose kid it could have been. As said above, kimi not giving a f**k, well i suppose that was his problem for half his career at ferrari, and why they moved him on so quickly.
Not at all,
I like Kimi as a driver simply because he couldn't give a flying fcuk what anyone say about him, ( a bit like myself actually.
)
As for those people in the paddock?
A bunch of $hitheads that think they can push themselves and their families in anyones way.0 -

Apparently not so:But the former Ferrari driver, now 30, criticised Renault for using his name for "their own marketing purposes".0 -

He criticised them for apparently using his name for marketing purposes. Fair enough him criticising them - but it goes against your claim that he doesn't give a f**k what people say about him. If he criticised them then it would mean that it did bother him and he did give a f**kBut why did he criticise them? 0 -

And maybe he got miffed because at that time there might of been a possibility of a better drive elsewhere. The worries with Kimi have been that he doesn't give a **** full stop.
Lotus/renault need a good development/feedback driver & I doubt if that's Kimi especially after a long lay off. All the rumours suggest that Kimi likes to arrive, drive & go home in as shorter time as possible. I wonder if the no testing regulations encouraged him back.0 -

Discodog basically answered it for me.
There is a huge difference between People mocking or running you down as a driver.. But it is a totally different scenario when a team could jeopardising your career.
You surely copped on to what I mean't in my post.0 -

How could a team mentioning him possibly jeopardise his career? Surely the opposite would be true, whereby mention of his interest in returning might encourage other teams to go after him - thus improving his career prospects?
The only way that it could jeopardise him is if he had agreed, in principle, to sign with another team. Bit like when Hamilton suffered brain fade & tried to talk to Horner who, according to reports, told him to get lost 0 -
