The new KIMI?

[CHT]

Here is KIMI in the recent Top Gear with Jeremy.

He definitely look more relax and chatty now.

"...oups!"

Who builds the car again Kimi? Lotus is the manufacturer, Renault is the engine supplier.

[Ral]

That's what it says there on the car.

I don't think he really cares to be honest. As far as he's concerned he's just driving a black car made in Enstone.

[banibhusan]

I hope the black car he is driving is CLEAR of all the small teething problems that the team faced during testing.

[Schurcedes]

They could scalp a few wins if the car is good.

Good to have him back in F1, seems nice and relaxed on the show.

Actually he's behaving quite different from Kimi we knew...

Same thing is Schumacher...

Both of them are smiling and look kinda laid back then they used in their primes...

never mind the new kimi ...I want the OLD kimi back ...on the track , at least

I thought it would be a while for him to get back in the swing , but initial signs are that he is 99% there from the start

I see they tried another steering rack for FP1 /FP2 , but kimi says the previous one is better so they will go back to it for the race ; clearly it is not yet to kimi's satisfaction or they would not be experimenting ...more to come hopefully

podiums for kimi this season ?
