I read in Forbes Magazine that Kimi will make $44 million dollars this year alone, including one year of payment from the contract and various endorsments, but what sort of endorsment deals does Kimi have?

The only lesson that you can learn here is this:

A) BE A RELATIVE OF SOMEONE IMPORTANT AND YOU WILL LIVE UNDER HIS SHADOW, BUT YOU´LL BE HIGHLY OVERPAID AND OVERATED.
B) TOYOTA (AT LEAST F1 TEAM, BECAUSE IN OTHER AREAS ARE TURNING INTO WORLD LEADERS....) ARE INCREDIBLY STUPID

... HOW CAN YOU PAY 17M FOR THAT SLOW, UNNMOTIVATED F1 "bourgeois".

I would gave, two years ago, Toyota n°2 car to... I don´t know... Sebastien Bourdais or Dario Franchitti or anyone else (Danica Patrick!??!?

)
