Re: Where is Kimi racing next year?

Kimi has a long list of the fastest laps and ofcourse Ferrari did him justice, but his ice numbs his mind to boredom to lose interest pushing his car to the edge...even when his Ferrari out runs the others...repetitions of the same 60 or so laps over and over again hypnotize him to snooze...even if he has to catch the cars in front...beside the aftereffect of few many heavy nights cannot always triggers him to thrust while still streaming in his veins...it is hard to be consistent with such manners. Kimi might again find his dare and the love for challenge contesting in Rally racings…but I still badly want to see him flying in an F1 hoping some one like Brawn will manipulate him…
Massa on the other hand is not as accurate as Kimi, but Massa learning curve ignited by the fire to wanting a win and fair judgments is scoring better for all involved...
Alonso stomach is still big and familiar with the taste of wins that he misses...a naturally gifted pilot that could handle pathetic cars like Renault. To see him intimidating others on the track, with all fairness he deserves a better car like Ferrari or Brawn...Maybe with Ferrari to create a Mediterranean fire ball...but hopeful at the same time to see Hamilton, Rosberg, Kubica, Massa, Vettel with same urge to win...so Alonso will not again dominate with Ferrari like the Schumi boring era…

i heard he can eat 6 Big Mac burgers in one sitting.
Kimi is immune to ice-cream headaches/brainfreezes tho, so perhaps he is the better choice for Ferrari in 2010..

Looks like Alonso is going on the lines of JPM :lol:
From what Ive heard. Kimi can get pretty wasted at times, he loves binge drinking and ice creams! Ferrari will still keep him if he weighs a 100kgs, he s that good...

If it's true about Kimi going home to McLaren I've got to admit I'll be stoked. It's easily as good as Prost/Senna. Fire-works here we come. That would also prove the hypothesis of Alonso in a Ferrari. The season could turn out to be a corker.

sorry for being in Portuguese

It's saying that Rosberg admitted contacts with BrawnGP and Meredes. He's just waiting to know if Williams is keeping the same engine for next year or if it will be replaced either by cosworth or renault.

Maybe that's the key to his 'strong' race finishes as of late. Get it?

That's exactly what I was getting at, but the weird thing is when Ron turned him into a clean cut robot/dork with short hair, he blew everyones doors off. Maybe it was the no frills, no fun, no family attitude at McLaren, but Kimi seems to have lost that killer edge he had in years past. I think he's much more happy, and he looks much better with long hair and a smile on his face. Makes him more human, so to speak. It's nice to see a guy just enjoying racing rather than plugging the sponsors and towing the company line.

If Ferrari needs to win again they will need a complete blood change...since Brawn left they lost creativity and only got lucky with the unexpected Kimi win because the disturbed Ron missed the opportunity and made it difficult for the experienced Alonso to win again while pushing the English kid [Hamilton] for more than he can handles. Now that the kid is faster in the McLaren, Brawn is kicking butts with The Red Bulls and Sutil soaring for the fastest laps…Ferrari is no longer a unique car specially if luck doesn’t side with them along with some of Kimi’s swinging moods of inconsistencies…Ferrari will be as good as Force India or less even with all the money they have…

But Massa is!

So Kimi is likely to switch back to McLaren while Nico Rosberg will be joining Brawn. Heikki Kovalainen is in deep brown stuff without Flabby paving his way and may have to take a test drive. Hulkenberg may appear for Nico at Williams. Kubica could go to Renault despite their fall from grace if the money is right.

Who else is managed by Flav? Webbo is the only other one besides Heikki right?

It is Romain Grosjean...he is learning well and genetically far better than Piquet

Kimi back to Mclaren... hmmm interesting.
It's a double edge sword for Kimi fans, Kimi gets a good front running car next year, but at the same time we get direct comparison of how much faster Hamilton is. :lol: No excuses!!
And there is no Ron to put the blame on. It's the moment of truth for kimi and Alonso fans alike. Will Alonso in a Ferrari get revenge for his fans on the Mclaren driver?
Will kimi show that Hamilton is highly overrated just because of biased treatment, or will he melt under the pressure and let his fans down?
For Sure!!
