Zitat von WolfieSeriously, now I'm wondering big time... not mentioning Domenical was something that is interesting...
Who remembers how Stefano approached Kulta in 2010 in Ferrari's PR-days when he was having dinner, asking Kulta to write in his website that he has called Kimi and that they are on friendly terms?
Kulta wrote that exactly like that; Stefano asked him to write it
I remember Boudica wondering about the call to Kimi, saying something like 'did Kimi even answer the call'
But is Domenicali the person Kimi had problems with?
hahahahaha it was so interesting!I didn't hear it before. Good job for Heikkiï¼ " title="ha" /> " title="ha" />
I read some good articles which is about Kimi in the magazine, and here I translated some...I didn't translate all the article, but picked up some answers from Alan Permane. you may already read the similar article...I don't know if it's something new, or not. but here it is. this interview was done before Bahrain. I am firstly sorry about my bad English tme" title="notme" />
"Surprisingly, Kimi is doing really well. but we can say it as expected. we made a bit mistake at quali in Melbourne, but I think it's not a surprise if Kimi and Romain were at Q3 at all. we can say Kimi's potential has no problem after watching the first qualif of his coming back.""there were miscommunication at first, but we can solve this problem right away. Kimi's feedback is amazingly appropriate, and it's very accurate and understandable what he wants from it. I was quite surprised. there are people who say lots of thing about Kimi, but he is indeed superb in engineering point of view, and there is no problem at all.""for example, when he fit the seat, he took quite a long time and adjusting details. it should have taken longer time than other drivers. once a carbon seat is ready, most of the drivers request to change details after that, so it normally takes time to have perfect seat, especially young drivers. it took time to design Kimi's seat, but when a carbon seat was ready, he said OK on the first attempt and never complained about it at all. this kind of thing cannot be done by normal and rookie drivers. if you don't know what you want and how you want, it can't be like that. Kimi gives sensitive requests, but once it's fulfilled, he will never complain about them later. in fact, his early demand are appropriate and accurate. "Kimi's feedback is really great and he has lots of enough experiences. we did lots of mapping test right after the test start in Jerez, he has lots of experience, and his knowledge, understanding of engine mapping, engine breaking, etc are in depth, and he gives us really accurate feedback about all mappings. he is a real clever driver. "
"Kimi drives by feeling, engineering inferior, and not suit recent F1 because of his aggressive driving style which destroy tyres hard." this is not only media created Kimi, but also based on the information from people who really don't know or who look down Kimi. but, current Kimi is different than these opinion. he does not have any problem of the engineering, feedback, communication abilities at all. then, how about his speed. "although he was away from F1 for 2 years, he surprisingly showed his speed from the first test in Jerez. we didn't feel he was away 2 years at all. he could not show his speed in Melbourne due to the failure of quailf, but he finished at 7th from 17th grid. we can't say he does not have speed if you look at the result. in addition to this, he showed us how he can use the tyres in a long run test in Jerez. that information is also accurate, and he proved he can manage this year's difficult tyres. before Kimi is coming to our team, I heard "he is a type of driver who destroys the tyres soon," so I was quite worried about it, but once I see him running, I understand his quickness of intellect of tyres, and he is superior in terms of tyre management.
Permane worked with top drivers such as Michael, Alonso and Kubica in the past. compared with them, how he sees Raikkonen... "each one of them are unique and all are different type of drivers. I don't know which one is better and which one is not. Michael is tactical for all the things and a clever driver as we know, Alonso is a type of driver who grew up with us. he really doesn't care about the detail which made me feel a bit lazy, and he leaves the job up to his engineers.( ) Kubica is opposite and he spends hours on watching computer and video, and thoroughly analyze things. Kimi is in the middle. As necessary, he gives his time for his engineers, and he also do analyze computer if it is necessary. it's Kimi's style, but he seems to be well-adjusted depending on the situation. Kimi is extremely blessed driver for us."
there is Slade's interview as well, but he said nothing new and giving usual Slade's answer. there are interview of Kaj and Petter! and also there are comment from Mikko & Latvala " title="suomi" /> they all gave so warm words to Kimi " title="hug" /> Kimi's interview is more or less the same as other articles. one thing that I would like to highlight was it was a tough decision to choose not to come back to F1 in 2011 from RB. oh, Kimi. I am happy to see you in Lotus although I used to want to see Vettel & Kimi in the same team " title="red bull" />
well, hope the translation is understandable and fun for some people " title="holy" />
Zitat von luviceman there are interview of Kaj and Petter! and also there are comment from Mikko & Latvala they all gave so warm words to Kimi " title="hug" />
awwww what Petter did say about Kimi? Could you tell, please? " title="ii" />

I don't understand this. Did Kimi say that or you say that it was a tough decision not to come back in RB? " title="oi" />
