Am I the only one to think Kimi might have a good chance of winning tomorrow? Especially if he can get a good start, keep up with the Bulls and have a successful 1-stop strategy. I think you are indeed the only one..... hahahaha :D @zoue I'm from philippines, fellow countryman with our beloved dind...

Its not a conspiracy, its not imagination, its pure and simple logic. Kimi is Ferrari driver now . He simply doesnt get all the data nor he isnt invited to technical meetings. In that aspect , he only drives. As fast as he can. And quite obviously Lotus will want RoGro to do better than Kimi for Ro...

Grosjean and Maldonado.. What a "dashing" lineup !!!!!

priestlysabbath

Let's hope whatever tire compound Pirelli comes up with is comfortable for Kimi or else it would be hard to watch Alonso beat him week after week :( The new compound also seems to be affecting Alonso although no one really speaks about it. The past few races, Alonso has also struggled in qual as co...

Hey guys. I'm linking to my review as usual :) There is a fair amount of Webber bashing and Grosjean-critique this time around. Grosjean critique? But he drove an awesome race, you say? I respectfully disagree. But more on that here. How To Lose A Race. By R. Grosjean: http://f1bias.com/2013/10/14/...

You mean to say it is not wrapped up already ????

I keep reading opinions (maybe that don't really matter) that Kimi's hiring will push Alonso to perform better. http://www.planetf1.com/news/3213/8920557/-Kimi-A-Short-Term-Aggressive-Gamble- Somewhere else I read DC also said something similar. Don't have the link though now. I think many are forge...

In a way, this is Kimi's last chance saloon. He has put his reputation on the line with Alonso. If by any chance, kimi fairs poorly against alonso, I dont think he stands any further chance with any of the top teams considering his age. I dont think he will be willing/interested to drive for FI or ...

priestlysabbath

Will be Alonso's second real test with a strong teammate and the first time he actually struggled. And Kimi does seem very hungry after his return. Also, he will have something in mind to prove to Ferrari also. I think he should be all charged up.
I vote Kimi.

Because they wanted to... and they felt it was the right thing to do.. and they had money...

quite straight forward - we (Lotus) being screwed. and it hurts. a bit.

Dan will be significantly slower in 2014, but should start challenging in 2015.

I'm waiting to hear Luca's comments. He had said in 2010 i think that the reason Kimi was replaced was because they needed a "leader". I know he will politically correctly/incorrectly contradict that but i'm waiting to hear the way he does that. Anyhow, this seems to be a step upwards for Kimi in te...

Yes... have to agree with this. Lotus are not going to be able to give him a chance at a championship. They have neither budgets nor personnel.

Kimi 5th in FP1. Down by only .376 of a second. Testing times do not mean too much but he seems to be at least kind of strong so far.

priestlysabbath

I think the situation in Ferrari might be similar to what was in RBR. I think in RBR Christian Horner wanted Kimi but Dietrich wanted a driver from their own young driver list and it worked that way finally. In Ferrari, I think SD may be in favour of getting Kimi in but LDM might think otherwise. We...

I second this. Somehow i don't see a Kimi to Ferrari deal working out.

The RedBull move is not ruled out completely yet.

Beginning to believe in the Kimi to Ferrari possibility.
Reason is Eddie Jordan says so. He somehow happens to be right with respect to driver market.

priestlysabbath

I still don't think Kimi will go to Ferrari because it clearly is a public admission of having made a mistake firing Kimi and this (admitting a mistake) is definitely far from Ferrari culture.

priestlysabbath

Seriously hope Kimi does not end up in Ferrari. Would be really odd to be supporting "one" ferrari.

Read in PITPASS that the comment Alonso made was ... Talking to the Italian media, asked what he wanted for his birthday – he is 32 today – the Spaniard replied: "a faster car, like the others have". Subsequently, when asked what he will be doing over the summer break, the Spaniard quipped "I will b...

Kimi's recent comments suggest to me that he may go for the option which in most peoples eyes, is the wrong one... i.e. reject the RBR offer or even try to negotiate a deal, and stay at Lotus. It could still be the other way round. There is also a general feeling that Kimi would be "stupid" to move...

Boullier admitted to BBC the team hadnt paid Kimis salary in time but its now handled. He said they had to ,otherwise they could not keep Kimi.

Alonso has nowhere really to go for at least 3 to 4 years. RBR is building their car around Vettel. And Alonso cannot survive in a team without number 1 status. Same with Merc, building around Hamilton and they don't want 2007 all over again. Lotus may not really want Alonso "back". They might actua...
