Jinx

please, the guy jumped back into F1 with a 2 year break, completing every lap bar 1 in his returning season... barring the reliability of the car, he should not be the problem if there are any

Jinx

doesn't it look weird that a big lotus logo is plastered on his outfit and he is promoting the renault?

Jinx

what I've taken from the timesheets are that Bianchi is much faster than Diresta and Rossiter, and Guiterez is much faster than the Hulk. But of course, I dunno if they were all testing different stuff but the rest of the drivers were pretty close to their teammates is what I mean.

Jinx

teething problems hopefully resolved

Jinx

but u ignore the fact that kimi was away for 2 years while grosjean was pirelli tester and recent GP2 champ. On top of that, Kimi had numerous issues (like Kers, Differential, engineers didn't inform him he didn't have enough time for another lap if he didn't speed up, etc) that affected quali quit...

I also heard Permane is gone... dunno if this sound bite is true Good riddance if true.. I never liked him to be honest I feel the same way . Thing is permane has friends in the media so there was no way he was going to be criticised for his awful decisions. I hope lotus go the ferrari and red bull...

Jinx

Who can forget that when Kimi qualified 11th bcos he told kimi to stay in the garage and let kimi take the fall during the post quali conference... and when kimi drove to a podium, he then stuck his hand up to say it was his brilliant strategy all along? Maybe he should join Fernando in Ferrari

Jinx

Kudos to Parr for being so candid about recognizing Kimi's hunger yet not really being sure about Kimi's value, and being honest about the quality of the car. Unlike that Wolff in sheep's skin....

I think, more crucially, it is that as outsiders, we will never really know what are excuses and what are valid reasons.

Jinx

Maybe the more crucial question is if there is a difference in giving way on track or giving way before the race even starts.

to OP, I have to say that I never liked Schummy at all, especially how he carried himself in his first F1 career... but his second career, I have become a fan and I am quite sad to see him leave.

yeah I agree totally!

Why is that?

Fair enough, he clearly has something in he way of talent but its a risk and be it on Boullier's head if it backfires. I think Boullier will be OK, he managed to bring Kimi to the team. It'll be a disaster if Grosjean backfires again and Kimi leaves at the end of the year though. I wanted Kobayashi...

Ferrari car sales & memoribilia sales will not suffer because of the perceived unfairness to Kimi by Kimi fans. Of course, it only matters to s...
