Re: Lotus Drivers in Person
While I don't know him personally, in his public appearances Kimi sometimes comes off as a bit of a dick. I don't expect people to be cheerful, great company or even that friendly. But I do expect them to be polite and professional. Kimi is indeed extremely privileged but his lack of education and ...

If Ferrari want a decent second opinion on what their new car is all about, it would be hard to get it from someone better than Trulli, knowing Barrichello is now to all intents and purposes unavailable (and it would be odd to see him accept, after how they treated him the first time round ).
