Kimi's FP3 Best Time
Kimi says the championship fight have just started, heading into the european races. The Spanish GP crowd will be hoping for
Fernando Alonso to take pole position and for McLaren that would be perfect (if you consider the media attention and sponsor
benefits they would receive from having the two time world champ). So, will McLaren take pole today? For Kimi, he can't let
that happen. It's true that the front row drivers or the pole sitter wins the grand prix nowadays, we saw this in Melbourne,
Malaysia and Bahrain. So, getting pole position will be Kimi's target, nothing less. He said in his column preview of the Spanish
GP that getting pole means taking victory will be more probable and easier. So, we can trust that Kimi will stick to his words and
fight for pole position today, nevermind if he hasn't been fastest in the 3 practise sessions. Keep Flying Kimi!
News:Raikkonen likes the idea of night racing
Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen gave his seal of approval on Friday to plans for a night-time Formula One race in Singapore next year."I think it’s going to be good. Hopefully everything works well. It
will be quite nice I think, a different atmosphere and a different
race," he told reporters at the Spanish Grand Prix.Unlike some other drivers, the Finn said he was not concerned about the safety implications of racing under floodlights.
"It’s going to look like daytime when they put all the lights on," he said.
Raikkonen more comfortable with F2007
The designer of the F2007, Aldo Costa believes car improvement was also down to Kimi’s input: "Kimi is happier with the car, with the modifications done, but he
was also working well on the set-up. We were developing a good set-up
for him and he is much happier."I think he found what he wanted. Of course it depends entirely on
the conditions of the track. (On Friday) the track had quite a low
level of grip, so it was not a fantastic track, but at the test we were
much happier."

Ferrari’s thoughts – Friday practice
Kimi Raikkonen commented, "Track conditions were very different to
those we found when testing here last week and it is definitely more
slippery. So, we are struggling a bit to find the right balance of the
car. All our work has centred on finding the best race set-up on the
car. We will have to study the data carefully to improve, both for
qualifying and for Sunday’s race."Kimi was just saying yesterday that the track could change, and he’s right; it has become more slippery. It’s not just slippery for him, but a lot of drivers have spun off track today, sliding here and there. So, at least our Kimster is has been cautious as well as confident for the race 🙂 However, setting up the car for single lap pace is still a bit of a problem, but can Kimi get pole position tomorrow? Will he draw every single tenth out of that Ferrari for the No.1 grid spot, like he used to at McLaren? I hope so, it would be great to see him sparkle like that again.
Singapore night race confirmed for 2008
Singapore has been confirmed as a Grand Prix venue for the 2008
calendar. A street circuit will be layed out for the event whilst
Bernie Ecclestone was excited to announce that it will be the first
night race in the history of the sport.
The five-year deal for the Singapore Grand Prix was agreed between F1
surpemo Ecclestone, Singapore entrepeneur Mr Ong Beng Seng and the
Singapore Tourism Board.
"I am very pleased to welcome
Singapore to the Formula One family and we look forward to this exotic
addition to the championship," said Ecclestone. "This will be the first
fully lit street race in Formula One.
"As a night race we
anticipate it will quickly establish itself as one of the most dramatic
and atmospheric races on our calendar. I know the Formula One drivers,
teams and fans are all looking forward to coming to Singapore next
year."
The race is being planned towards the end of the 2008
season in either September or October. Because it is a night event, it
can be broadcasted during the day to European TV viewers.I just love the layout of this track, see the google earth image: Singapore City Circuit should bring some extra spice to F1 track action. So, we now have Valencia and Singapore to compete with our current street circuits in Melbourne, Monaco and Canada. Rather than just sticking to Tilke’s massive tarmac desert tracks, a bit more of variety can’t be a bad thing. Remember, there’s also rumours of more changes to the current F1 rules regulations such as ban of winglets (aero), so keep tuned for all the news!

As you may know, Schumi is present for the first time this year at a grand prix. Here’s an interview with him:
Q & A with Michael SchumacherQ. What is your analysis of the job that Kimi is doing at the team?
MS: It is not my part of work to analyse the drivers.
Certainly I have my view, but I don’t think it is my job to make that
public honestly. I don’t see any reason, as I spoke before, to make any
comments in any direction. Unfortunately in this business they can be
twisted too many times around, so I am happy that we as a team are
doing well and we can win the championship. That is all that counts.
