Kimi has a problem with Schu – report
According to a popular European newspaper, formula one’s most frequent winner in 2007, Kimi Raikkonen, "has a problem". Germany’s Bild-Zeitung points out that, despite winning three times this year compared with his three title rivals’ two triumphs apiece, 27-year-old Raikkonen only ever wins "if Schumi is not there". Kimi’s predecessor at Ferrari, seven time world champion Michael Schumacher, retired at the end of 2006 but has attended some grands prix this year as the Maranello team’s ‘advisor’. Schumacher was, for example, at Magny Cours on the Saturday but had left by the time Raikkonen found full form on Sunday and won for the first time since Melbourne — when Schumacher was also absent. After Kimi won in Australia, team boss Jean Todt handed him a mobile phone in parc ferme with Schumacher on the other end, but the Finn claimed the line dropped out. Nearly four months later, Schumacher then skipped the British grand prix altogether, preceding another Raikkonen win — but the 38-year-old German is scheduled to resume his tour at the Nurburgring in two weeks. Bild wonders: "Is Schumi’s shadow too large? Does Kimi feel restrained in his presence?
The answers are no, and no. Why? Because if there was any bothering on Michael’s part, it would have effected Kimi when they were racing against each other a la 2003 through to 2006. But through those years Kimi has beaten and raced Michael on the track fair and square on a few occassions (Australia 2003, Spa 2004 are just some examples). And what of Massa? He had some bad luck at Australia with his gear box and now at Silverstone with stalling on the grid. Did Michael cause those too? Unless Michael sabotaged Kimi’s electronics at Spain, then maybe we can speculate on this ridiculous report further! Also, as you can see from the picture above, it was Michael who clearly had a problem with Kimi and still does for taking his seat prematurely. Ha!
Kimi has taken step forward – boss
After two wins in the space of seven days, Ferrari chiefs on Sunday agreed that Kimi Raikkonen is firmly back at the races. The Finn went through a difficult period of competitiveness following his debut win for the Maranello team in Australia. But "everyone can see he has made a step forward in performance," Ferrari’s sporting director Stefano Domenicali said at Silverstone. Italian Domenicali, however, said he is only "50 per cent" happy in Britain, after Felipe Massa’s victory chances stalled with his F2007 on the grid. He said: "With the performance we have had this weekend, we should be celebrating a one-two. "Such errors should not happen," Domenicali added, explaining that he did not yet know the reason for the problem. "We are in good shape, even though it is a shame we are so far behind, because the gap to Hamilton is pretty big. "But we will keep pushing and put pressure on our competitors, who are still very strong. We must be aggressive."
There you go. Stefano Domenicali looks at and knows where Kimi has improved or not, and we all could see that since Indy Kimi was improving his pace with the Ferrari, he simply took a while longer than Alonso with his McLaren. How are these school reject journalists supposed to know what is causing the results? They don’t. Because they’re rejects who rely on silly ideas and theories. I can gurantee you that Kimi will put shame on the whole grid, with more flawless and lightening quick drives, with Michael Schumacher watching it right infront of his face!
Make sure you’ve read Kimi’s column further down this page, he aims to break the Nurburgring jinx, since we’re speaking of superstitious things lol.
And look, Kimi does behave very much like a proactive driver; check out what he did in qualifying for the British GP: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dHCy-J7Bh6A Kimi is a strong driver when he also has a heavier fuel load, like in France and Silverstone, and he seems to understand how to benefit from it more than other drivers. Good work Kimi!
