right. kimi had literally twice as many fastest laps in 2008 than the rest of the effin grid combined (12 vs 6), so you know what, your absolutely right. he was slow as fuck.
Räikkönens lack of motivation after his championship is legendary. But disputing his speed is idiotic. He's so far amassed 35 fastest laps over his career. Meanwhile, Alonso Hamilton and Button have 36 *combined*. Kimi would destroy his opponents if he had the kind of obsessive attitude to winning like Schumi or A. Senna or Hamilton.
6 cars in 4 turns. He could've whooped more if not for the safety car. But then again, his engine gave way... lets just hope Renault can give him a reliable car!
@chapmana22 but you know that alonso was fighting in 2010 for the championship had 50 points more than massa and ferrari know that alonso is faster than massa you can see in the qualyfings he is 0.5 faster in every track and 2011 it is the same
@GForce429 They want to kick him out im sure but you cant do that after such an accident, after this season though i think things will be different, I wouldnt be surprised if massa gets replaced at ferrari.
disagree. massa has the talent. we've seen it. he was one place and a very fortunate McLaren away from winning the title a few years back, and it took team orders to get Alonso past him last year, this is the new Barrichello to Schumacher story, which is a shame, he is a class act, he wouldn't be where he is if he wasnt... alonso is number one and ferrari wont do anything that gets in Fernandos way. :/
lol all the reactions:D most of them are really kimi fans like me, and proberly also die hard mika fans, and you all where there when mika had a hell of 2 fantastic years! and you all agree (i think) that just like mika, kimi did some verry special things.
kimi and massa are both verry good drivers but massa doesnt have (IT)
kimi would of won d championship in 08 only his extauct broke in france would of won monaco but d team fucked dat up for him spa should of won but caught in tracffic overtakin hamilton and lost control and all ya`s r sayin massa is better he wouldn`t of won france or spa only kimi had problems.. kimi would of won d championship....
@TheFormulaOne2 Yes I know, I´m saying why he didn´t get closer to the next car in front of him, not overtake him, just more closer for when the restart begin, he could have a better position to overtake on green flag.
Massa was guilty of: Failing in Australia and Malaysia, off the pace in Belgium, and I'll count Britain for the heck of it.
Let's see. Raikkonen got trashed by Massa in Bahrain, he got swamped by Massa in Turkey, Raikkonen failed in Monaco, was miles off the pace in Hungary and Germany, was absolute crap in Italy, had a fail in Singapore, couldn't beat Kubica in Fuji, couldn't beat Alonso in Brazil..
@Anime998877 lol the way you say it, "trashed by massa" and "swamped by massa". I remember Raikkonen wasn't even 5 seconds behind him in both races, if I remember very well it was for both races like 3-4 secs. Like I said Ferrari preferred Massa and Kimi wasn't allowed to attack Massa
Now that is ridiculous, Massa and Raikkonen were allowed to battle each other ALL year just like 2007. ONLY when Raikkonen's championship hopes were gone they began favouring Massa, just like in 2007 when Massa's hopes were gone they began favouring Raikkonen. Winning margins are also dumb, we know how the leaders back off at the end nowadays to conserve the car.
@Anime998877 oh you are crazy.you are getting in all kimi's videos and you write negative comments for him and positive for massa. mama mia you are unbelievable.you said i am biased.what kind of person you are.maybe you are friends with massa.
Kimi has no reason to come back to F1. He was good but not worth 36,000 a lap! He hated the media, especially the interviews (he openly admitted that). He just wanted to race and enjoy what he does without all the media attention. In rallying he has very little, if any.
i think that kimi in mclaren was the fastest f1 driver in that period...this was the iceman we know...ferrari destoy him in all ways...hope kimi come back and remember mclaren time...
Err. Raikkonen was getting paid 5 times as much as Massa was, AND he won a world championship for them - so why the hell would they pay no attention to him??? About Alonso, he's the fastest driver on the grid. If Raikkonen instead of Massa had partnered him this year at ferrari the result would have been the same.
@Anime998877 Why would they pay no attention to Kimi anymore? Let me tell you, Jean Todt gave his position to stupid Italian Domenicali that year while he was the only one who understood what type of guy Kimi is and ordered the team to do as Kimi said. When the Italian idiot got the lead we all know they chose Massa's side cuz we all know the Italians prefer Massa instead of Kimi.
@BladedBacklash rumours said he might enter Renault also instead of RedBull. Steve Slater said that he has increased his demand for annual pay and because no team in F1 has that much money to pay him yearly so he might not return......maybe he is not interested....
@5AMM0608 I personally hope he does return, always liked him. He also said he would only return to a championship winning team. Idk if Renault will be there next year, they certainly do look strong this year.
@BladedBacklash no idea at all....new rumours are that Robert Kubica and Massa might exchange places..Kubics mighgt move in Ferrari and Massa might takes Kubica's place in Renault..... nothing is for sure...
@5AMM0608 I thought Kubica just resigned? Anyways I don't think Kubica will go anywhere. Stefano in Singapore's Friday Press Conference that Massa will be racing for Ferrari next year. But that doesn't mean alot!
@markie101uk Haha, I know.. Things I would do to drive a Formula 1 car, or at least own one for my garage, and be able to drive it on track every Sunday, with a big cup of iced coffee waiting for me after a few laps.
i wish it was that simple. there was one guy, who was even documented buying a ferrari f1 (2002 i guess) and it cost him 2 000 000 £ AND he was not allowed to have it to he's private garage. it remained at ferrari hq and he only got to drive it once! for furhter drives he would have to pay all the shipping, tyres, fuel ect, and the salaries of the mechanics! pretty lame shit for 2 mil, for that money i should be able to buy a ferrari and have a shit in the cockpit if a wanted!!! its all mine!!
