QUOTE
Kimi Raikkonen
“We were in a good position at the time of the first pit stop and then we made a mistake, fitting the rain tyres when the rain had yet to fall. And that was where my race was pretty much over. When the race was halted, the conditions were very difficult. There was so much water on the track and I was struggling to drive the car even in second gear. Clearly we cannot be happy with our start to the season: in Melbourne, I was the one to make a mistake and today it was the team, the result being we find ourselves without any points.”
No wonder Massa pretty outspoken lately.
I wonder, Ferrari ok with it? (Massa bashing the team) hmm.gif
Silap haribulan...he's the one replaced and not Kimi tongue.gif

hmm although he predicted smartly but he shud be more professional and sportmanship, fully cloth changing, eat icecream and drink coke will giv wrong impression that he will retired. I'm the fan of Kimi, saw him like tat yesterday im thinking in my mind WTF! he wan gave up? while the rest of drivers focusing and discussion with team members under the heavy rain... dissapointed in him...

Just like Jeremy Clarkson put it, "We need bad boys in F1 to keep it exciting. Now, we have Kimi in F1...."

He clearly knew that the race is over with the torrential rain.

yeah. i know that ist a good impression at all. but the fact to the matter is, he knew his race is over the moment ferrari made a very bad call for him to come for a pitting and change to full we tyres while there isnt any rain fall yet. i was there yesterday and seeing the ferrari changed to full wet through the big screen and i looked around there isnt any rain at all, i said to myself WTF are they doing to kimi =,=.

ps:i dun mind he does that coz ive been his fan after hakkinen retired and have been following him from mclaren to ferrari and i saw he did that kind of 'cool' 'so what' 'i dun give a damn' attitudes a lot of times. believe it or not, that what makes him kimi raikkonen for u. laugh.gif laugh.gif

iceman needs ice-cream, even in the rain

I kinda like the gamble with the wets, except i can't believe they let him take it.

From 6th place, even if the tyre switch was PRECISELY bang on time, it just takes 30-40 sec's for the front runner to do another tyre switch as well, which can happen in 1 lap's time. However if the gamble didn't pay off as it what happened he stood to lose 30s PER LAP. Not understand why you would gamble 1-5 laps (depending on when the rain really starts) of 30s slower to gain 30-40 sec's. Even if the God of rain told Kimi when the rain will come, it's still doesn't actually bring any tangible gain, as he was more than 30s off Button at the time of pit.

end rant..

yeap indeed bro. but at least we did some effort to make up more points to our pocket, dun we? look at mclaren, despite how bad the car is (same as ours) lewis still got some point and that is hugely important in the long run for the championship game. happy.gif

from what i read elsewhere is kimi's car punya KERS masuk air badly..instead of risking become electrocuted iceman safer to retire

no point as well he wana restart..16th and last and surely even restart will be behind SC and no overtaking

Ya, Kimi's car had KERS problem, though it may be a rouse.

They were considering if restart, to switch off the KERS and continue. But obviously that is no meaning..I heard this during live commentary, an Italian Ferrari spokesman said so.

Rob Smedley : felipe baby, stay cool, we bringing in the white visor....stay cool..we are in a good position laugh.gif

Altough I just watch this during replay(as I was at the circuit), its still one of the best moments in Sepang 09....it surely was an entertaining race nod.gif altough the ferrari's didnt do well......a lot of incidents.....a lot of overtaking......I saw Webber vs hamilton live taking each other in front of my eyes shocking.gif
