    Thought I'd share this Finnish TV show with you. It's an Interview with Kimi and then some driving around Fiorano track. English subtitles (added)
    I laughed several times.

    Enjoy!

    I haven't watched the video, but I'm curious if Kimi interviews about the Scud in the monotone, uninterested voice that he talks about F1 in...

    I really enjoyed that... thanks for posting.

    It seems Kimi "livened up" a bit when speaking with a Finnish reporter in his native language.

    Incredible car control... it would be fun to do that and NOT have to worry about the car :D

    Way too arrogant. I hate Kimi.

    I think if one of you logged in 50,000+km on the same track you'd be as good.

    Sure Kimi seems arrogant... most of the video is of him at the track where he's completely overwhelmed with adoring (annoying) fans. If you've ever hung around a celebrity in a public or semi-public setting, you'll know it really kind-of sucks to be famous. Rich and famous... no thanks. I'll take the rich and leave the famous to someone else.

    I thought the OP's video showed a slightly different side of Kimi where he *wanted* to be interviewed and he *wanted* to drive the car around the track.

    I don't think so- he was smiling the whole time. Besides, the guy in the suit is one of the operations guys for the F1 team- he's in the pits at all the races. It seemed more tongue-in-cheek and done for the reporter's benefit- "Hey, Montezemolo can wait, I'm talking to this reporter!"

    What I do like about Kimi is his honesty and never sugar coating anything. But his attitude just sucks. Especially when he was with McLaren and his car would blow-up, he’d push corner workers. Have some respect you little twerp, these guys/gals are volunteering there time and putting their life on the line to insure you’re driving in a safe environment and you push them. What a spoiled little brat.

    I think if you’re a car enthusiast and have the balls to drive fast, if you log the amount of laps Kimi / Massa have you’d be able to pull very close laps times (in a road car).
