Kimi takes a reporter for a drive in F430 Scuderia

Practicing for his post Ferrari drifting career.

 

Few observations:
1. Beautiful car in that color.
2. Kimi totally wiped out and tried to make it look intentional...
3. You could understand what the reporter was saying without understanding a word of Finnish.....he was speaking international Ferrari!
5. It doesn't matter whether Kimi speaks Finnish or English...he sounds exactly the same and I can't understand him either way!
6. Kimi is a midget.

 

i do hope!


Only hearing his name get me started off. This non-commercial, non-technical, not-knowing-anyone-to-interest-in-anything should not have gone to Ferrari in the first place. Now with even his new contract, he'll even stay longer. These few years seem to have lasted as long as all the years with Michael. What a drag...

I do admirrer Montezemelo for bringing Ferrari back on the highest levels but hiring this self proclaimed talent was a big mistake.

I cannot wait for him to leave.

 

cool video; in regards to #6; I met him in Montreal; he was taller than I expected; probably 5'10 or so.....

 

i doubt he;s that tall. i met him back in 2006, i stood beside him and took pics. he's roughly about my height. i'm 5'5-5'6

 

nice video that track was wet

 

if it was an intenional wipe out or not. How freaking cool would it be to get a ride along with a Formula one driver much less a world champion in a Ferrari. Bloody cool if you ask me. Cool video as well.

Here is the video with english subtitles.

Wow, he couldn't even pretend to be excited by the car. What an incredibly dull man

 

Anyone else notice his tattoo on the right wrist, even though he likes to party I never thought of him as a tattoo kind of guy.

 

Looked like Kimi was being his happy go lucky self!

 

He should show a little more excitement when talking about Ferraris, even if he had to fake it!

 

He looked like he was enjoying himself!

 

That was fantastic, and comical as is always with Kimi. Anyone else notice on the longer youtube vid that he started speaking English when LDM arrived, when the guy in the suit tried to come and see LDM but he just told him to F*** off. Legend.

 

Yeah that was Gino Rosato in the suit, he's some sort of operations manager for the F1 team.

 

Pretty cool driving, it was just pure fun for him but compared to Schumi he is very reckless with the car haha. MS usually tries to put the least amount of stress on the car where as KR goes pretty hard on it. He needs to improve on his public relation skills, he is too straight up (its good and bad).

 

He is actually a nice guy, I have talked to him in the Ferrari garage at a couple of races. He is always in the garage during the races.

 

I just get the feeling that Kimi is not all about Ferrari.

And it won't be long before he is replaced by Alonso.

Alonso and Vettel at Ferrari!

 

One is not supposed to have a life at that level, that is why Schumi was actually relieved to retire. In an interview he was aksed if he lkissed F1 and he said that he was enjoying having a life too much to want to go back. To be the best it consumes one, and all energies are focused on beating all others also operating at that level. If Kimi prefers having a life over being at Ferrari in F1 then he should leave.....my guess is Enzo would have sensed that lack of commitment and booted him out anyway.

 

+1.
