  • Quotes from Kimi Raikkonen.

    Collection of Kimi's famous words


    I stumbled upon this one on the PF1 forum (credit NeverCryWolf)

    Montoya's success in NASCAR?- It doesn't even interest me.

    Will these tyres benefit your driving style? - I don't know and it doesn't mean anything to me. Tyres are what they are.

    What advice would you give to the rookies Nico Rosberg and Scott Speed? - I hope that they are good in giving way.

    Do you think that the speed is good at this point? - It doesn't matter how much behind the others we are at this point. The car will anyway be rebuilt before Australia. Now we just drive around.

    Media's interest in Kimi after the WC? - They have thrown a lot of xxxx on me but I think that I'll get even more of it now.

    Schumacher's role : - He doesn't come and tell us drivers anything. And at least I don't need his advice.

    Montoya's points: - If he believes in it, he can believe. I'm not interested in what happens behind me.

    Gossip Media asks how are you prepared for the season? - I usually get to read from your magazines what I have done.

    Montoya's tennis accident: - We don't call and I'm not interested in what he does.

    "If the army would be volunteer I wouldn't go there - Kimi about women in army

    Austria 2002: - I haven seen it. I'm not the least bit interested in what Ferrari did.

    Alonso teasing Kimi. - I couldn't care less what the man is thinking.

    Weather conditions: - It's all the same if it rains or not.

    Season 2006: - It doesn't interest me yet what is going to happen. You'll see it then.

    An Italian interviewer tries to get Kimi to say something in Italian. - You can talk Italian if you want to.

    Ferrari event 2007: - I'm not going to a language school to learn Italian, that's not what I came to do at Ferrari.

    Kimi, what's the 5th grid place like? - I'ts the 5th grid place.

    Ferrari party: - Ferrari's own partys are the best one. I don't know exactly what I will do there. Maybe I'm Santa Claus.

    Party at the President's castle: - Someone else will have to dance with her (Jenni).

    Party at the President's castle: - Ah, go and interview Mikko Leppilampi. He likes to talk.

    Kimi, what is your feeeling before the race? - It's allright.

    French GP 2002: - xxxx race.

    Hungarian GP 2007: - Boring race.

    OHO!-magazine number 46/2006: - I read somewhere that I drive with the luck of a drunk.

    Opinion of Ron Dennis: - He's strange now and then. He always wants to know everything. He doesn't interest me.

    - My life would be much more easier had I been a f1-driver in the 70's with the guys. I was definitely born in the wrong era.

    What makes TAG Heuer special? - It's ok.

    Kimi, you speak a little bit? - Yeah, one two.. three..

    What kind of an atmosphere do you think McLaren has right now (the spy saga)? - I bet it's fxcking great.

    - The Constructor's Championship doesn't really mean anything to me.

    - I'm not interested in what Jackie says. He hasn't got anything to do with me.

    - Coulthard can say what he wants. I'm not interested in what he's saying.

    - I don't give a damn about what Trulli says.

    - Montoya's comments doesn't interest me.

    - It doesn't matter what he says. (Kimi about Hamilton's defences after Canada GP)

    - I've seen him (Schumacher) twice: when the car was displayed and in one testing he came to but I left almost immediately after that.

    - You don't drive races on paper.

    - Driving is the only thing I love about f1.

    - If there's a red light when you leave the pitlane you have to stop. Then some wooden eye (Hamilton) crashes into you and breakes the car.

    - What the papers write about me afterwards makes me laugh.

    - Formula 1 would be a paradise without the media.

    - I'm not interested in what people think about me. I'm not Michael Schumacher.

    - The circuit broke totally. Every year same thing happens. They promise to fix it. They probably should hire the guys from Lemminkäinen (Finnish asphalt company) to fix it.

    How does it feels to drive at 300 km/h? - "It feels normal"

    Your idols? - There aren't any.

    What kind of a relationship do you have with Peter Sauber? - He is my boss.

    Is he a father figure or a god father? - He is my boss.

    The helmet has a special meaning for many drivers. How important is it to you? - It protects my head.

    Do you have any special rituals when the helmet is concerned like many have? - I wipe it so that I can see better.

    What would you if you met an alien, run away out of fear or try to talk to him? - The problem won't arise so I don't imagine meeting one.

  • F1 joke

    Off on F1 - F1's New Year's Resolutions


    No driver or team manager is perfect (even if some think they are), there's always room for improvement. Off On F1 has come up with some common sense suggestions for F1's major players to adopt in 2009...

    F1 Drivers
    Be nice on the radio in 2009. From now on, everyone will be able to hear you. Let's not have any more Juan-Pablo moments broadcast on the world TV feed; as in "F***ing Raikkonen!" (Though the plan to make all radio traffic available might go the same way as the televised driver briefings we were going to have...and never got).

    Jenson Button
    Find some interesting new hobbies just in case that mythical Honda buyer never shows up. As you've got a beard all you need to go trainspotting now is a notepad and an anorak.

    Lewis Hamilton
    Don't say things like: "Nobody overtakes me round the outside!" because when it happens at the very first corner of the very next race, you look a bit of an arse.

    Luiz Antonio Massa
    Wait for the result before you start to celebrate.

    Robert Kubica
    Lose some weight, chubby, that single chocolate you had at Christmas has really tipped the scales.

    Felipe Massa
    Green doesn't necessarily mean Go under the Ferrari pit light system. (Though we suspect you've figured this out).

    Flavio Briatore
    Ferrari passed their good engines on to Toro Rosso, Flav, so do the same with Renault engines for Red Bull. It's the least you could do as you nicked their engine cover.

    Mark Webber
    Watch out for the 4x4...

    Luca Montezemolo
    If it comes down to a Ferrari vs McLaren scrap in the last race of 2009, mount the TV on the wall at a minimum height of 1.3 metres, so you can't easily get your foot up to it. Oh, and try not to present Bernie Ecclestone with the opportunity for Sports Quote of 2008 by comparing the Singapore GP to a circus. (Bernie's riposte was that if Singapore was a circus, we have to be greatful to Ferrari for providing the clowns.)

    Bernie Ecclestone

    Get your wad out Bernard Charles, 2009 is going to be expensive. Slavicia wants the yacht and the house and FOTA want the shop.

    Max Mosley

    Don't go down to the cellar, Max. Or should that be 'in' the cellar...

    Michael Schumacher
    Look, if Lance Armstrong can come out of retirement to ride the Tour de France...

    Nelson Piquet Junior
    Try a bit harder in 2009. But not too hard that Fernando gets worried. By the way, the hair's still looking lovely, the L'Oreal contract can't be far off now.

    David Coulthard
    Good luck on your new career as BBC's F1 pundit. Now, you might as well get it over with and call the BBC's football/NFL/ F1 presenter Jake Humphry a vacuous, talentless, gawky tw*t in the first programme. You're going to be thinking it all spring and all summer so you might as well get it out of your system.

  • F1 in Sydney

    Well I think that Fiat should join the fray and mayge enter a tean under either the Alfa Romeo, or Maserati banner, of both... would be just like old times for me...

    The first two F1 WDC's in 1950 & 51 were won by Nino Farina and Juan Manuel Fangio in Alfa's while Fangio won the 1954 driving a Maserati and a Mercedes, not to mention that the 56 one was won by Fangio driving Lancia/Ferrari.. (Lancia is now also under the Fiat umbrella)... Nor to forget that Fangio also won the 55 C ship driving just Mercedes.

    (have to set the VCR)

  • Barrichello tells all

    No, everyone knows what was going on at Austria in 02, and it is not (and will not be) the only time that it has happened... I wonder what Rubens hopes to gain by spilling his guts now. (6 years after the event)?

    Posted 25 Nov 08

  • Grand Premio do Brazil 2008. (Interlagos) Sao Paulo

    The last GP of the year, will be held on Sunday 2nd Nov at 3.00pm (local Brazil time), which equates to 3.00am Mon AEST.
