Typical Kimi 
The thing is though, he 'does' know what he is doing. I can't remember the last time he made a mistake. Although I'm sure someone will be kind enough to remind me!

Kimi had survived 20 laps driving on a heavily flat spotted tyre, but his luck ran out on the last lap. The vibration caused from the flat spotted tyre caused a catastrophic failure of the suspension. He had been informed to pit but decided against it and carried on pushing

Kimi's brilliant, his lack of giving a **** during interviews is legendary.

Plus he really doesn't take any ****. It is his way, or no way.
May be that's why if didn't work out at Ferrari. (Although it did net him his only World Championship to date).
He doesn't mess about when it comes to buying boats either. He owns a rather tasty Sunseeker named 'MY Iceman'! I only know this because I have supplied spares for the Arneson Surface Drives that it runs.
I did say to my boss that I could hand deliver them to Monaco. Surfice to say we used DHL.

kimi and his race engineer go way back and have worked together for a very long time which is why he can talk to him how he does... i dont think he would speak to another team member in the same way if he didnt have that relationship with them

His race engineer could see his tyre temps dropping something Kimi couldnt see, so it was a good call. He does seem to have a communication problem.
Sponsors dream?

I was so happy when Kimi won. He was entertaining BUT he drove well and had a clear head.
I found his, and Seb's comments amusing but understood why the toffs got upset as children do watch the race also.
