yeah, and Ogier seems to be the next wdc material. Kimi is a talented guy but sometimes you´re not the best at things you really like. I like singing BUT I don´t believe I´m really good in it :lol:
Oh, you judge him by just these rallies? I've said before that I don't think he could be WDC in rally too but I wouldn't say he's not good at it. Others have been doing it for years... and Kimi's already can go faster than some of them! :zz:
Agree with you, Kinga! He has talent and if he stays in WRC he will take the championship one day. People forget so easily that all the others have been rallying for years in national series etc. whereas Kimi jumped in as a real rookie. First time he drove the WRC-car was in January.
Also, I didn't say Kimi cannot be WDC in rally because he hasn't got the talent but because the rally is more scheduled than F1. There's a driver who can win and nobody else. I bet once Loeb retires Ogier will be that man.

@Lynx'niK: yes, I think that too. He can win maybe some races in rally.

Am I the only one who still prefers to see him back in F1? Not that I dun appreciate this forum that brings me all the latest stuff on kimi, but I hate not being able to see him on TV or driving more than just tiny segments on you tube! After what Horner said, I feel like his return is completely not gonna happen and I have to settle for this setup for the rest of his career ::oops:;

Maybe WRC's TV visibility will increase in near future.

Worry not. We surely have better things in store. Be it F1 or WRC. Kimi will always be a reason for joy in our life.

I think he will get him and Mads Ostberg too (maybe even getting Wilson is possible). :)

@brendakarli: I want him in F1!!!! I still believe that will happen! :blush: just try to enjoy this year with him but deep in my heart I keep praying for his return to F1. Even if that's a greedy world with lots of bad stuff Kimi doesn't like but his place is there among the fastest cars on Earth. Where he can be the best!

I´m proud what our Kimster does. He´s really incredible, but I don´t feel deep in my heart that he achieve his goal. I believe that he can win some "races" but that´s all. As long he has fun it´s okay. :O

Hey guys, it´s just a feeling, but you have to underwrite that this mission will be rally really tough, you know the others can still also develop but hey as long he´s happy, everything is fine :hug:
Well, its hard to judge it. Usually we don't even see the other guys at this stage. Kimi is still learning the basics. Normally a total rookie doesn't go and compete with the top of his class.
