Still the press keeps on repeating his words as a mantra and it's been hell to see how it has stuck - it's like 'Kimi is unmotivated' all over again
Actually I didn't wish for anyone specific to win, only repeated in my head 'may justice be served' without thinking who deserves justice and who doesn't, I only wanted to see a fair battle.

it looks likely that Webber will be in RB in 2011. wome quotes from him:
also, right after the race Christian Horner said that Mark was a good team player (can't find video so far).
It looks like it is good news - Kimi stays in WRC. just need to wait for the official.
By the way - Hulk is out of Williams and there are rumors that Massa migh be pushed out of Ferrari in his favour by Hulk's manager
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsp ... 188340.stmWhen asked if he would definitely be at Red Bull this time next year, he replied: "Yes."
Webber, whose victory at the Turkish Grand Prix made him the first Australian since Alan Jones in 1981 to head the standings, added: "There were a lot of positives this year.
"This weekend didn't turn out and it's a shame, but I'll have a good time to reflect in the next few weeks and look at the highs and the lows. That's the way sport is sometimes.
"There are quite a few emotions. I think two championships for the team is not a bad effort for us. I fully congratulate Seb on the world championship."

Which is the other option?In 2011 Citroën wants to bet on Raikkonen, and Solberg Sordo
Places are scarce in the World Rally Championship and Citroën draws all eyes. Sébastien Loeb Sébastien Ogier and thus has this been confirmed as the formal structure of pilots for next season, the Junior Team Citroën becomes a particularly attractive promised land.
For many months, the Citroen reiterates its desire to keep Dani Sordo at his side, in this structure 'B'. Still without a contract when leaving Cardiff, the Spaniard has however taken advantage of this end of the season to confirm his negotiations with Prodrive, to reach Kris Meeke, driving the Mini that will play a part in the 2011 WRC season .
That was enough for Olivier Quesnel less emphasis last night on his interest to Sordo, despite a mixed 2010 campaign in which the Spaniard was unable to detach himself from his role as bearer of water. "Dani is part of the family, because we can not forget that we won two titles with him. He scored points Constructors past two years, "recalled the boss of Citroën Racing. "Unfortunately, we must find the full budget for Dani and it will be very complicated. But we may be an opportunity waiting to see. "
For his part, Kimi Raikkonen was surprisingly talkative to Cardiff, revealing have two options for the upcoming season, including one that would see him continue his career in the World Rally Championship. Also surrounded by rumors of his ties with Mini or Ford with Monster, the Finn is an asset that Citroën brand will not refuse to bear if the opportunity presents itself. But the brand lights can also count on a third ace in his hand, in the person of Petter Solberg who does not hide his desire to continue his career in a more comfortable environment than his private team. "We were delighted with the solution found with Petter and Kimi this year, and we will do our best to find a solution for both," said Olivier Quesnel.
Maybe the thing with Häkkinen?
Re: Speculation-thread: Will Kimi be in WRC or F1 next seaso
It´s really sad that Kimi´s future seems to be pending due to financial issues. Last year the thing with Santander and this year with those required sponsors. Even if manages to find some sponsors, how can he be motivated to drive for a team who regards him as "too slow" but who keeps him nonetheless because he pays enough for the seat???!!!
Come on, Kimi, for God´s sake, return to F1!

Re: Speculation-thread: Will Kimi be in WRC or F1 next seaso
so my nerves were actually telling me the right thing all this while - that kimi would not return to f1 anymore... I wish him the best but I am one of those who have not taken to rallying at all despite the fact that it is not a sport for the faint of hearts. I find no joy in having no way to see a race in real time and that there is no wheel-to-wheel. And I also find no joy that kimi will languish in the mid-tiers for the years to come. But it is his wish and dream, so I will move on in terms of f1 - and this time, I will not support anyone unless I intend to jinx them - Ferrari and Alonso, I got my eyes on you, muahhhahahahahah
wolfie,
when I was absolutely sure vettel would not win it and that alosno would, my jinxing powers returned - just like in 2007, when I was sure it was in hamilton's bag i will support the red team with all of my heart from now on until certain people responsible for the way they treated kimi r no longer in the team...btw, I thought I read somewhere that monte was asked by someone powerful to be sacked - but it was in italian, anyone got that article translated in english? cheers!

... And then there's also Kimi Raikkonen, who this year went for the junior team of the French, but for the next year has several offers. "We were pleased with the solution we have found this year with Petter and with Kimi, and we will do our best to find a solution for both," says Quesnel - without testifying much.

They are pleased with the solution they found but they have to find a solution?

Also it has come to light that the penalty that Vettel got in Hungary was in an attempt to help the team get a 1-2, it was not a casual error. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/88309Iana wrote:Nicest guy in F1! I'm so happy for him.Wolfie wrote:brendakarli wrote: The Real Champion
He had already helped Webber and the team. This was a strong indication of how good a team player he was. He did not even mention it afterwards. Webber should have surely known this. Yet he has cried foul multiple times.

@ Brenda, I'm starting to believe in you
@ Dheeban, interesting information and it could very well be true
One more time:
A friend is going to meet Seb after two weeks and she is going to give Seb a birthday present where she also collects names of those who have supported Seb during the hard times this year.
So only if you have supported Seb while everybody was bashing him, please send your name and country to me by PM or to my e-mail nicole@kolumbu.fi
And out of respect for Seb, only those who really supported him
About this picture again, can you see how genuine the guy is with tears in his eyes
To be changed soon - rko281, where are you??? LOL

Re: Speculation-thread: Will Kimi be in WRC or F1 next seaso
A little bit off topic but I just watched a few beautiful words from Sebastian Vettel about Kimi on ServusTV. He said more or less the same he told yesterday to Kulta, but this time it was the ServusTV moderator who asked.
I have missed the rest of the interview, though. And Mark Webber is also there!
