What Really Happened At Sakhir


Kimi's pit stop - from f1-live.com

4 days after Sakhir race....

These are few things that had happened during the race, of course which concerning my champion : Kimi Raikkonen. It's revealed that besides having unconvenient with his car setting, Kimi also had an ear infection while speeding on his F2008 in Sakhir. That made him outperformed during the race. Meanwhile, at his first pit stop, Kimi faced a trouble with the new installed pitstop lights system at Ferrari pitlane. This lights system replaced the presence of lollypop man. A green light will automatically turned when the fuel hose is removed. About the problem, Kimi just lightly commented : "There was a problem with the system, so it took a bit longer, but it didn't change much,"

Anyway, it's interesting to read what Kimi personally said in his website. He is NOT satisfied with the race result. "I always want to win. That is my only passion. Obviously being second does not give the best of the feelings for me. And it never will..." Winning is everything, but being on the leading position on drivers championship is also important. Kimi knows it, and I'm proud of his real character : always have the motivation to win. I'll wait for your next win at Barcelona, Kimi...
