**gomick** · 9 Sep 2000, 15:05 (Ref:35979)

where is he, didnt see his name in formula renault qualifying.

Lee Purnell · 9 Sep 2000, 17:01 (Ref:35999)

Probably doesn't care, he has already won the title

It has to be said though, the boy done good.
The next Mika do you think?

Räikkonen is about to test Sauber this week and won't take part on last British Formula Renault races. He will compete in Euro Formula Renault (or what ever...

) That is what they have informed here in Finland.

Carrie · 11 Sep 2000, 18:35 (Ref:36499)

The commentators at Oulton said he wasn't there because of National Service back in Finland.

National Service????? ROTF!!!!

i posted this over a year ago

.... kimi has gone a long way since

.... that sauber test obviously went pretty well

.... seems the youngster is now going to rumble at mclaren in 2002

Just goes to show how much things can change in a year...

Perhaps this is a good idea, to drag some old topics up every now and then - for nostalgia purposes... *sniff*

Now Hakka has gone Kimi is surely the only driver in the pack other than JPM who can give Schuey a run for his money.

We are talking a real racing driver here. The right stuff. World class. Coulthard this boy is gonna kick your Kryton butt. He's so good he's one of only about three of the current crop who could have cut it in the turbo's in the mid 1980's.

Who else has made other drivers look so stupid under braking (Button in particular) this year? This is someone who will frighten other drivers out of the way.

The nice thing is he doesn't give a **** about being famous. All he wants to do is race race race.

Pizzonia is the next big thing and possibly Sato. Villeneuve could have been a contender but (well he said it) his best is behind him. Unless Ferrari give him a contract! Schuey would just lurv that! Nice to dream isn't it?

A shame Murray's gone because I'd have loved to have heard him go go go when Kimi JPM and Shuey eventually get it together.

I belong to the "wait and see" people here. He might be that good - then again he might not. He hasn't exactly wiped the floor with Heidfeld this season now, has he, and I still think Nick should have got that second McLaren seat. If Kimi wipes the floor with DC and challenges TGF and JPM next year, I'll be more than happy to eat my words.

Well personally I do not like Coulthard because he complains too much, but one has to admit that he is a good racing driver. I think Kimi will be better than Coulthard in the future, but not next year. On more thing on Nick, I think he is in the top 5 of racers, so he is a good person to get compared with. So lets wait and see, oh and one more thing cheer.

**gomick** · 4 Oct 2001, 00:59 (Ref:155634)

heidfeld has been very impressive, if he is as impressive again next year, he could replace dc....unless ferrari steal him

R · 4 Oct 2001, 06:56 (Ref:155685)

I certainly hope Heidfeld ends up in a Ferrari or a Mac. In that case, Germany will have their next World Champion.

DNQ · 4 Oct 2001, 22:23 (Ref:156037)

Heidfeld is brilliant. Yet he gets practically no coverage in the media. I really hope he gets a top seat - he deserves it.
