I like Nico, as I have stated in a previous post on this same thread, I reckon he is (nearly) as fast as Lewis when things are perfect. He has the Finnish speed and control that, without meaning to nationalistically stereotype, gives him a head start on others

The difference is that he is just not as hungry or determined as Lewis which is maybe a cultural thing. However as far as sheer balls or pace I would rate him second to Lewis in 1 lap winner takes all.
He is just not consistent or hungry or relentless as Lewis. Thats why its such a great pairing, he pushes Lewis by being there if Lewis slips up, and he massively improves his game by having Lewis as an example of sheer sporting excellence

Nico goes missing too often, not because he isnt as quick as Lewis or Seb, but because he is too smart to expend more energy that he thinks he needs to achieve

Ps. And I like his style. No bitching, no moaning, no whining, no backstabbing, no politicking. My kind of guy!

That's exactly how I describe Kimi!! :wavey:

Yes. Though two very different personalities , they both share those attributes. They get on with the driving.

I like Rosberg too, and not just because of his lovely hair. He doesn't seem like a wrangler during races though. He goes all out in Q then seems to go into his shell come the race, like he's accepting the cars limitations. A lot of the drivers seems like that to me though - Button, Massa, Ricciardo, di Resta. I'm assuming Chilton does too, but how could you tell?

His moaning and whining is all conveniently translated to "that cool badboy James Hunt" persona for the media and his fans in general. (which are PLENTY)

To Vivian Sibold?


Nico has a pot-belly.

And his g/f has a damn fine arse.*

Edit:

*on reflection 'damn fine' may be pushing it. Its a nice enough arse, in a bikini bottom. Which is good enough in my books.

I have listened to his radio feed!! In fact, that's one of the reasons I don't mind getting up at ungodly hours for a race!!
I actually enjoy the anticipation that comes with waiting for the next "gem"!!

Uhmmm... James who??
