"He's a f**king idiot. I want to hit him when I see him!"

"Obviously I am pleased to have many fans. Who would not want? But to be honest, I have no idea why people like me."

"Do you really think I would be here if it was just about money?" Raikkonen hit back.  "I do enough fun things in my spare time than to have to listen to this bullsh*t."

"There is always a lot of talk about the motivation but nobody really knows what I do or what I think except for myself, so I don't really care about what people say."

"There's always talk about my motivation, written by people who don't know me and couldn't have an idea on how strong my motivation is. If I didn't feel I had the motivation, I would stop. My feeling is that I probably drove some of my best races in my last season in Formula One and I was very happy with my performance. I've never had any issues with motivation."

Vodka, ice-creams in the garage, rallying, snow-mobile racing, gorilla suit connoisseur, hitched to former miss Finland, James Hunt appeal, a vacant stare, talks like a Dalek, 1970s caps, Elton John glasses and some people call this guy boring? I wish we had more characters like him in F1 Posted Image

You must not have heard the MC at the Japanese GP. After the trophies were handed out and the 3 on the podium were given their huge Champagne bottles, you hear this voice of some dude screaming out the word Champagne almost like those South American guys who scream Goooooaaaaaalllllll. I've never heard anything like it, it was kinda of bizarre in a way. It's like he became embarrassed part way through but kept saying it until his voice faded away. Worth checking out and then having a laugh. It might even by meme worthy.

I thought you meant this bit from poor Felipe. Sometimes his clumsiness is almost endearing.

Yeah, I thought it was Massa prematurely spewing on the podium as well.

Andres, cut the guy some slack - he's not been on the podium for a while now so confusion is expected. And he's on his own, no Rob Smedley on the radio..

Posted Image Yeah, poor Massa, he is a nice guy and tries so hard...I find him one of the most human characters on the grid whne he does this kind of stuff.

But, boy, if there's even been proof that nice guys finish last...

We keep on working, we do our thing, Vettel shouts over the team radio,We are who we are!

"Vettel is a champion. That’s not referring to his achievements, but rather to his approach to everything he does. He wins. All the time. His preparation is meticulous, his attention to detail reminiscent of Michael Schumacher at his peak, and his performance on the track is almost always flawless. Vettel is capable only of domination. He knows no other way... Vettel is not in Formula One to be liked. He is there to win. And in the words of Ayrton Senna, perhaps the greatest of all Formula One drivers, “Nice men don’t win.”"
Chris Cameron-Dow


"One might be tempted to say Ferrari are inconsistent this year. I think the opposite.
They are having one very good race followed by one very poor race. Consistently.

I heard that same MC guy do the same champaaaaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnneeeeee call again for the V8 Supercar race in Abu Dhabi. He must be part of the regular podium crew for each race. Still havn't found a vid on youtube yet with this on it.
