    Many people at McLaren still love Raikkonen; in many ways he's
    the perfect McLaren driver.
    For a team that grounds their engineering in pure mathematics and
    physics, to have an unemotional, repetitive - almost robotic -
    driver in the car is much easier than having a man who is
    inconsistent and variable.
    You'll never be able to prove anything with an inconsistent
    driver, because you'll never know if what you're changing on the
    car is working.
    McLaren engineers still talk with wonder about Raikkonen's
    consistent lap times. He was so good, they say, because he would
    come back to the pits, say what was wrong, they would fix it and
    he would go out and go faster. Simple.

    "When people criticize Kimi for not able to "develop" a car, I
    just cannot understand their argument because a driver will just
    let the "engineers" and "mechanics" know how the car feels etc
    etc and what he thinks can be done to fix or improve. I remember
    Chris Dyer saying "Kimi talks very very little but whatever he
    says has a lot of info". This I guess was also Whitmarsh's
    statement along the lines that "when Kimi talks, you better
    listen". Dyer went on to say the difference between MS and KR is
    that MS would ask about the wind tunnel data etc etc before
    trying out a new part on the car where as KR would say "Put it
    on
    and let us see how it goes. He also said KR is very sensitive to
    changes in the car and gives good feedback, even if he talks
    little."


    "One thing the Ferrari engineers have been amazed at is just how
    much oversteer he likes in a car. The more you dial in, the
    faster he seems to go. It gives him instant direction change but
    his great feel, precision and speed of input can then dampen down
    what would normally be the negative consequences of that.
    At first they struggled to believe just how he could do that -
    but now they know. They have also seen a little insight into that
    fantastic high-speed precision the McLaren guys used to rave
    about. When he's really in the zone, they say, he's forced them
    to recalibrate their ideas of what is possible.

    When that was said to me, I thought I might be misinterpreting
    it, so to make sure, I said: "What, even after Michael?" I
    received a straight-in-the-eyes response: "Yes."

    Tessék hitetlenek, bár nem hiszem, hogy ez meggyőzne valakit is gyuélusék szavával szemben.
