What do you want Kimi Raikkonen?
Kimi Raikkonen, the former world champion, the guy who barely won the championship in 2007, has been involved in so much activity related to Formula 1 since the past couple of months but claimed in his recent statement that he does not want to return to
the sport anymore? I guess he does not want to drive and think at the same time. He just wants to drive in the World Rally Championship with no worries about his car or anything and just keep driving like a lunatic through forests and deserts with another
person telling him where to drive.
How can he even stay in that sport after experiencing Formula 1 at its best? Kimi Raikkonen drove a Ferrari before retiring and before that, he was a part of McLaren for most of his season. He was with the best teams in the sport through almost his entire
career. He did not help McLaren at all during his time with the team and Ferrari literally handed him the title. Kimi was the least favourite driver for the season but won the championship after Lewis retired from the final race.
Even though Kimi has been with the best teams throughout his career, he has not achieved anything as compared to people like Lewis Hamilton, Fernando Alonso or even Sebastian Vettel. What the h**l was he doing in Formula 1 anyway?
It was revealed a couple of months ago that the Fin asked the team boss of Renault about his chances of returning to Formula 1 with Renault. Kimi confirmed asking this, but later on as the team boss started to think about it and stated that the team might
get Kimi back, Kimi suddenly backed out and said that he asked the team only once and did not ask them again. Without even thinking that Renault, one of the front running teams might have signed him for the 2011 season of Formula 1. He even stated that he
does not intend to return to the sport anytime soon.
Ok, let’s go back in time when Kimi was a kid. He always wanted to be a Formula 1 driver, it was like an obsession for him. He was known for his aggression but he never used it in a good way. Like Lewis Hamilton, he is an aggressive and entertaining driver
as was the most active driver on the track race after race. He has been a pain in the neck for McLaren as well but let’s not get in to that. The point is, why would Kimi slam his only chance of returning to the sport again?
He is already being criticized for everything he does and never makes the right decisions. It is like a malfunctioned R2D2 has been managing him since the past couple of years.
The only respectable decision he made was when he decided to leave Formula 1 because he was not getting an offer from a strong team. That is understandable. But why would you not want to return to the sport with Renault? He is currently driving in the World
Rally Championship and is not doing a good job there either.
At first he claimed he wanted to return to the sport, now he claims he does not and that Renault was being childish about this whole matter. Renault was just trying to create a stage for you Kimi. He might leave the WRC by the end of this year as his contract
is going to expire. He does not even know what he wants. By the end of the day, the only question on every one’s mind is “What do you want Kimi Raikkonen?”
